Tummy Tuck, liposuction of hips and flanks. Super excited and nervous at the same time.

I went in yesterday for a consultation on Tummy Tuck and liposuction of flanks, and back I just wanted an all out overhaul after loosing 125 pds from gastric bypass and working my azz off in the gym. I told the surgeon I had a Pulmonary Embolism 10 years ago and a IVC filter placed along with me taken Warfin and the surgeon said he wouldn't do it at first because of that but then he said he would do it if I had clearance from the hemotologist. I really need to get rid of this excess baggage. Has anyone been through this? I made appointment to primary care doc and hemotologist in which they said it wouldn't be a problem for clearance the surgeon would just have to take extra precautions such as leg compression, lovenox, ect. I really want this doctor and I just pray all goes in my favor. Any insight?

Surgery scheduled for March 14th . The nerves ohhhhhh the nerves.

I have worked hard to get where I am today. I want to be an inspiration to others seeking to make a sound decision on their decision. My surgery is coming up next month and although I'm nervous I'm ready!! I will be uploading pre op, wish pics and post op pictures lol. Stay tuned!! Their are not many African American men posting on here so hopefully my uploading of pics will help, because I know we are getting it done
