I am praying for best results. I kissed a lot of frogs to find this Prince. Dr Armijo did a very thorough examination and explained in detail what to expect with surgery and recovery. Professional photographs were taken of every angle. The Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute facility is state of the art and the Doctor has a highly credible background in his field. The staff thus far has been very helpful and accommodating. I will post results along with my journey here photos and video and on You Tube.

I'm too days from surgery day. I don't think my surgeon uses a pain pump so it may be Norco alone for pain. I don't do well with codeine:-(
If you have experience with Norco and its effectiveness. please let me know. Thank you.

Surgery went without any complications., arrival to departure post op was excellent experience. Pain medication not very effective for me. I have a low threshold for pain. I am sleeping in a recliner which is better than the bed, but wow is my back taking a hard hit!
Of course. There is some swelling and I have not taken the bandage off to see incisions. I think that happens on Thursday at my first post-op visit. Taking stool softener and prune juice (no movement) to encourage activity.lots of gas though!
Using Arnica gel and Bromelain.
If you are in the DFW area check out Dallas Day Surgery Center and Dr Armijo. I don't get paid for the referral but tell them Lady of Faith sent you.
I hope to get my before picture from their office so I can add the after picture.
Blessings and peace

I am having my surgery with Dr. Armijo on this Thursday the 30th. I have not seen any before and after pics from him anywhere. I'd be really interested in seeing yours. I hope you are doing well and congrats!

Hello Jerseychik
I am originally from Philly.
My experience this far has been positive with the Dr and his staff. Make sure you get clear instructions about whether you should remove the bandaged incisions or wait until your first visit. I hope to get my 1st visit today....I need one.
The first 4 days were tough!!! Sleeping between my Recliner and bed....! I'm being perfectly honest without the fluffy puffy testimonial. I know the end
results will be the payoff. So please be
patient. I will try to post pics today. You are correct the only post was a breast augmentation. Don't know how much fat was removed or inches cut, I will ask at my 1st visit. You can ask them to send that info home with your paperwork, because if they tell you, you will not remember the next day. LOL. Congratulations on your surgery and God bless you!

Hi Jersey Chik

Hello Lady of Faith. I spent nearly every summer in Philly growing up. Learned to beat everyone back home at double Dutch because of it. :-). I'm glad you are doing well. We were blessed to have found Dr Armijo! I can't speak highly enough of him and his staff. I can't wait to get these drains out! I try walking around as much as I can but the swelling bothers me quite a bit. I am only at day 5 and I know it's normal but it doesn't take away the fact that its bothersome. I'll keep checking in you and I will also upload some more pics soon. Stay blessed.

Lots of severe back pain! I know it's going to get better. Post op visit tomorrow.
