3 Weeks Post Op
Recovery is tough, fitting in with life is also tough but at the end all I think about is it is worth it.
3 Weeks Post Op
So...A lot has happened since I last posted up here. I got back from Miami, it was a very stressful trip with two planes and two swollen feet. Our flight was delayed so we had to stay over for one extra day and man ive never been so tired in my life walking around the airport exhausted trying to figure out what was going on. Anyway, at the end we got back home safely, Thank God for that.
When I got back, it wasn't too hard to live my normal life. I bought a Yoga mat to drive around in my car with and I have my Boppoy pillow here with me. Not sitting is a pain in the ass though, it's really stressful. I have classes everyday and i have to sit on my rolled up yoga mat in class all the time. I made sure to let my prof know I had a surgery so I would get a little bit of a lee-way in class, which I did. He is very generous with timing and grades.
I try as much as I can to use my boards, but when i first came I didnt wear my garment and boards as often as I should. But now, i'm doing a lot better my tummy is much flatter and I go for my massages twice a week. I'm planning to have up to 11 massages, i've already had 6. So far it's going pretty great. I also had rashes under my breasts from the garment, which I have been using baby powder to dry up.
I recently ordered a small garment also since the large is getting lose. I first started with a 2XL then an XL, then a L (included with the price from Dr Salama's office). I ordered a Small Vedette 128 now, just so I wont have to keep buying smaller sizes and hopefully it works for me. I can't wait for my 6-week mark where I can sit. Omg did I mention it has been such a pain in the ass, literally? lol. Anyhoo...So far it has all been going pretty well, I have God to thank for it all. Pictures coming soon.
