I had my first follow up with Dr. W and he was very nice also.
As for the pain...I just don't think there is any way around being uncomfortable. I did have some issues with my first pain meds and broke out in a rash so they changed them then all was well. I strongly recommend you take those pills like clock work and don't skimp. Meaning take the full dose everytime for most of the 4 weeks. At least that is what I did and I was only questioning my sanity in decideing to do the surgery that first week or two. The BA and lipo were a breeze for me it was the TT that made me the most uncomfortable. Keep in mind I stayed in the Atlantis for the first 5 days so was not in the comfort of my own home, but I slept most of the time so really it was not a huge issue for me. I hope this helped you, and feel free to ask me anything. You are almost there! Soon you will have that hot body you have wanted for years and years. :)
Mine didn't peel but they, the nipple on my left bob was and still is very sensitive. Not as bad as it was to start with, which was it hurt when water hit it in the shower etc. hubby still has to be gentil with that one.i thought it was because I started with inverted nipples and the implants were forcing them out but maybe it is same with a lot of implants? Your are looking great by the way
Thanks. I don't think I will post four week pictures as I can't see any difference in the amount of swelling. It (the swelling) is just not going away. It is of course much worse at the end of the day. I took my binder thing off for several hours yesterday and was really swollen by bed time. I am just wearing a wrap today around my stomach. We will see how that goes. As I did lipo I am not sure if I should be going without my compression wrap but we are at another lake this next five days and don't want to be uncomfortable.
