Feeling great!
I've started wearing my garment as needed rather than 24/7. Mostly when I travel for work on airplanes. I noticed at first I became super swollen going without it, but each day gets better! These pics are after a trip to California, such a long flight 5+ hours for me. I'm a bit swollen, but I also have not been working out once since surgery. Now that my body feels better, I'm starting a new workout plan next week. I have the flu now, and it's my first time! I honestly don't think it's as bad as most say. I'm moving today as well. I'll update again in a few weeks after my workout program is underway :)
Headed back home after the holidays
It's almost been one month! I go back to my doctor this week for another check up and massage. I think I still have a small seroma so I will get that drained as well. Here are some before and after pics. I am still very swollen. Last night I was so swollen my stomach felt super tight. I spent the last four days traveling by air and walking all over the Disney parks. I think the extra activity made me swell more. I am tender to the touch and have a lot more zingers throughout the day. Some really make you jump! I have a lot more feeling but still a little numbness. Also, look at my rib cage area below my breasts, this area is quite swollen I think and VERY sore. It's the only part that hurts while lying down. I hope this goes down and isn't just the same as it was before. It feels quite squishy, but it hurts to touch or massage. Almost like bruised ribs. Hopefully my doctor clears me to begin working out again soon
Home for the holidays
I'm home now! It's been a great few days. I have started to develop a small seroma. My doctors office is closed but they directed me to call another doctor, he said it was not emergent and that I should call my doctor when I'm back in town. It doesn't seem to be getting any bigger, but after reading info online about how they can form "capsules" around the seroma making them almost impossible to get rid of kinda freaks me out. I'll call my doctor when he's back in just to be sure I'll be okay. I won't be able to see him until January 2nd at the earliest, my next appointment is on January 4th. Hopefully it'll be okay. My drain site is healing okay, it looks normal I would guess, but not very pretty at the same time! I hope it doesn't leave a scar. I swell up MAJOR during the day. My activity level is much higher being back home helping my parents and playing with my nephews. It feels like my skin is super tight, almost stretching at the end of the night. These pics are from the morning, I honestly think I went down about two inches over night because the swelling went down! Looking better and better each day!
