I had a c/s almost 8 weeks ago. First off I had some trouble b/c my baby was taken to another hospital so I had to leave early and spend 4 days in a waiting room until he was discharged (and doing great now by the way!!). Sooooo, I overdid it and ended up with a hematoma on the left side of my incision. That has since healed. I am having some more complications though. I delivered on Dec 3rd and on Dec 24th was getting into the back of my SUV and felt something 'pull' and then immediate pain on the right side deep into my abdomin. Ever since then I have had periodic severe pain in that area. The incision has healed, though still numb. I went for my last post op appt and my doc said it may be a cyst but to come back if still hurts in a month. Well, it is almost a month now and more symptoms have come and more pain. After my C/S I had the 'normal' discharge with a particular odor to it, the discharge and odor went away about 2 weeks ago but has since returned with a watery, very dark color and odor again. Also, I have the WORST EVER case of hemmeroids (sp?) inside and out that are bleeding and not getting better along with gas and occasional constipation and sometimes diarehea (I have IBS so this isn't usually normal for me). My stomach and skin are still VERY tender to the touch and still having pain in my abdomin with mostly at night when I am laying down. I also am having sharp pains shooting down through my vagina at times as well as dizziness like vertigo and sometimes extreme for a few minutes.
I do plan on calling my doctor but do not have insurance and still have MANY hospital bills from the delivery, etc. so I am scared of being put through a bunch of unecessary tests. He also wasn't too sure what it could be last time I was there so just wondering if you have any advice for me?????
Thank you!!
