25th TT Day:
Hello All: I still healing. There is still some swelling and a tiny bit of oozing from one drain area. I believe it happens because of my constant movement at work (up & down, up & down for 9 hours). Yes, I'm one of those folks who doesn't know how to work a 7.5 day and call it quits. I'm exhausted right now, but I wanted to post some pictures that I just took by myself. So they are not the best, but will give you an idea of how I'm progressing. I still wear my veronica garment during the day and my binder at night. I haven't began a work out yet, because by the time I leave work, I'm exhausted. My appetite has decreased tremendously. Chat with you all again soon and Happy Mother's Day!!!!

Week 4
Hello All: I saw my PS on 4-30-12. He removed the bandage and it was painless. The balloon spot I was worried about is completely gone. I'm so happy!! It still feels like I've done 500 situps and I love it. My PS said I can start walking now and start exercising this week. So excited. Interesting thing, my PS did not advise me to use any scar creams. I went online and found that some doctors don't think they are necessary. I love the way I look in my clothes. I'm still swollen a bit, but I'm not concerned because I know it will take time. Once again, I took my camera to my PS, so I'm downloading a few photos. Until next time, happy healing to you all.

14 Days PO
Well today was my first day back to work since my tt. Wasn't so bad. Although I sit at a desk, I'm up and down between 3 floors continously dealing with staff. I worked 12 hours and was happy to get home, shower, and sit in my recliner. I've been sleeping in the bed two nights now. The swelling is sloowly going down, with the exception of what looks like a small water balloon on my upper left belly area. My doctor said not to worry, since it doesn't hurt or my skin has not changed colors. I sent him a photograph of the area on Sunday. The doctor also said that the fluids would eventually go away, if not he can drain the fluids out (hopefully it goes away) during an office visit. Even with the swelling, my skirts have more room around the belly area, looks nice. Haven't put on any pants, other than running pants, yet. Until next time, happy healing to everyone.
