Super excited that my day is coming soon I am also on TT board since I will be having that done. I know not a lot of people from Dr. Cardenas come back to tell their story or show their results but I am and that's a promise. I will be having a ETT, Lipo, and fat graphing. I am 5'6 145 lbs on my heaviest day.

I am really concerned that Cardenas may give me my TT results but it sounds like she may not give me the booty I want. I am going to be honest I know I am not asking for a big donk but I do want a nice round butt and a good size. My problem is after thinking about it I may not have enough fat after my first round of having TT lipo and fat graph. I know for a fact I am not going to want to gain weight to go for a round 2! I even think am I asking for to much?? Both Campos and Pantoja have my date saved for me although I have left a deposit to Cardenas!

So I got my blood work in yesterday my iron was low it is at a 10.9. Does anybody know what it needs to be for surgery?? Also my white blood count was off, so now my doctor wants to do more blood work. I am hoping for the best and everything is normal I had just got off a long period so I think that explains the low blood count. I guess my main concern is the white blood count. There is not one surgery that is worth risking my life for, if I end up not being able to have this done. Keep me in prayer as I would any of you guys!

A couple of months ago I was having back ache and bought a back cushion to support my back...well today I was thinking I really didn't want to have to bring a boppy to work. So I put the back cushion on my chair to see if it would work and it does you can totally sit on your thighs and very comfortable. Just thought I would let you guys know! Posted a pic :)

Hello ladies my time is coming I have like 23 more days to go I think!! I am super excited and nervous at the same time. Excited about my TT but nervous about the BBL. Being that I am having the TT I am not sure how the BBL is going to come out. I may be in so much pain that I don't care. I guess we will see.....

I just want to say I follow so many of you guys.....

I just want to say I follow so many of you guys...I have seen some work better than others but I just think its because of your shape and some have a better foundation than others and there are some that just didn't come out lack of the doctor maybe??. I have not had my surgery and I am not sure what my outcome will be but I do know I will look better than what I do now. I have asked for my review to be deleted only because my main focus is on my tummy and I feel the fat graphing Cardenas will do is a bonus. I am on the Tummy Tuck blog and the ladies are wonderful and supportive. No arguing no bulling, and everybody just supports each other.

Thought I would ask you guys I know most BBL patients use it because of the lipo. Most TT people don't but since I am getting both TT BBL and Lipo I thought I would ask you guys???

Wondering what some of you gals are using for discoloration and the small scars from lipo. This discoloration on my lower back looks bad and the small scars. Very frustrating thinking about getting a tat to cover it! I have been using Palmers Oil and scar balm for a while now!
Great review?

WOW there are counting days b4 your big day. I'm so excited for you. First make sure you get the best pain meds. I heard in Mexico they're giving only Tylenol. Trust me the pain will make you forget about arnica. Are you going with someone? You'll need someone loving caring person to be with you. I can't wait to see you happy. I know she's the queen of TT so your tummy will look amazing. I'm really happy for you.Happy healing
wrknonit 10 Dec 2012
Thank you so much...yes I am staying at a recovery house with nurses and I also got all my meds that my doctor here in the states prescribed me some good stuff lol!!
SweetOnYou 30 Nov 2012
And I agree about your foundation determinining how your butt will look. I was a square before lol and didn't expect to look like bria miles. Dra Cardenas knows what she's doing esp with her tt it will make your butt look so much bigger. Just remember to give it time. Good luck
wrknonit 30 Nov 2012
Thank you I am so excited and you look so good!
SweetOnYou 30 Nov 2012
I didn't use mine, gave it to my roomie. It didn't seem to do anything for me :-/
QTMOMMY 4 Nov 2012
happy healing ... how are you coming along ?
wrknonit 5 Nov 2012
Trying to build up my iron still!!
Yassie 1 Nov 2012
I believe it is below 11 but some doctors will do 10 I wouldn't chance it
wrknonit 1 Nov 2012
Mine is exactly at 11 I need to get my vitamins ASAP!!
OperationGetFine 1 Nov 2012
When I do my annuals I'm always at 11. I told Dr. Perry and he wrote me a script for the iron to start taking to build me levels up. I'm looking to have my procedure done on the 17th. So now I need to get on the ball!
wrknonit 1 Nov 2012
Oh yes this month the 17th??
wrknonit 1 Nov 2012
Next month the 17th I am the 13th....yes I need to also hurry up going to the Vitamin Shoppe after work
OperationGetFine 24 Oct 2012
Limbo. Don't feel bad. I'm constantly thinking about it too :/
OperationGetFine 23 Oct 2012
That's what I fear. I've always had borderline low iron like one point before considered anemic. I've started bs kntaking my iron pills so hopefully that helps me
wrknonit 23 Oct 2012
I have like 2 months to bring it up so its a good. Thing she had me do it now
ForeverBooty 23 Oct 2012
Aww...so what happens now that the results were off?
wrknonit 23 Oct 2012
I have 54 days to bring my iron up Dr. Cardenas will not do surgery if your blood count is low!
ForeverBooty 23 Oct 2012
O ok, you can do it! I was taking 365mgs of iron by the forth week over a four week course. The amount increased weekly.
wrknonit 23 Oct 2012
Thank you I was just thinking back I think I know why my blood count was up...my child had a virus and I ended up getting it the same day but at night totally slipped my mind!
wrknonit 23 Oct 2012
I am mean down *my white blood count was down
bootiebeauty78 23 Oct 2012
Hey wrknonit I would just make sure you talk to Dr. about what you are hoping to acheive with the surgery. See what she can realistically achieve for you. Good luck!
shaell2000 15 Oct 2012
Congrats as Dr. Cardenas is FIERCE- I have a good friend who went to her and looks amazing..... Keep us posted! Plus she is far cheaper~ Good Luck BBL Sister!
RedBonz 11 Oct 2012
A while back I was considering Dr. Cardenas and I was also deciding on where I would stay. Although I am no longer choosing her as my doc, I would recommend staying at club med. I think they are better service and better amenities. I talked to Dr. Cardenas husband who is an Black American Man and he was very sweet; however, there facility was not offering meals because they were under construction I believe. So you need to call them and see if they are now offering meals because it makes no sense to stay someone where, while needing nursing care, but have to fend for yourself when its time to eat. Thats a no go.
