petnanny Posted May 14, 2008 Report Posted May 14, 2008 Okay, I was banded on May 1st. All the glue is off my scars and one feels funny. All of them feel alittle "hard" beneath the skin but one feels like there is a little metal piece behind it. It is not the big port one. I swear I can see a piece of something about the size of the head of a pin. Am I crazy? Anyone else have funky things in there?? Teri
calicat Posted May 14, 2008 Report Posted May 14, 2008 NO! Did you have it at OCC? Did you call and ask them yet about it?
fat2nrml Posted May 15, 2008 Report Posted May 15, 2008 No weird stuff in mine! I can feel my port in my large scar but that's it. My scars look like small red scratches. If you got your surgery at the OCC, I'd give them a call.
4mygirls Posted May 15, 2008 Report Posted May 15, 2008 I was banded at the OCC on April 10th and my scars healed really nicely up until about 3 weeks ago. Then 2 of the 5 (the smaller incisions) started getting hard and are raised up a little bit. They are hard when you push on them. About a week ago one of them got really sore....I don't know what happened. I am still putting cream on it though. My husband says that he can't really even tell that they are there any more. My poor stomach, the scars just blend in with my stretch marks that I got with my first born.
petnanny Posted May 15, 2008 Author Report Posted May 15, 2008 Yes, I was banded at OCC. I havent called because I just noticed it last night and I am a bit afraid that they will tell me to come in and I cant get a plane ticket right now...... Teri
Diva Posted May 15, 2008 Report Posted May 15, 2008 Good topic. I'm 15 days banded and at first it seems that my incisions were healing really quickly. But for the last 2 days I've noticed that the highest one in the middle, seems like a little hard pimple. No biggie but certainly not flat. As the days go by the incisions do seem a little bit more raised. The only problem I've had is if I turn / twist too much when backing up while driving for example. That's a real ouwie! Today my port incision began to hurt after days of feeling perfectly fine. Hmmmm. Not really a big concern yet but since you'all brought it up, I thought I'd add my two cents. Best wishes
4mygirls Posted May 15, 2008 Report Posted May 15, 2008 Hey Diva The very highest incision and the one on the far left side are the ones that are raised and itchy sometimes. Glad to know that I am not alone! > Brook
