You poor thing. I found out also that after my surgery that
I am having allergic reaction to sutures. Incision keeps
opening. Complained to doctor(also cut my bladder while in
surgery so now have alot of pain and some kind of mass on
my bladder- probably the sutures there having a reaction
thought it was kidney stone but wasn't, been at the hospital
for tests the last four days, got scoped today and found the
problem- only 9 months after having surgery. I am so tired
of doctors who don't take you seriously, glad ER doctor was
caring and trouble shooting and sent me to urologist or I
never would have had a clue that my bladder needs attention.
take care and hope all goes well with you. This is so nice
to know that other people have the same problem and that I
am not "nutts" Carrie
