Did you have a STARR procedure or did you have traditional incisions like most of us?

You probably need antibiotics. Feel better.

I developed an absess that turned into a staph infection. It was on the underside of my breast that was rubbing against the incision line. You will need to see your doctor and be treated with antibiotics. Mine is still not entirely healed and I've had it now for about 4 weeks. Request your medicine by liquid form, its much easier. Take care of yourself!

O im 8 weeks post op and i feel great. Except my belly button were they did surgery is leaking blood and Fluid and some green stuff. It is constantly wet. I could push on it and it would fill up. My surgeon is baffled i went in today for wound exploration surgery waited 7 hrs only to he sent home becuzz of no operating rooms. And surgeon saw a piece of dried greenstuff it looked like seaweed and said this worries him maybe leaky bowel or infection. But ive been on antibiotics for ten days and fluid does not stink anymore. Oh and the ct scan showed no major abcesses any suggestions

This is what ive been dealing with for the last 2 weeks just finished up antibiotics talked to surgeon today and is going to hold of on surgery due to the leaking has significantly slowe in the past 30 hrs plan b is anothet ct scan and opening it up

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
