Well Hello everyone, It's been another month and I am doing well. I am still so happy with my results and my decision to go to Mexico and Dr. Gutierrez. I will be honest I've had good days and some bad days. About two weeks ago I went to get in the shower and while I was cleaning my scar I noticed that I had fluid building up under my incision it was on my left side right about at my hip bone. I was in a panic. I called Dr. Gutierrez and spoke with Elsa, she was very reassuring and told me she would have Dr. Gutierrez call me right away. he called within the hour and told me not to worry that it was very common to have fluid build up. He suggested I go to my family Doctor to see if the fluid would need to be drained. I decided to try and go down to the next size in my compression garment. With the help of my husband we got me in the smaller size and the next day I made an appointment to have my Doctor check me out. When I got there I was happy to hear that the fluid had dispersed and absorbed back into my body. He told me that the best thing I could have done was switch into the smaller garment. So my advice to everyone as soon as you think you can breath comfortably in your garment SWITCH TO A SMALLER SIZE!
After that it has been pretty normal, I am still really slow and cautious when I go up and down the stairs or walking outside. We still have a lot of snow and ice. I take it one day at a time and each day I feel a little better. I am starting to notice some sharp pains around my incision area but I have been told that that is common also and it is just the nerve endings starting to fuse back together. It's not bad just an attention getter. LOL. I am posting some more pictures that I took this past weekend. Thanks for reading !!

Dr. Victor E. Gutierrez is such an awesome surgeon. He really does have his patients best interest at heart. You can completely put your trust in him to make the best decisions for your reconstructive surgery. I could not imagine going to any other surgeon after the excellent care I received from Dr. Gutierrez and his staff. As I stated in my review Dr. Gutierrez is amazing. When I arrived at the San Diego airport he was there to pick me up. I immediately felt relaxed he was friendly and very reassuring. He had made my reservation for me at a very nice Hotel. The next morning he picked me up and we went to lunch all the while talking and getting to know each other. I was so happy with my decision he really does care about his patients. I can't think of any Dr. in the states that I've gone to that are willing to spend the time with you and get to know you more than just as a patient. I left Mexico with more than just a fantastic make over. I left with new friends too, in not only Dr. Gutierrez but with his assistant Elsa also. She is the best, I think of them often and can not wait till I can get back down to finish my make over and see them all again.
