Dr Salama, Make Me Bootyful! - Aventura, FL

Surgery was yesterday. Everything went well (praise God!!). When I was called in inside, the first thing I had to do was to change into my open gown, compression socks, slipper socks, panties and cap for my hair. Then she wanted me to pee in a cup. I couldn't pee, so i was in there for awhile. She knocked on the door and said if I couldn't pee, it was ok because the Dr was ready to see me by then. So, I met with "The Man" Dr Salama. He went over my paperwork with me, advised me of the risks, asked what results I wanted, and prepared me for surgery by marking me up. I told him that I wanted something natural looking.
So after that, he left the room and I waited for the Anesthesiologist to come get me. I waited less than 5 mins and he pops in and says "Are you ready?" And I say "Let's go!". So, I'm lead to the operating table and the nurse instructs me to lay on my back. Then the Anesthesiologist inserts a needle in my hand, gives me oxegyn and tells me that I will be asleep soon. I think I fell asleep right away because I don't remember anything after that. I just remember waking up thinking, "That was quick". I was shivering like crazy! The nurse put a heating blanket on me for a couple of mins, and gave me oxegyn. She then proceeded to dress me while laying down, then assists me onto a wheelchair and gives me a Capri Sun. I was so thirsty and tore that juice up in what seem like 1 big sip! She said " Oh, your done already?" Lol. Then she wheels me to my husband then proceeed to wheel me outside. She helps me in the car and advised me to lay flat on my stomach. After surgery, I was feeling groggy and out of it. I didn't feel any pain, just soreness on my butt (a feeling sore like after a nice butt workout) not pain. On the was back to the house, I was still out of it. It takes an hour to get back, but it seemed like 5 mins!
By the time we got home, I was feeling good! I was walking normal, had no pain whatsoever! My husband made me some chicken noodle soup with some crackers and Gatorade. That was the first thing I had eaten all day, so it was the best chicken noodle soup I ever had (Great Value brand) lol. I peed 3 times that last night. There is a pee hole in the garment they provide, so that helped a lot. I got to use my PEZ femal urinal, which fit right in the pee slot of my garment.
I took my prescriptions except for the Percocet because I didn't need it at the time.
It was difficult to sleep last night. He wanted me to switch positions every two hours which was no problem because I couldn't sleep anyway. I was up until almost 6 am in the morning. That's when the soreness started hitting me all over my lipo areas. So then I took my Percocet and had no trouble sleeping after that.
I have attached my after photos. I'm very, very swollen right now. I can't wait til the swelling goes down.

I have my preop and surgery tomorrow. I have to be there at 9 am. I've been feeling nervous all week! Now I'm feeling anxious! I'm ready for this surgery and pray for a great outcome. Here are my before pictures. I dread posting them, but i hope for a dramatic change. Pray for me ladies!

So, I went and got my ekg and labs done this week! Come to find out, I had to pay (getting billed) over $500 for my lab work! I have medical insurance (BlueCross Blue Shield) but the hospital told me that since there is no diagnoses code associated with the lab work I need done, my insurance will not cover most of the tests! I was pissed, but I was like freak it! I need them done because I'm less than a month away from my surgery.
So, I was able to check the results on the hospital website that evening. Surprisingly, the results were in within a couple of hours! Everything was good! I was so relieved. I have a problem of worrying too much. Was worried that I wouldn't get the results on time, was worried if I was going to pass everything and so on. Thank God everything went well. I was able to call my doctors office yesterday and asked if my doctor can review and fax the info to Elite. To my surprise, she did! My doctor fist told me that she would not fax or give me clearance for the surgery until she saw me 1 week later! But because of the time frame, I took a chance in calling to see if she would do that for me, and she did. Man..God is good!
