I got my drain taking out, it didn’t hurt, honestly I didn’t know he had tooken it out! I did have 40cc’s of fluid in my upper abdomen that Dt. Sexton drained out with a huge needle which he said he may have to do up to 6 times If it comes back, the drainage wasn’t too painful though.

7 Days Post Op
JadoreNiorAugust 17, 2018
Whooooaaaaaaa ok so here I am 7 Days post op feeling a tad better! I took a shower Day 4 which made me feel much better although I still have my drain connected. Surgery is pretty intense no lie! I can walk and get around now however too much walking causes my lower back to heart. Guilt has started tugging on me because I can’t hold my daughter whose 11 months and she doesn’t understand why mommy isn’t playing with her! It makes me feel selfish:(! All in all recovery is going well!!! Ready to get rid of this drain next week!

So far so good! I Am a 29 year old who received a tummy tuck on yesterday(8/10/2018). Dr. Sexton and his staff were all so nice especially the ladies at the front of his office :)! I’m very sore and I can’t wait to see my results! Right now I have on my garment compression and can barely walk. I haven’t seen my stomach post op yet but I can tell it’s way flatter!

I'm 7 days PO from a MM to include MR. Just like you difficult to walk. But trust it gets better every day. Still difficult to walk, soreness and stiffness. You are going to be ok. Don't try to do to much. When you get to take you first shower/chair bath that makes you feel better also. Take your time and take it easy. Praying for a good and speedy recovery for you.
