good afternoon all

fairly new here but have a question. maybe posted in wrong area but if so let me know.

SO 2016 i had a sub total hysterectomy partially done my laproscopic but in the end they had to cut me open

ive also had 3 c sections and i was sterilised using the same incision due to severe adhesions i believe i also had some adhesions removed during hysterectomy.

in feb last year i had a abcess in my scar which opened up into a deep nasty hole.

my question is over 2 years later my scar is goving me so much trouble. im overweight so appreciate my over hand does not help however the worse pain feels internal. im scared to visit GP due to weight and being passed off again. just to add with almost all 5 surgerys ive had infections and after hysterectomy and 1st section i had holes open up so theres some risen areas of scarring there

    Hi Nicole,

    how are you doing now? please you do need to go see a doctor. you need not be afraid. most of us here can only speak to what we have gone through and our coping techniques.

    but your situation seems special. please go see a doctor
