I had a TT 2 years ago and am now 73. Initially, I was thrilled but as time went by not so. I went back to the physician and he suggested having a ultra sound which proved nothing. Because of my age and spinal issues I did tell him I didn't need a rock hard stomach but wanted to be able to wear a fitted dress. I think I'm back to where I started.
