Well I am 6 days post op and am overall very pleased with the results that I can see. I have 3 drains right now that that hopefully will be reduced to zero or at least one on my first follow up. The one unexpected thing I have encountered was severe constipation, which laxatives did nothing for. After my embrassing ER visit after a 5 day "back up" I have stopped taking my pain medication, a narcotic, which was likely to cause my problem. Pain actually hasn't been too bad, except for coughing, sneezing, and laughing (all of a sudden my husband is a comedian!) I will post pictures once I have the drains removed, and good luck to everyone on their journeys!
