Stitches.................
Well, the upper stitches came out today but the lower ones have to stay in another two weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My body does not heal well after surgery or cuts so I guess I'm not suprised. Bummer though - I was hoping to be on the mend sooner.
And, I gotta tell ya - taking out the stitches HURT!!!
Love to all,
Mars

"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." -- Buddha

Hi Mars,
Hmmmm. That's a long time to have to leave the other stitches in, but the infection probably had something to do with that. I hope it's gone, now. The body probably doesn't heal well when it's fighting an infection.
Sorry about the pain - that's a pretty sensitive area to be removing stitches from, but I don't think I'd want a shot there, to kill the pain, either. Sometimes it's hard to win.
Love,
Tex

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
Maggie,
Sure hope the healing progresses as quickly as possible and you'll soon be rid of all stitches, soreness....... anything unpleasant.
Also, hoping the operation was a success......... any indication yet??
