7 months post op still having issues

By Angela Saint Louis on 17 Dec 2011

I had a tummy tuck, muscle repair and 3 hernias repaired in may of this year. At times I look pregnant, the more I use my stomach muscles the faster I feel like it swells. I also have a hard time bending over. Feels like there is something in the way. They thought I might have a seroma at about 6 or 7 weeks and tried to drain but got nothing. Did an ultrasound but saw nothing. My surgeon agrees that I'm still pretty firm and shes not sure why. What do you think this could be? I don't know if I should push for a MRI or just wait it out.
