10.30.17 Incision Infection

This afternoon we brought Aimee into Children’s to have her surgeon look at the lower incision. A long day for Aimee to be in her chair after her late night. Sadly, the surgeon decided that Aimee needs to go back into surgery. There is an infection and he needs to determine if it is just in the upper tissue or if is down at the implant. He put her on big antibiotics until he can get her in on Wednesday. Once the incision is cleaned out, he will reclose the wound with staples, and decide what course of antibiotics she needs afterwards. If it is at the implant she will have to be on them for 3 months! Hopefully it is not that deep. 

We’re waiting for a scheduling call at this point, but she will go back under at some point on Wednesday.
