36yrs Old with 2 Kids; Lipo, TT, MR, Back Bra Lift and Fat Transfer to Hips

I'm so excited for you!! I really think you should stay the first night in Columbus. He is a great dr your in great hands.

I'm excited for you! I'm scheduled for July 13th. I'm 2 hrs away, and I'm hoping the ride isn't so bad either.

Although things rarely go badly, I think staying close by the first night is wise not only for comfort but also for safety. even if you have an emergency room near-by at home. If you have a problem and call your surgeon from home, he will have you go to the emergency room to be checked-out just to be on the safe side. If you are in his town, he can have you return if it is just later in the day and if it is the wee hours of the morning, he can meet you at his office bright and early, if it does not sound too serious. If you were only having lipo and bbl I would not be too concerned that something might arise but the tummy tuck is more complex as is the back bra lift. I hope you can stay a couple of nights before the ride home. It is difficult or near impossible to get comfortable even in a hospital bed the first few days, I think you will be miserable in a car unless you have medication that can safely pretty much knock you out. I did not sleep three hours straight until the 5th night.

Omg you will be there around the time i am there i am scheduled for june ..22nd. I cant wait still gotta get my iron up ughh been trying for 2 months. I think you should stay i am 5 hrs away and i am stayin for 4 days.

Good idea. Then you can see him the next morning before you head home.

I'm 5ft tall with a long legs and a short torso; praying my back will look better, lol. Dr. Cochran said he will lipo as much as possible; however, since the skin is hanging off and thick, he will cut it and lift it for a flat smoother back.
