Sorry I couldn't post everyday transition but everyday I guess I get better especially reading other blogs. I'm still in some discomfort especially with sleeping, I can't stand straight I can't stand for a very long time. I have a townhouse so I'll go up or Down stairs at least twice a day. Because I'm a single parent I wanted to take my daughter's shopping for school but after reading some of the blogs I'll wait, it's only been 1 week as of today, sorry I'm not that brave in fact I don't do well with pain, I knew this would be painful but dang this is long it get stressful all day every day. My best friend got a tummy tuck 3 months ago and she said her doctor said it was ok to sleep on her stomach to ease some discomfort, but my doctor said not now. My drainage bagso were only in for 5 days thank God that was in my way, lol thanks again everyone I need the encouragement the struggle has been real on this end especially with my 10 month old.

I'm in atlanta and Dr. MARK DEUTSCH did mine, it was 6,000 plus 2,000 for the hospital usage but you know they have payment plans and other ways to pay for the surgery

You are doing great!!! My drains were on for 13 days. It was horrible. Take it easy going up and down stairs. I avoid as much as possible. I'm still not standing completely straight and I'm 16 days today.

I try but I'm working with a teenager that can't sometimes get it right but she tries, lol did they say why so many days the drain have to stay in?

I'm not going to lie I'm still in pain, I haven't been able to sleep, I'm on muscle spasm meds which is not working, antibiotics every other day and oxcoydone which us definitely not working. I have called the doctor already just waiting on a response. I took my 1st shower today which wasn't as bad as i thought I would be. I'm eating and drinking well, I just wish the aching and pain would go away

Hey my love, I am 11 days post-op today. Dont worry, I was where you were a few days ago, and I can tell you it gets so much better much faster than you would think. My Doctor gave me Percocet as my pain killer which has worked great. Drink water, walk as often as possible, but do not overdo it. The pain will deminish before you know it. Good luck!

Good morning and thank you but I had to let the pain Killer go, unfortunately they were not working even the Percocet or Tramadol now this pain in my back and sides are about to kill me ugh I was not warned about how this recovery. But hopefully everything will get better, thanks again
