Abdominal wall plication

[Etb]

Hi!
I am 8wks post op from hysterectomy, abdominal wall plication, & umbilical repair.  Two wks after initial surg I dev a hematoma.  PS re-opened me up & cauterized insides.  I am 5'8" 113 lbs. I had no fat & no extra skin.  I am extremely active (running & lifting approx 6 days/wk), healthy eater, & mother of three small children.  I have been wearing my binder most of the time.  My recovery has gone well except in the last 2wks.  My stomach is very distended & warm to the touch.  I can eat nothing & still have the same protruding hard spongey belly...  I can longer contract my abs & my binder barely fits around my stomach.  I had a follow up visit w/my PS today & he recommended that I start focusing on building my ab muscles...  I use to be a fitness trainer & I know that building your abdominal muscles only adds size to your waist.  I am desperate for any info regarding my situation.  I personally feel that my PS owes me a refund.
Sincerely,

Etb
