Question on revision of tummy tuck scar

February 11, 2003

I'm going in today for what my doctor calls a revision of my tummy tuck

scar. Have dog ears on each one of my hips that he is taking care of

today. Was told that it's no big deal, done in the office with a local

and will come home with a few stitches.

Has anyone had this done and if so, how uncomfortable will it or should

it be for the next few days. Have my son's birthday tomorrow, therefore

lots of running around. Have to bake brownies for his class tonight,

bring them to school tomorrow, take Leah to the ENT, then back to school

and then I have school where I have a long walk across campus to get to

all my classes and the car, then have a Brownie meeting from 4-5:30 and

then we're taking out to dinner and then have cake at home. Hoping

that the stitches won't be too much of a nuisance tomorrow.

Don't really know why I'm asking this question now. There is nothing I

can do about any of this at this point. Too late to reschedule my

appointment and can't do much about tomorrow's schedule. I may possibly

be able to get out of the Brownie meeting, but that's a longshot. Any

pearls would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Regina
