Guest guest Posted March 12, 2000 Report Share Posted March 12, 2000 Hi Candace - wow your doctor really did come forth with info for you! I'm pressing for another consult with the one it looks like I'll be having to use and if I can't get at least this much from him I'll have to make other plans too, I guess. As for staples - I can only speak from my own experience, but I had no problem with them in 1990 and my bikini scar is hardly noticeable. These were removed 7 days after surgery and the healing was clean and with minimal pain. As for the " tummy tuck " , --- while I don't know any of the details here -- IF this means she'll be tightening up the skin and related layers which were *stretched* from the bulge of the fibroids growth, this seems to me to be a good thing because that is most definitely something that can NOT be done by diet and exercise alone. It is not at all uncommon for people who have lost tremendous amounts of weight to have to have just exactly that done to deal with the now saggy-baggy skin since the bulk that was there to support it before are not longer there. As with everything - it must be your decision though! All the very best to you - and do keep us posted about how it's going for you?!
