Large lump near DIEP stomach incision

Postby Warriormummy » Sun Sep 13, 2015 10:34 am

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else has had a lump or hernia appear post-DIEP flap recon near their lower stomach area incision? I'm hoping it's just scar tissue or a fatty deposit? I've also had a full hysterectomy as was high risk for ovarian cancer too, so lots of work around this area. It feels quite large and I noticed it seems to move. Jumped on the trampoline with my kids and it felt a ball was bouncing in my right top pubic area!

I've been trying to see w dr all weekend and they're all full or away sick themselves. Trying not to worry...

Sorry not sure if this is the right place for this question.
