Day two post

Today I worked a five hour shift. I am feeling pretty much normal just very achy. I feel like I haven't had an operation but have just been wearing a very uncomfortable garment 24/7. My incision sites are pretty much closed and itch slightly (I assume this means they're healing). I now feel fine to take my garment on and off (with some pain involved), but no lightheadedness. I was able to shower all by myself last night. I have been taking my garment on and off for toilet as I find it unbearable and impossible to wear and go. Not sure if anyone else has had these same problems. I can't see any visible bruising which is strange??? But still heaps of swelling and numbness

Day One Post

I had my procedure yesterday. I woke up super early because I thought it was at 8am but sadly was wrong and had to wait till 11am. I got to the surgery where my procedure would be underway. My doctor drew lines on me where he would sculpt. I was cautious about my hips as I thought he might give me a boys body (in naturally very curvy) and this worried me. He confirmed that he wouldn't do such a thing and then we went to the operating room. He put some numbing cream on me and put some local into my veins (I think?). It made me feel very heavy and a little spaced out but still pretty normal. Soon after he commenced the procedure. It hurt quite badly and I had to have some more drugs to breathe in during the procedure. I think it was the actual motion of the lipo that hurt most rather than the incision sites. After my procedure I layed on the bed waiting for the drugs to wear off. Later, when I got off the bed I fainted. I had to wait a little longer yet fainted again when trying to get up. I was very swollen and yet not sure. My legs were extremely numb though. When I got in the car I threw up, it was pretty gross and horrible and I was sweating profusely. On my arrival back home, I put some towels on my bed and my mum dressed me with bandages (thank god for having a mother that's a nurse). During this time the bleeding and seepage had leaked into my bed. Pretty gross! She helped me put my garment on and then I had a sleep. Since then I haven't had much seepage - I think that the bandage dressings she put on are very absorbent. Today I am quite sore and it hurts to walk around but more so to stand still. I still haven't had much seepage through the garment except for one incision site thank god but I don't know if this is a good or bad thing.

Also, I really need to go bathroom for number 2 haha. But I feel so weird about going in this garment. Has anyone else had this experience?

Getting Nervous. Please help

My procedure is tomorrow and I am EXTREMELY nervous. I've been having fights with both my parents about my procedure in regards to whether or not I need to get this done or not. They were not very understanding and continued to tell me to just "go for a run".

I think that their lack of support is definitely what is making me nervous to undergo liposuction. Has anyone been in a similar position? How did it go?

I am also nervous that it will turn out horribly or worse result in fatality. I'm sure I am overreacting, but I have never had to undergo such a procedure in my life and it is very daunting to not have the support of your parents.

Can anyone reassure me or even convince me not to do it?! I don't know what I should do!!

Please help
