The doctor ordered a belly binder for me. I wore it until last week because it was causing more pain. I felt good until these last few days. I think the stitches are dissolving inside and leaving things unsupported. So I had to put the belly binder back on today. Talk about feeling like I am going backwards.. Like I just came home from the hospital.. I know this is temporary and will go away soon. :)
What type of surgery did you have that you are worrying over every little pain?
