Update. 5.5 week PO Misery
Nothing is helping. On top of that I have this stabbing, pinching, pain when I bend over and back up or twist. It's on my left sides bear belly button or maybe in middle bear belly button. It's sore as hell too. Doc said it was normal. I bought some spanx leotard that covers everything except boob. I bought a small and that compression is only thing that helps that pain.
I am going to have a lymphatic massage tomorrow. PS said it will make me pee all kinds of stuff so I will let you know how it goes.
I know I was obsessed with this site prior to surgery and read about how long recovery was but I still wasn't mentally prepared. Guess I thought ...hell I don't know I thought. I do not regret it. Not at all. I'm sure this will all pass. But this is terrible.
On a positive note: my scars look amazing and I haven't used anything other than cocoa butter.
Hang in there, beauties, we will get there.
Happy healing.

23 dayS PO
Was getting groceries out of the cart when I felt a sharp is in in mid upper ab omg it hurt but not hurt hurt for about an hour. I wasn't lifting anything heavy so not sure if my binder poked me wrong or if I strained something but it freaked me out. Will update with pictures as soon as I have time. I'm liking what I see but of course I concentrate on what I don't like. Which really isn't my surgery areas it's like now I want many other things done. But I'm done. This was a one time deal.
Provider Review
I had my first consult 5 months ago. Dr Bharti and his nurse, Erin, were so nice and professional. They took time and listened to my questions, they answered all my questions, I feel, very honestly even doe to "is this painful?" They also took time to really explain everything. They didn't make me feel pressured. Plus the wait time was best I've seen. Dr Bharti even called me after my appointment and thanked me. He told me to take time to think about it and didn't make me feel pressured or rushed. I later emailed Erin asking for two additional quotes and received all three in the mail within a week. I emailed her a few more times with questions after that. I told her due to work I'd have to schedule for November or December; and they didn't hear from me until October. I requested two dates and she said they had opening in the second date and it all went into motion. I've emailed her a couple more times. She always emails back promptly. Can't wait for Dr. Bharti. to work his magic. I've seen his work and it's amazing.
