    Yochelle The Arnica tablets aren't doing squat. I go back to the dr. who did the procedure tomorrow. I'll let you know what he says. This totally sucks. I still look like a sausage!! Have you come across anyone else with our issues?

    Hi Yochelle Went to my PCP yesterday and he is sending me to a gastroenterologist for evaluation. He (physician) didn't have an answer for me as to why I am still so swollen-said it doesn't seem like fluid since its hard-so that's why he referred me. I have an appt in a couple months. Also, bought the Arnica tabs-3 tabs 3x daily is what the bottle says. We'll see if that makes a difference.Keep me posted on your healing.

    Hi Yochelle Thank you so much for keeping me updated. Ugh, drain the fluid? I can think of nothing more unpleasant than having to go through the SmartLipo again!! I am seeing my primary care dr on Friday for his opinion. I'll let you know what he says, but it'll probably be that I have a lot of fluid. I have even taken OTC diuretics to no avail. 6 months? I could've been on a diet and looked better than I do now in 6 months.I am trying to be positive but its hard. I had a crying jag tonight-told my husband I am the only person who has lipo and ends up with a bigger belly than when I started!!

    Thanks Chris I go to my PCP on Friday for a check just to make sure something else isn't going on. Nice to hear what your dr. said

    Perfection-it has been 7 weeks and I still have a big belly. Any advice you have would be appreciated. I am thinking it really didn't work??Is that possible?
