Hello

I am 5 weeks post op from TAH. My incision is still leaking in one small spot. I am probably over doing things a bit lately trying to get back toma normal routine,  but I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

    Yes that happened to me 1 week in. I was scared and went to dr. Incision was healing from sides but was leaking from middle. Get checked for infection. I was over doing things myself. Do do that take your time to recover. I’m 2 months in and having a cut scan tomorrow bc it still hurts me. Not as much as beginning of course but still discomfort.
