How many incisions (holes) did you have?



Recommended Posts

That's interesting, Quince. Then you've got to be wondering what happened in there if they are denying the seventh one. Maybe they started to and then decided they didn't need to.

Yeah, I found it weird too, but I would gladly have 10-15 more unexplained punctures with the results I've had!! haha :)

I had 4 - 3 about half an inch long and 1 about an inch. I'm actually super impressed that my surgeon was able to get my stomach out through such a tiny hole!

I started out with 5 and after I had a leak and surgery to repair the septic damage and came out of the 19 day coma I had 12. Added to that now are 3 more from drains from a second leak at 18 months. So altogether there have been 15 holes on my stomach. I look like someone took a Gatling gun and shot me in the chest. Two years out and do I care... No because I am here and have survived. Will there be more I don't know..I think there are worse things then counting incisions.

yup I do believe there are.....just saying!
