Thank you! I have got the mouth spray today, and found some old maternity trousers with roll down waistband! Are the wounds by your bra line then? Or lower? X

Consultant: Mr Jambulingam, Luton & Dunstable Hospital
Funding: NHS
Surgery Type: RNY Bypass
Surgery Date: 6th September 2011
Gender: Female
My laparascopic incisions were one right in the middle on the bra-line then the other 3 in a row about 2-3 inches below the bra-line, with the drain scar on the far left of the row. Nothing anywhere near the trouser waistband area. (I hope that makes sense!)
