JosieJ 11 Posted June 27, 2016 I had 3 incisions, pretty much in a straight line. Does anyone know why there is such a wide variety for number of incisions, placement, etc.. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ssflbelle 829 Posted June 29, 2016 I had hernia repair, gallbladder removed and the sleeve with 5 scars. No drain and I was not bothered by the incisions at all. It was the gas pains that did me in for over 3 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lema 236 Posted July 2, 2016 I think it may have with our height and weight.. The amount of incisions.. English is my 6th language so forgive me if my sentences don't make any sense at times! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
