protecting incision??

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I'll be getting a abdominal myo in the next few months, am trying to

prepare for it [practically and emotionally].

I have two WONDERFUL cats who LUV to sit on my lap, especially when I sit

cross-legged to meditate or read. During my 4-6 weeks recovery, I know I

will find their presence comforting and don't want to shoo them away.

However, I want to protect my incision [from them, and anything else that

might accidently bang into my incision].

Has anyone ever purchased or rigged something to strap on your abdomen

and cover/protect your incision? It seems do-able: maybe something firm

but maybe soft; not too high; perhaps porous [like a spaghetti strainer];

rests on the hip bones; anchored in place by straps around the waist and

around the crotch? I could wear it over or under sweat pants. Could wear

in my sleep, to prevent said cats from jumping on my belly.

Or do you think my entire abdominal region will be too swollen or sore for

even a tiny bit of judiciously placed pressure?

Would love to hear your thoughts and experience......
