For those of you who didn't make it to chat or those who left before I got there

Everything went well yesterday. He said that the spot is looking very good. We're likely to believe that it was a rouge stitch that caused the irritation but because he was not able to see it over the weekend he can't say for sure. It is scabbing over now so I think it's fine. I have an appt to see him back next week but he also said that if I'm comfortable with the healing to just wait until next month for my 6 mo post op to come in. As a precaution I am going to remain on the keflex.

Overall he is pleased with my healing considering the complications I had in the beginning. He reminded me not to worry too much about the things that do not look totally right yet. He said because the right side had such a hard time and becuase the healing process took/is taking longer that it will be longer before we see the final result. He expects by late spring/ early summer we will know what we are dealing with but until then don't worry about it. I know that I am lucky considering what went wrong. It could have been SO MUCH WORSE that what it is now.

So that is the update. Sorry for making you all wait. I'm just so tired, tired of dr's, lol
