I think the problems is they took too much fat out! Going from a 10 to a 4 is a lot removed. The goal is to take some of the fat but leave a layer for the skin to retract down on. I had stomache lipo, flanks and near bra area as well as a breast implant exchange cause one of mine had deflated. Day 1 I took all meds as scheduled and was moving around fine. Day 2 I went outside and sat in the sun a bit, still taking meds as scheduled. It was sore to get up off the couch or to get in and out of bed. Also when you remove the compression garmet. At one time I screamed as I took it off, but it just hurt for a moment than I got faint and laid on the bathroom floor. I think what you had was a I'm not sure the term but Vaso something response where your blood pressure drops quick. Probably from standing and removing the pressure of the garment. I was warned its common to faint when removing it to take a shower so I wasn't scared. Suprised your dr didn't warn you. Honestly, I thought it was going to hurt way worse. Virtually painless when following meds schedule, just sore. I am one week post op and just still tired.
