DEEP incision with lap RNY??

yours would be so long. Keep an eye on it dont let it get infected. I have to
believe that the doctor and nurse are telling you the truth. Nothing can be done
about it now. Heal up and deal with it later. I know your dissapointed.
Sorry

AUTUMN-if your info here is correct, you just had surgery 4/2. Your body has been thru MAJOR trauma, and the incision sites should still have some pretty major swelling. they may STILL have some swelling/bruising to do, before they heal up. Watch for uber redness/any "heat", and stinky drainage...
As for the particular site you described-yes, that IS the site the surgeon normally does "most" of the work. If you think about the "tools" used to actually DO the surgery, you can imagine how traumatic that could be to the body...
You are ABSOLUTELY right to be concerned, though-it shows you are being your OWN BEST ADVOCATE, and I think that is CRUTIAL, for each of us...
Uhem..now..as for your stomach going to be "deformed"...after you lose wt...and will probably have loose skin...you won't even be able to SEE the spot you are so concerned about now!
I've been a nurse over 30 yrs. I'd be more than happy to look at your wound, if you wanna text me a pic. Message me here and I'll send you my number..
Hang in there!!
