Im feeling all different kind of ways... The days are really going by fast I talked to the PS office and she is really great I didnt have all the money but she is really working with me, she said I could make payments on the portion im short.... No how many PS does that? that made my day Im really excited now. I have my pre-op visit on monday a week before my TT...I'm still counting down 12 more days:-)

So today I went to see my PS and he wasn't there instead I saw his nurse she took my blood and gave me everything I needed before surgery they sized me for my binder and we discuss all the things I needed to do before the procedure!!! At first I was a lil pissed the doctor wasn't there but they said he had to do an emergency procedure but the nurse was really nice and took her time explaining every single question out of the millions I had to ask.... On my way home I stopped by cvs and picked up some healing creams and oils that was a little pricing! Lol... I'm feeling scared I haven't ate anything but two tacos today, and that anit me! Lol, I'm planning everything so I wont have to do much after my TT but I must admit I'm feeling a little bit scared with excitement added~ 6 days left and I'm counting down{•_•}

Post Op day 6 Im feeling really good today, I havent took anything for pain, Thank god Im not having any pain. I Spent Easter home all alone because yesterday I was so swollen from eating Ritz crackers I didnt want to be tempted at my grandmothers with all that Good Food, lol so today was a breeze I can feel the nerves growing back every once and a while I feel a sharp feeling but it doesnt hurt at all...I still cant believe its over and Finally I got my TT, I waited so long for this and Im a strong believer that anything you can do to make yourself feel better about yourself do it!! My PS went on vacation and wont be back till April 16 so I made a appt for that date to have my 1 drain removed Im draining only 15cc a day now and before it was 75 to 50cc a day, My PS has a nurse that can take out my drains before the 16 but Im in no rush I can wait for the Doc.
Im going to post more pis soon but the swelling really bugs me cause you cant really get the full effect on how flat the tummy really is but this too shall Pass!

Thanks again for all the support Ladies!

Post Op Day 12....Hello Ladies Im so Happy I finally got a real Shower this morning!! Im free from my Drain friday morning I saw my PS and really wasnt especting him to be there cause the nurse told me he wouldnt be back from vacation till monday. I was happy he removed my drain I felt more comfortable although the nures there are great!! Oh yeah I drove my self because I had no one to take me I did feel a lil bit of a strain so I will try not to drive to much so soon but I had no choice.....It was my first time out the house since surgery so I was really excited to get out, I went out to happy hour with my friends and watch them drink and it wasnt bad cause I wanted to be out the house it was fun to be out finally but I wished I could have had a Sip but I couldnt because of the anitibiotics...lol I think I over did it a lil getting i and out the car so Im going to take it really easy until my Las Vegas trip which is in Two weeks for my birthday......Do you All think its ok or to soon for a trip I will be a few days shy of a month post op when my Vegas trip come.
