I really want to get this done and I have been reading other post and people are saying how painful it is.?! I have a high tolerance for pain soni think I'll be ok if I live thru it, pray fore I have 31 days before surgery. I've only wanted a tummy tuck for the last year

So I've paid for half the procedure and then the financial counselor suggest I take out a loan!!! Huh I just took out a loan I bought a 2013 I'm not going to be approved for that. Well she called today and said that the loan was approved, heyyyyy I'm happy now I can save that money for new clothes:) anyway, the procedure is still set for March 21,2013. My pre op appt was Monday now it's been moved to Friday Mar. 1.2013 so I'm getting really nervous and anxious because this TT is for my 30th bday and that's memorial day, not that far away! I'm hoping that the swelling is gone WAYYYYY before I hit 30. Let's see

Hi Ericka! Happy to hear about your upcoming surgery. Sad to hear about your friend, are you afraid because of what happen to her? I would be terrified. Do you know if it was because of the surgery or something else? I'm supposed to get my tummy tuck in April. I just read your post and I'm like omg! That just scared the heck outta me.
