Heck yeah, babe! Lots of incisions have opened and everyone survived them and healed. Look in the library under 'seroma', Most of the experiences noted in the library are post-op WLS, as mine was, but I can't see that the surgical incision from your TT would be much different. The added protein you are taking will speed the healing as well. Much love and luck as you proceed thru this part of your awesome journey!
