Tummy Tuck in April 2011 (End of April) - Long Beach, CA

I made it ladies, yes the first 2 days are extreme pain, pretty much sat on my ass, cant lie or side. didnt have a reclining chair , so had bunch of pillows on my back. the most painful is muscle repair, every move you make it you use your core, so it was hard not to use it.this is my 4days post op, im walking straight, although i develop a sore throat that is killing me, got some cough medicine,just need that mucous to come out, its not an infection, its from surgery when stuck a tube in your throat. Overall that bad at all. Just first few days, you need help to get you up, especialy bathroom, and its feels good to walk around. swollen big time, especially the lipo area, ice it up every 20 mints helps a lot. i go to my follow up tomw, tubes should be remove, I still havent seen my belly, im afraid to look. definetly tomorrow i bring a camera in doctor office. Oh yah, tak your stool softner the night before surgery. thanks ladies

Well, this is it, first thing tomorrow i' am going in. Im so excited, im so exhausted, im afraid im not wake up on time. Keep me in your prayers ladies... good night..
