Yily Doll (Tummy Tuck/Aggressive Lipo - Dominican Republic, DO

It started a disaster with the hotel accommodations that were a hot mess.....Thank God I got in touch with Healing Haven she had Cecil her driver call and he came to get us, took us to eat, and then took us to the recovery house. OMG soooooo comfortable, clean, smelled great, and sooooooo accommodating. The
nurse Lucy is jazzy in her lil heels but know her stuff. Ms. Betty can cook het butt off. You feel like you are at home with your family recovering. I'm not telling anyone to
go to Healing Haven cuz you have to pick what's good for you. What I will say is that a recovery house is the best way. I messed up and stayed at the Aquarium (horrible place, customer service disastrous, food not good, lizards crawling on walls etc.....) Spending more had I just gone to Healing Haven where you have the nurse, massage therapist, housekeeper, cook, and driver. You will need all of those no matter what you think or say. After sx you will need help.especially if you have lipo (the devils child)....overall it was great. Having my girl njbeauty come in a take care of us, and the support of realself was great.....a tin more to say and pics but a tad tired so update soon......wanted to post since a lot have asked....

Well it's healing pretty good, as soon as this devils 2nd child drain (1st child Compression Garment aka.choking garment ) comes out I will start scar therapy.....

Tuesday(worse ever), and late tues and wed morning i started running fevers that would get as high as 102.4, and headaches. I thought a cold or I wasn't drinking enough water to flush toxins after massage. I go to my primary they got nervous, and
gave me an antibiotic shot and a 14 day supply. I went home fever was dropping and headache was gone.. They said don't hesitate to go to ER if you aren't better in 48hours. Well that was Friday come Saturday my temp was in seizureville so i went to ER wet, pale, and clammy. After being admitted they said everything sx related looked great. There was however a cyst on my lower left side of my back that was radiating heat, and extremely red. Many shots of morphine, antibiotics through IV, and pills i was dx with cellulitis. So I'm home taking meds fever still goes high and low but i can tell it is,getting better. My body has,soooooo many antibiotics I can't wait to detox. The antiboticd my primary gave me weren't strong enough. they were so concerned they called two surgeons and a Specialist that advised that i needed stronger antibiotics for this particular infection. I'm taking strong as hell bacterium two twice a day. My daughter told me I stink cuz I smell like a medicine bottle. The upside is they took out my drain hallelujah praise baby Jesus and I took a shower ...OMG better then sex.....THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MY PLASTIC SURGEON this has been a PSA and I approve this message. Happy healing and know that the best is yet to come.....

I am feeling a whole lot better who knew time would be the tell all ....definitely not out of the woods but closer to out then in ...

Forgot to add this one

Out with sister and friends and we had a good time and I made it through the night.....feeling pretty good for now. I've learned to live in the day of...... :)

I have some good days some bad,days.....the worse are this damn lipo pain this burning feeling is the worse....it feels,like someone has a,match to my back at times. I love all the great compliments though..

The bad days do get fewer and fewer but please don't get it twisted they do come.....

Ok so I am convinced that we who go through this have got to be complete soldiers and tough as nails...I am loving the results and it is getting better and better. Clearly not 100 percent I still swell, I still have a few hard spots, I still get sharp pains sometimes, I still have a back that burns from time to time, sneezing is still not cool, and every now and then I have a hunch back if i'm do too much.
So I still take my arnica, turmeric and bromelain, multivitamins, skinny fiber, an occasional Aleve if i'm going to be trying on garments at store, an benedryl if the itching gets too intense.
Overall at week seven i'm looking foward to getting to eight, nine and etc...

Sooooooo it is truly getting better didn't think the day would come that I feel like I'm almost home free....lol
It's truly a process everyday. You go on thinking you have arrived then darn if you don't get hit by a ton of bricks.
I have been diligent with my turmeric and bromelain, vitamins, my skinny fiber, good eating habits, and the memory of what it took to get here. I think that alone is a deterrent to not get back to where we started.
For some reason i still itch like crazy in know it's the healing process and my low back still feels like a box of rocks but all and all I feel pretty good.
I have gone through several garment situations. I've had to get them altered i go to pick up two weeks later and damn if it doesn't need it again. I am also using the lipo board always at night (every now and then day also),and still haven't gone garment free unless bathing just don't feel that comfortable yet.
I hope all are healing well, and those who are up and coming great success. .

Trying again...

Soooooo ladies I've been looking forward to my birthday and the holiday season to be on the flattened side of the world. So I am doing tons better. I am officially out of recliner.  I held on to it for security purposes.....lol
I laid on on my stomach,  slept flat on my back without any major issues.  I do still have swelling, have some numbness in belly, and some low back patches of hardness but better as each day passes. Still on the journey and trying to get over a frickin cold. Hope all healing well and the ones coming up are excited. xoxoxo

Trying again

Whoa i'm sooooo much better never thought i'd be here...... :)
