A little pain, a little depression! To be expected?!
I'm an out going, have fun, glass half full and a very energetic personable woman! So 10 days post- surgery I didn't think that the emotions that I've been feeling were normal to me. I've been very weepy, needy and the feeling that I need help from friends and family is hard for me, normally I am the helper, provider and care giver. The level of pain is still a 6/7 out of 10 which is within the normal ranges. The assistants at Dr. Pousti's office Missy and Vanessa are da bomb!! :) they removed a couple of my drains my last visit and my visit was pleasant as possible! U gotta love em! ;)
As for the feeling of anxiety I think that's because I've been confounded to the rooms of my house, DR. Pousti, called me and was totally able to relate from other patient's experiences. He suggested I get out and get some fresh air and some sun, that made a world of difference! I was smiling again, no more tears and the overwhelming feelings of being depressed or so I thought have hidden their ugly heads, hopefully for good!
Which doctor calls you to see how your emotional well- being is as well as your physical, on a weekend no less??!!
Dr. Pousti does and his staff too! GOD BLESS him! :))

Doing ok!
Four days post surgery, everything went well on the day of surgery, I was in the operating room longer than anticipated, but probably because the master was at work creating one of his best pieces!? Lol
After staying another night in the hotel close to his office and the surgery center my husband and I had opted to hire an after care nurse, Hailey. Whom may I tell you knows her stuff and is well prepared in case of an issues! She took great care of me that evening & night and explained and showed how I should be taken care of post surgery by my husband And family..she had a medicine chart to keep track of what I should be given an when and also she provided the snacks and small edible items that sit well I'm your stomach after surgery. I have 5 drains so she emptied those periodically and recorded the out- put. Told us what we should be looking for in terms of anything that's not normal. I highly recommend her, more nights if you feel the need!
Dr. Pousti, I can't say enough good things about this doctor, without sounding, corny or like a sales pitch, "Above and beyond", doctor patient care! He was totally in sync with my emotional well- being as my physical, knew how I was feeling and talked me through the emotions and pointed out that the anxiety, nervousness, apprehension and excited ness that I was feeling was all completely normal. To embrace theses emotions and not to hide them! He took longer in surgery than we had planned and that was because he takes pride and satisfaction in EVERY single procedure he performs, be it the last finishing sutures or the the last injection. He paid me a house (hotel) visit that evening to make sure I felt okay and to see if I had any questions or concerns! Who does that?!? Dr. Pousti does, I'm sure it's for patients that had such a big
procedure done like me. Since the day of surgery I have heard from him or a staff member, to follow- up and answer any questions or concerns everyday!! They've been so helpful and experienced I haven't had the need to ask them very much, they have given me all the info my husband and I would need! Thank goodness for DR. Pousti and a walker! Lol :)

Sooooooo........ Two days till "D-Day". I'm...
Sooooooo........ Two days till "D-Day". I'm excited but nervous as hell! Felt like I ran around like a headless chicken running errands and last minute meal prep for my husband and two kids, which I know will be fine while I'm in recovery, but I'm a wife and a mom so I kinda know better, so I do my thing- prepare! Lol
I'm having an extended tummy tuck and an extended breast lift- "Mommy Makeover"! With all the bells and whistles. I haven't come to this decision lightly, two years of planning and saving and preparing mentally for the changes in my life that these procedures would have. The affect on my mind, body and soul and my precious loving little family! I have two teenagers, they've seen me successfully lose 80 pounds in about 2.8 years. And the saggy excess skin left behind from I would say pregnancies and years of neglect on my behalf. Needless to say this is my reward, all mine!!!!
I believe in God and karma and all good things come to those who wait, oh lord I have been patient and waited, it's my turn finally! To do something for me, myself and I.
And I can tell you that I have researched and investigated (so to speak), and came to the realization that a plastic surgeon not only should know how to perform the procedure you are interested in but also be knowledgable, experienced and be a people person, not someone who THINKS they know what they're doing and have their head up their ass, because they think they know their [RS bleep]!!! That's not how it works, trust me, I went to a few doctors like that, I won't name names, but truly A**holes!
So after careful consideration, research and good ole' honest vibes! I am going to have my surgery with the wonderful doctor who is a great fit for me and my family and without so many words knew what I wanted and anticipated my questions, is honest, caring and a family man! (lucky wife, lol). The one and only DR. POUSTI.
