  • Posted to Nervous Schedualed March 1st for TT W- Lipo - Massachusetts on 14 Mar 2011

    SMom,
    I really don't think you can do more than you body lets you. I have been very active since day 8-9. I walked around the block with my dog on day 10 and it felt great to be in fresh air, as well as stretching out the sore back! I got both drains out on by day 9, which I think being up & moving helped to do. You look awesome, congrats!

    I had my full TT on 2/28. It has been much easier than I expected! It was not painful, more a tight discomfort. I was given oxycodone, which did stop me up. You are so numb afterwards that it's hard to say if the pain med really did anything. I stopped taking it by day 3.
    I had to go upstairs the day of suregery to my room, it was not a problem. Your legs work fine, you just hunch b/c it's so tight. I have to say the most relaxed you will be is when you are under in surgery! I feel awesome and I am so happy I did it, it's all been sooo worth it.
    Good Luck:)

    By the way are you in the immediate Memphis area? I am in G'town. We should have a tt coffee get together sometime! I think I am going to do the velcro thing, I need to send my hubby to Hobby Lobby for velcro today.

    ttreally,
    I am doing good, thanks for asking! It has not been nearly as bad as I had anticipted, which has been nice.
    I don't have any binders or tape, just glue. It's the only way I know so it's been fine. I went to my 1st PO appt. and she said it all loooked great.
    One drain sight is pulling at the stitch today and it bothers me more than anything! My swelling is not bad at all, I can tell the difference big time!!
