  • Posted to Tummy Tuck/lipo to Flank and Hernia Repair - Maryland on 28 Feb 2012

    It's been three weeks for me and I just started on the treadmil but could only do 20mins on level 2. I just didn't want to over do it! I feel much better but at times I stand up but can't stand all the way up straight and i feel sore all over. I think to myself this was not worth it. My friend and I went to the mall and every bikini I tried on my scars hung out in one way or another. Guess I'll stick with a one piece. Just really let down by the whole process and my belly button is a mess! Plus before I'd wear a bikini and now no way. And boy do i miss a bath or relaxin in my hot tub. Oh well! Lesson learned

    I had my surgery Feb3 and I still haven't seen the surgeon! Definitely makes you feel like just a paycheck when all these other women are being seen several times by their surgeon b4 we are even seen once!
    Nurse told me to put bacitracin on it that neosporin is too hash/strong. Well I need something more. Guess I will call tomorrow but I just hate to and really hate going into that office after how the nurse treated me last time! I made an appt with my primary care dr and tomorrow I'll ask her to look at my belly button and hopefully give me something if not then I'll be off to see the rude nurse! Lol
    I'm not feeling like a brand new women! My stomach it tight and swells and my back is swollen and sore from wearing this binder all the time. I've lost like 15lbs but that is bc I got the step throat and couldn't eat or drink for days. Since then I have lost anything I'm starting to gain it back...lol However I can fit into my jeans again even wearing my binder. I'm with you on feeling my worst in the morning.
    Good luck getting the drains out by the weekend! It defiantly feels a lot better and makes wearing clothes easier. Are you driving the kids to school yet?

    I had my tt on Feb 3. My dr is not very well with follow up or after care. I have both my drains out and told I could shower. My question is how long do I have to wait to take a bath or get in the hot tub?
