43yrs Old and on my Way to a New Body - Dominican Republic, DO

I am 9 days post op and feel great. I had no complications. The only pain is the lipo in the back. Boy that was hell. Other than that the tummy tuck was no pain. My drain is still in. It kept clogging because I was not keeping it down low. My follow up was great. Dr I sister that I puts two towels under my faja. One in the lower center of my back and the other in the upper center of my stomach for more compression. I bought lipo foam so that is what I am using. The towels were uncomfortable. I am pleased with my shape. I lost my pictures I will take more tomorrow after my massage. I retain a lot of fluid so I have had a massage scheduled for every day here and three in Florida next week. I must say the people make the recovery house feel like home. Awesome ladies. Although they don't speak English I had a great time with them. Even my daughter is loving it here in the dr.

Dr Hernandez is just what you heard, very straight forward and excellent plastic surgeon. I enjoyed my time with him. I look very natural which is what I wanted.

If you have any question feel free to ask. Thank you all for your prAyers and thoughts.

Hi guys. I am here in the dr. Just finish with blood work, X-ray and now waiting for the EKG. Laura is so friendly. I must say I am impressed; very clean, efficient and comfortable. My driver was at the airport; didn't have to wait. He is so friendly. I can't remember his name right now. The ride from the airport was about 30 minutes if that. Right now I am so hungry and my daughter is very sick, flu. She is so miserable. Surgery is tomorrow. Boy! these women look fabulous. I am so excited.

6 days to go and I still don't have everything. I guess I will pick up the residual things in Fort Lauderdale on Saturday. Boy I am so ready for this change. I am hoping that I am able to tell dr what I want. To my realself family, six days and counting. Please pray for me. Thank you all for the support. I will update when ever I could.
