9 weeks post op

I have been going to see the nurse about twice a week for the past 2-3 weeks. In the end I was fed up to make the trip and  canceled the last one. The sore wasn't weeping much and I thought if I go -- she will just rip it off again to have a look and will carry on the viscous circle. So I didn't go (Friday. Today is Sunday, 5th Oct. I finally decided to shower. I bought some so-called waterproof plasters, which were useless in the end. I did however spent more than 20min in the shower. I soaked a long time to get rid of the dead skin.. Scrubbed the entire body, obviously avoiding the new scars. And after that I still had lots of dead skin coming off as it softened. I feel literally squeekie clean:) the plasters didn't keep dry my little cotton pad that was stuck to my sore. But it was easy to peel it off. I had to, it was all saturated with water. And this is what was underneath. 

At least is not bleeding for a change but it's obviously very deep. Something that could probably do with a stitch or two..to close it down a bit. I have a little fan onto it now to dry it off as I think once it dries and the air can get to it and it doesn't stick to any dressings to peal it off again then it will be fine. Need to get dressed in a min.. And sadly I might need to put something to avoid rubbing on clothing :( so upsetting all this carrying on! Can't even go to the gym and exercise as don't want to shower and get it wet again etc. 

it sucks! 

Rant over.
