    Thanks guys,

    Turns out I had an infection. I've been at hospital on an IV of antibitotics a couple of times, back home picking up a few things.

    My doc didn't know ****. Lesson, go straight to the hospital.

      Good for you! Good lesson to share also, when in doubt, call someone or go to the hosptial. You know your own body better than anyone!

        Right on with following your own instincts! It sounded strange to me, but I only have experience with my husband's I/O incision.... which healed without a hitch. So I was just following the thread and hoping you were okay!

        Good to know nothing is going to fall off!
