Round 2 Tummy Tuck
Day 6
Back to the BBL! My ass hurts like hell if I sit or lay on it the wrong way. I just started being able to sit all the way down on the toilet and the back of my butt does hurt a bit when I sit down. My bowels moved 3 times yesterday as I had not gone since the day before surgery. Had to give myself new 101 butt wiping course with my flushable wipes and squirt bottle. LOL so I've basically been watching a lot of dam tv back and forth laying on my stomach to the boppy pillow. The most daily action is my shower in the morning and I can't stand up for a long period of time so that goes pretty quick. I was walking with a baby two step rhythm for the first 3 days and I've now graduated to a more penguin walk. Yayyy for me. LOL
Update Day 1 & Day 2
I had to arrive at the surgery center at 6:30am and my procedure was to start at 7:30am. When my fiancé and I arrived the facility looked lovely. The staff greeted me and went over my documentation to make sure everything was accurate. They then took me to the back to prep me with my gown, blood pressure, IV, and pregnancy test. Then Erica stopped by to introduce herself, she works side by side with Dr. Shifrin in the surgery room. She made sure that I was comfortable and informed me what was going to happen next and that Dr. Shifrin would be in the room with me shortly to make his markings on my body. Then they brought my finance in the back with me until it was time to go in the surgery room. Dr. Shifrin came in and greeted me also with a big smile and assured me that he was going to take good care of me and I would look great! Although as we discussed before I am a candidate for a full tummy tuck due to me having skin that hangs past my waist area, and I plan on getting this done early next year. Dr. Shifrin assured me that my waist would look good although I will have a little skin hanging and I'm ok with that. One of the staff members wheeled me into the surgery room and they helped me get onto the surgery table/bed and that's all I remember. I woke up in the recovery room and they had juice and snacks for me, my fiancé joined me until I was feeling well enough to go home. Once I got home I took my pain medication and I just wanted to sleep.
Day 2
I had all my medications laid out to take on schedule. I have to pee every 3-4 hours so it forces me to get up and walk around. It's a struggle moving around but I'm making it and it's getting better slowly, just taking baby steps. My appetite is pretty good and I'm always thirsty. The Lovely Ms. Adrian called me today to check up on me and I informed her what I was doing for myself and she informed me to keep it up and that I sound pretty good. I have an appointment this Friday and I will receive another garment to wear as I'm currently just wearing a white Velcro waistband that they provided me with yesterday. So all in all I'm doing pretty good, I've attached pictures for you all to review and I will keep updating my profile and post more pictures in 2 weeks so you can see the difference a bit more. Take care ladies and thanks for all your support.
Provider Review
I only have wonderful compliments to give Dr. Shifrin, as he has exceeded my expectations in every way! He's so knowledgable about his procedures and I love that about him. His work speaks for itself and once you have a consultation with him you will be very satisfied that you did. His staff is wonderful and Ms. Adrian which scheduled my consultation from the start is Phenomenal! I would say that she's the office manager/coordinator, and she has been communicating with me since my consultation, before and after my surgery and whenever I basically request or ask for anything including speaking to Dr. Shifrin.
