I am getting a TT, Lipo with fat transfer for BBL, and breast reduction and lift. I have hated my body all of my life and I have been stalking realself and doing research on doctors since I joined. I am finally on the road to surgery and sent in my deposit to book with Dr. Duran. I am looking to meet any one from New Jersey that is planning their trip for the end of June 2016. I am over joyed to finally be able to wear a body I am proud of...

In order to accommodate my son's school schedule I had to change my surgery date to the 7th of July. I am super excited. But need help.
What type of "faja" is the best to buy!? Why do I need post-pregnancy maxi pads? And is anyone traveling from NYC/NJ in the first week of July and staying at Maria RH? I am already booked and plan to arrive earlier that week and stay with family till my surgery date.

Intramuscular hematoma (rectus abdominis)
ijperezSeptember 22, 2016
I have had a number of things happen during my recovery process. I decided to have my procedures done by a surgeon here in NYC, on June 22, 2016. I had a breast lift/reduction, tummy tuck (what a disaster) liposculpture with fat grafting (laughable) and Brazilian butt lift (that you can't see improvement or contouring on). During recovery I developed an intramuscular hematoma, which the radiologist read to be 6cm long and level in the muscle. My surgeon read the report and said it would resolve itself.
I have now had this very painful, very swollen, debilitating hematoma in my abdomen for over a month and none of the symptoms have resolved.
I do not sit, stand, sleep, bend, turn, etc., with any type of ease or comfort. My core mobility is hindered by both pain and pressure. As a result of my own research I began to use compresses and restarted wearing compression garments (which my surgeon/pa recommended I stop using when a hole at the TT incision became infected and would not heal {this is still resolving}). I try and rest, but it is impossible to completely rest ones core.
All of this said... I NEED HELP!!! What type of Doctor should I be seeing and what can I do NOW to relieve the pain, swelling, bulging, and pressure?

Btw... The compression garments all fold at the belly button and create such enormous pressure that I am usually in pain while I wear it as well. This paired with HOW VERY SWOLLEN I still am at three months compared to ALL of the dolls that have had procedures done with my favorite doctors in other countries, makes it more uncomfortable to be in the garments. The compression garments all fold right below the hematoma and it is terrible.

No worries, pics are totally optional. We'd love to see some clothes pics if you are comfortable sharing those, you can use a sticker or black bar app to make them more anonymous if you want to. But again, totally your choice.
And no, it is not refundable unless there is a serious emergency. Dates can be moved.
