Almost one month

I've just had my ninth massage and boy oh boy was it painful. I have a lot of tightness in my lower back and lower sides and around my belly button but other than that everything else is ok. Lymphatic massages are not as relaxing as they sound lol. I stopped taking the oxycodon and i take 2 Tylenol extra strength (500mg each) and i was not ready for this massage. The lower back and side skin is soooooo sensitive. When clothes touch it, it burns. I also take tylenol pm. I do not like pain!!
I've been needing more compression and since good garments are $$$ I put on the waist cincher from Dr. Salama and to my surprise, it fits! The garment that I was wearing is 2XL and this waist cincher is a medium 0.0! I believe I need a little more support for my butt so I've been wearing whole support panties like in the pic. I actually feel a little better using the panties than the whole garment because it doesn't leave lines and make my butt appear super shiny from being so tight.
My back seems to get tight the quickest. My next massage is in one week because my masseuse wants me to heal a bit more. She has to get a bit more "rough" and my body isn't ready.

Truth

To be honest, I haven't been wearing my garment 24hrs how I was in the rh. I bought a garment that was supposed to be "smaller" but after a day of wear...it was actually pretty slack. I'm now going to wear the original garment that I got from dr. Salama since it gives me more compression (I stopped because it was putting permanent indentations in my butt) and it fits differently now. I haven't slept every night in my garment. I wake up stiff either way but subconsciously I feel that I allow my body to heal properly in the nude at night. Idk lol. Strangely though, i only itch at night. Again I should have waited to return to work. I do 8 hours on my feet and it's waaaaay too much for me.

Still retaining fluid

He makes sure you know exactly what's going to happen during and after the procedure. There's no beating around the bush, he get's to the point. I love it! I received so much information during my consultation, my brain was a bit fried! lol! Cynthia and Nancy went over everything again and you get a packet chock-full of information. I feel VERY confident in my decision to go with Moises :)
