Day 25 - The swelling comes and goes...
Wearing my support now and definately helping to keep the swelling at the sides at bay but the "lump" in the middle just below my belly button is full of fluid again so going to call the hospital on Monday and see if they can javelin me again to relieve the pressure.
The tight garments do work though as when you take them off the swelling comes back at the sides after about 20 minutes.
Anyway getting stronger by the day, although I am still walking gingerly I am now not struggling at all to sit up.
I have now removed the steri strips as they were dirty and I thought more of an infection risk than a benefit so can get a good look at the scar line and it is pretty fantastic, there is very little overlap and I think after a few months and three gallons of bio oil it will fade right away.
The dog ears are definately there though, one more than the other but they don't really bother me and to be honest are something to show people when I have had too much champagne!
Got friends up the weekend so intend to act normally and make a real effort to be as mobile as possible as I need to get back to work and I need to be much more active so I can get things moving in the world again.
