6 Months Now

Soooo apparently all my recent problems have all been related to extremely weak abdominal muscles. I had no idea how weak I really was until I started to exercise. I'm slowly getting stronger and feeling better! Baby steps. My PS said my muscles are equivalent to a 60 year old women! I have a long way to go but I do have determination :)

PS Visit

I met with my PS today and he says I do not have muscle repair failure. He believes my side stomach muscles need strenthening so he advised me to do some exercises daily, eat clean, and take probiotics. I will follow up with him in a few weeks. He also said I definitely don't have a seroma either. He seemed a little baffled by my situation too. He said he will help me with everything he can and I of course have to do my part as well. I tried to keep my composure during my visit but of course I couldn't hold it together and cried quite a bit. He was very patient with me and understanding.

Thanks again ladies for all the support :)

Here is what my belly looks like at night. It's somewhat better in the mornings but not much. I've been doing some research on here and I have found several similar cases of women many doctor's say it's probably muscle repair failure :) UGH!!! :(

I was refereed to this PS by my vascular surgeon who has seen his work and has highly recommended his work of artistry. Once I meet him I fell in love with his warm character and felt incredibly comfortable talking to him. Not to mention his extensive background in plastic surgery I knew he was the right PS for me!
