Hicksy Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 I developed an infection after surgery that required me to go on antibiotics. It wasn’t meningitis but was a fairly resistant infection. I also had a stitch pop out that didn’t dissolve for about 4 months. Hopefully you will be able to see your surgeon again for his/her opinion. I made the mistake of originally going to both the emergency department and a clinic who both didn’t take me seriously. It wasn’t until I returned to my surgeon that the infection was properly identified and I was started on the proper antibiotics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
