Flag7 mths ago i had to have an emergency hysterectomy, i was told by the nurses he would give me a free tummy tuck if i asked and of course i did, but i thought it was something he really knew how to do. It looks like a ditch and i've had many problems with it, i went back to him last mth and he tried to convience me it was still healing, then before i left he said he didn't know why it did that. it popped open in the middle and i had to have it sewn up again. there was no drainage tube and a hole came in the middle, so much came out you could actually look down into my tummy. it is still very tender, i would have rather left it the way it looked before, i knew threre would be a scar but nothin like this, from how much he said he cut off i couldn't believe it.
