Have you not got any fresh dressings you can put on honey to cover the scars,xxx
5 days PO. I have got a plaster? Should I stick that over the scar? I can’t believe it’s called a EMERGENCY line and no bloody answer x
dont use a plaster babe u need a sterile pad and sterile tape. pop the sterile pad over it and use the tape to stick it down and wait till u see nurse. plasters are too sticky and get grubby easily xxx pop to boots and get the tape and pads xxx
Dont use plasters honey you need the proper dressings,xxx
I’ve just found some tape. Surgical tape and plaster tape. I’ve used the old plaster held it where it was ment to be be and taped the sides of it on my skin? X
When do you see the nurse honey,xxxx
Id call nhs 24 and ask a nurse there?if its jst for advise im sure they wudnt mind xx

. They look a right mess. All hanging off. Now with my D I Y medical tape thingy they look 10xs worse. Just don’t want them to be open to any germs or anything xx
They should supply spare dressings in case this happens,you have them covered thats the main thing honey,id ring first thing in the morning,xxxx
Yeh I’m going to Tina. Thank you. We shouldn’t pay so much and they don’t cover for this. It won’t last till Friday. Ah well. Just glad I had the advice from you girls. U shud be getting paid not this “emergency nurse” what a joke!! Xx
they shud be ok as long as they dry and covered babe so try and not stress xxx
I had a probably with my scar on thursday and i went to my local nurse and she redressed it. As i couldnt get to the clinic, so the nurse helen at mya advised me, as they were worried about me carrying a buggy up down stairs on the tube. So that may be a suggestion, go to your local hospital or emergency doctors to get redressed. xxx
I would go your local walk inn centre they will redress it x
Oh really?? See ive stuck this tape over the dirty plaster and it just doesnt feel right. Its all tight now and horrible. I may go to tje walk in centre tomorrow after calling MYA and see what they suggest. I cant afford to go all the way to London just to have a plaster changed. They should really be equipt for somwthing like this. Its silly really. That emergency line hasnt answered all day! Xx
Can’t believe they haven’t answered xx
go to a 24/7 chemist, usually inside asda or tesco and sometimes a boots has a 24/7 chemist and explain whats happened they can sell ya summit they sold me steri strips
This is really concerning, I think a Mya Moderator should be looking into this!! hope it all gets sorted soon hun xx
