Guest guest Posted January 20, 2004 Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 Hey Bobbe et al I am about six weeks out from Bat Wing surgery, and I am doing well. The scars are thin, but I am keeping the bandages on to reduce any chance of stretching or pulling them. The hardest thing to come to terms with is being unable to stretch my arms out fully at the moment. Things are just too tight to reach out. The PS says it will relax soon, and will be easier but it is a hard thing to come to terms with. By the way, no drains for the batwings...and they didnt really leak or get infected at all. Hope this helps, Kristy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
