So it has been just over three months now. I still had some swelling and hardness (scar tissue) until the last 7 days. Last week, I started feeling uncomfortable below my belly button, where much of the hardness is located. I especially hurt whenever I used the transverse plane of motion.

It last for two or three days. I woke up one morning, the swelling and hardness was basically gone!!! MY abs are as flat as they have been since my bodybuilding days. I could not be happier with the results!!! That being said, follow your doctors orders and you will be okay

Congrats on your operation, I am in a similar situation where I used to have a great body with good definition however, I ate myself in lieu of stress and anxiety. I think I must've gained close to 80 pounds over the course of one year. I've gotten back down to my normal weight and decided to get a TT.

I am currently on day 5 of recovery and I am only taking the antibiotics and Tylenol. I can bare the pain but I just don't like the dizziness and nausea that ensues with pain killers.

I am finding that my repositioned belly button is high though. My abdomen area is swollen but I am not sure if the swelling has caused the belly button to appear high or if its a miscalculation on the part of my surgeon. Have you had or heard of such issues?

So it is a little over 7 weeks, and I am loving the work. The swelling is gone in the monring and afternoon. There is still some there at night. Today was the start of my second intense week in the gym. Last week I did my normal split, ran, biked, and finally sneezed wihthout worrying!! For those of you debating, find a good surgeon and go for it!

Adonis, thank you for your pics and all your comments. My surgery is already scheduled for December. I workout four to five times a week with weights and cardio. I am happy to hear that it helps with the recovery. I don't like taking pain killers either and hoping I don't have to take too many. You look great and you probably look a lot better by now. I wish you the best and thanks.

Working out defintely helped. I started at week 3, but with basically no weight. Just the bar for chest press (usually over 200), 5lb curls (usually 50), etc. But it helped keep me sane.

As for the pain pills, I needed them the first seven nights until after the drains came out. I took them that night as well and that was it
