Post op day 31. Saw my ps today and he was extremely happy with my scar. He said that I can stop using the compression garment but I think I will take that day be day. Just use it a little less each day. I have some pics that I am posting.

Hey TT family. Sorry it's been a little while...

Hey TT family. Sorry it's been a little while since I have posted. Today is post op day 18. Feel good and got that dang 2nd drain removed last Friday. So happy. I've been doing more each day. I am going to post a couple of pics. Side view looks good. Now you can see a partial view of my scar. It is thin so I hope it goes away eventually. I still swell but I am supposed to. My ps says that I am coming along just fine. In fact I don't have to go back for 2 weeks unless I feel I need to.

Thanks, I can't tell until I take the pics. The best thing is that my panties do not roll up under the "brim" anymore. Wonderful. I will be keeping an eye on you :) Keep in touch and ask me anything especially since we are so close.

I saw my ps on Monday and only 1 drain was removed. I will be 2 weeks post op on Friday and the tape and drain will both be removed (no stitches). I will post my post op pictures then. I work from home so I went back to work the Tuesday after, it wasn't too bad. I just had to remember to get up and move so I didn't get stiff.
I appreciate the good wishes and love this site. Reading all of the experiences really kept me calm. Whatever I was feeling someone else had alredy been through it. Thanks to all.
