Day 2 post op everything went great still in pain and needing assistance thank god for my hubby. But today I see my doc and hopefully get any of the 3 drains removed :) sleeping on a recliner which is esaier to get to the bathroom in and out of feeling sore and tired I have tried walking slowly inside my house since its so hot outside ! Haven't seen my scar probably today when doc removes gauze he didnt send me with a binder home he doesnt send anyone he says it constricts blood drainage ..but I can see that my fat muffin is gone! And that makes me happy so far ..wish everyone fast healing and I will post pics soon
