I'm having trouble attaching pics to my post so: you have to click on the user name under my avitar picture to see them.

Last Monday my PS debrided an area of dead skin at intersection of vertical and horizontal TT incisions leaving a 1 inch by 1 inch by 1/2 in deep hole.  I've been doing irrigation 2X a day with "wet to dry" dressings.

I'm sure the PS will do more work on it Monday.  Do you think he will take small black dead area around belly button??

Let me know what you think.

I'm getting 100 oz fluid, 130 gm protein daily, all Vits and supplements, walking, getting 10 hrs sleep per nighy.

Thanks for your help.

 Post those pictures on the site makemeheal.com under the abdominoplasty message board.  There should be a lot of people who can give you help.  There are also surgeons on that forum that will respond to your emails.  I can imagine how worried you are and that you want answers as soon as possible.

good luck. We had to do wound care on my hubby for months for something NOT WLS and it's tough.
