    It was all off had to go to chemist and get them to look and get them to put the exact same dressing on. Gonna ring my local doctor on Tuesday and book in with them to check it over x

    No mine neither but this dressing was a lot bigger than my first one so comes further down so when I’m stretching and bending it’s just riding up back to work now so I’m more active. I’m paying £30+ taxis to keep going back to mya for my check ups each time and was only there on Thursday can’t afford to keeping going everytime a dressing comes loose lol so hopefully my local doctor can just check it over x
