Today’s wound care appointment didn’t go how I expected. In order to heal, the doc had to open my incision about 1/3 of the way and let it open with packing. I have swelling fluid that won’t release.
The swelling is what caused my high blood pressure really throughout pregnancy and most of it has left my body but not in this area.
Also, since I wouldn’t stop bleeding they had to cauterize again. This time I wasn’t numb from the armpits down, but just locally. I felt a jolt and had to ask for more numbing meds.
Waiting now on insurance to approve a new wound vac to be applied on Thursday hopefully.
Thankful for family on hand to help care for Asher and me through this, and for strong pain meds.
Healing come quickly.
