Two Week Checkup

Oct 07, 2013

Well, I had my meeting with the surgeon today, it went very well.They were very pleased with my progress. The incision sites have been healing very. The dr was asking why I put bandaids on the wounds, thinking that they may be leaking/oozing, and was concerned. I explained that I had them bandaged because I am very bad with wound/scabs. If they itch I will scratch them, and they itched a lot. This is normal he explained, as when a wound heals it secretes histamines, when cause itching ( also found when alergic.) He congratulated me for thinking ahead and using common sense,

My BP was very good for me at 138/74. My weight was at 405.

He asked about any naseau or vomiting (none) and howI was eating (still on puree) 

They measured my leg for the Lymphadema, It had gone down a few inches since surgery. Surprisingly, the non-swollen leg went down more than the swollen one. I have started tracking these in these in the Health tracker. Where there are two sides I will be seperating them by using a decimal point Left.Right.

I scheduled my appointment for 4 weeks from today 11/4. I also confirmed my wifes appointment for next monday 10/14 so that she can figure out whats wrong with her digestive health. being very pleased with Dr Khaitan we are going to her for answers.
