    I had the same problem after my TT. I finally had to use a Fleet Enema. What a relief it was. The pain meds, plus the anesthesia are soooo constipating. If you have to stay on any pain meds at all, use a stool softener daily. Good luck!

    I purchased my silicone sheets and wrap from Amazon and got free shipping as well/ the compression belt has silicone sheeting inside of it and is called the GelZone. It is great and cooling. You cannot use the silicone of any kind until the Dr. Gives u the ok. It will be a while before u are ready for them/ your Dr. should provide you with a compression garment after surgery.. I woke up with mine already on. Everyone said for me to massage my scar, but I just could not tolerate and still cannot tolerate the odd feeling of the scar not having full feeling back. Research and get your best deal!

    On Jan 10th of this year I had a full TT with muscle repair, and lipo. Girl, let me tell you.. I am 40.. and NO WAY will you be able to lay on your side. The only way I could sit or "lay" for 2 weeks was nearly sitting straight up, maybe 1-2 pillows behind my back. It was a couple of months before I could lay on either side. You will be MISERABLE if you do both of these at one time. And with the drain tubes you will come come with!!. I was sooo sore, I could not wipe my own butt for over 2 weeks. I would re-consider the BBL... I'd rather have a flat stomach, Buns of steele would come later for me! LOL. Hope everything goes well for you...it's a true experience!

    I had a full TT with muscle repair on Jan 10th of this year. I am 5 ft tall and weighed 165. Very fit and physically active and full of muscle. I had twins 4 years ago and it made a doozy of my belly and muscles. Best dicision I ever made. I LOVE the silicone sheets!!!! They have worked wonders. I hope you have great results. If you have a TT with Lipo, and muscle repair.. beware of the soreness!!! I couldnt even wipe my own butt for 2 weeks after surgery. Be prepared is all I have to offer.
