“Freaking out While Healing... but Like How I Look So Far”

so i had my flanks done on wed. and that was not bad at all....I then had my upper and lower abs done yesterday and that was really painful!....then today when i tried to take off my compression garment i got a huge rush of heat like I was gonna pass out.....has that happened to anyone else? it freaked me out and now im scared to take it off to shower. so far even with the swelling I look great....all the fat pockets that stared me in the face after all the working out and eating right is finally gone....as long as recovery goes well I will say it was worth every penny....

so I am 11 days out on my flanks and 9 on my belly....the pain seems to be less and less every day...but what is upp with the hard lumps? I have read that they are normal after surgery but do they go away completely????anyone know??? I sure hope so....my abs look wavy bc of the hardness...i like the contouring, but I wanna be soft and normal not hard and lumpy.....
