4th week update

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

It's been 4 weeks since my surgery. My period ended but I just

realized my surgery site is still bleeding. It's not that much blood

but it seems to be coming from a small site that hurts horribly and

when it doesn't hurt it stings or itches. It's right at the bottom of

the vaginal opening. I had refused to see me with the mirror since it

was just making me more nervous, but Iwent ahead and saw myself.

It's kind of hard because before I had the surgery I would just squat

and the whole area would open. Now, after two surgeries, my legs

can't stand the position and it hurts, so I have to manage to hold a

flashlight, the mirror and open my vulva at the same time (I need 4

hands). Anyway, on one side it seems to be healing really well and

the transition from the vagina to the vulva looks very smooth. On the

other side I have a bulge that is quite disgusting. aND right in the

middle, the place where it hurts, there's like a little point that

doesn't heal, it sometimes has a little scab or looks wet, like

oozing. That's the place that hurts. My guess is that the bulge kind

of keeps it covered and it never get dry. I called the doctor and

told him I was still bleeding and it has been 4 weeks, and he said " I

wouldn't worry about it, see you in two weeks " . Iknow there is

something wrong and that he's going to have to do some kind of

repair. I just would like it to be the soonest possible. I'm kind of

desperate about this. I can't do anything because it stings all the

time. Walking is horrendous. People now are assuming that after 4

weeks I'm perfectly well and treating me like that. My advisor keeps

asking for new things all the time and I don't see the end of it. I'm

in a lot of stress. I'll inform in one week, hopefully with better

news.
