I had a stage 4 on right hip and at firts it was going to be debrieding and closing w/a flap. two weeks in bed became 6 then 8. You get awful week in bed. Uhm, are you at least on a low air loss mattress? And dont forget probiotics.

I have a wound vac now. So tired of laying down. My question to you'll has anyone had surgery to close wound up ? th woundcare doc says there is nothing else vac can do. he said my down time would only be in hospital and that i wouldn't be in there more tham two wks. any opinions on this? also am i wrong for not wanting a surgeon who hasn't been in practice long? I was referred to have surgery with a doc who been in practice 4 yrs.
