That's how I felt. Had mine done on the 1st. I'm still healing but I'm happy so far. As long as you have support you will be fine. Just keep in mind that healing process is not a quick one. Here's a few tips for post surgery. Keep sodium intake low. No salt top saltiness, natural fruit cups and applesauce are a savior when you don't want to eat but have to for pain meds. Pineapples help with swelling. Also pain meds constipate you. So if you doc doesn't give you anything for that (mine did), stool softners and greentea can help with that situation lol. I was fortunate that I didn't give my rocking glider with foot stool away cause that has been where I've been sleeping, tv watching basically living in since surgery. Alot of women post that they use recliners. You more than likely will have to walk hunch over, which causes havoc on lower back. A hot water bottle works wonders for that. If I can help you with anything else I would be than happy to. Best of luck on the 15th. Keep us posted.

I mostly ate boiled eggs and whole wheat toast for bk. Lunch was turkey sandwich no cheese or low sodium soup. Dinner was whatever my husband cooked. Protein shakes (Muscle milk) Applesauce fruit cups (the no added sugar one) fresh pineapples, apples no salt saltiness crackers. Are the grapes and strawberries burning your throat? I didn't have that problem. Hopefully this helps you. My pubic area is so fat right now you would think I have an ice pack in my panties lol I hope that made you smile,laughter hurts to much

Hey, I'm doing much better. I only really hurt when I sneeze and thank to allergy season that's often. I really want this swelling to go down that's my major complaint and I still don't feel comfortable sleeping in my bed. Tried it 3 separate occasions and awoke more sleepy lol. Are you feeling better? How are you doing with the burning situation and weaning of the pain meds?

Hi I stop taking the pain meds the burning stop and I couldn't go for days and I could see my intestines I had to call my dr stool softener wasn't working told me to use dulcolax suppositories it workkkkkkk I can't wait till the swollen go down my stomach tight and swollen I slept in my daughter the first four nights because my bed is high now I'm in my bed I walk around the house a lot it help than when my back I sit down lol I need a new band its to big I hate the cut

I know the cut looks crazy and the swelling makes it worse. As your swelling goes down you have to get smaller bands. I'm wearing a compression garment. Being that I had some lipo on my outer thighs being that I'm hippie it's tight enough on my lower body and not so much in the stomach area. So Im gonna have to wear a band on top. Also pain meds constipate you. I was told to switch to 3 advil or 3 motrin for pain. They work pretty well and help with swelling. I'm glad the burning stopped. How I miss my bed and a few other things lol. So I go for another post op appt tomorrow hopefully Doc can tell me something to do for this swelling. If he does I pass the info on to you
