Round 2 with Hector Cabral - Dominican Republic

I'm able to sleep comfortably on my side, although I am a still sleeping in the reckoning position, I have a rice size fleshy opening in my side, no bleeding just some delayed healing.
I am meeting with dr bonness here in Wisconsin on Monday for a follow up. I feel I am retaining abnormal amounts of fluid. Maybe I'm paranoid because I feel my drains were removed early. But I'd rather be safe than sorry. She is charging me $100 for a follow up appointment that would include drainage if needed. Her scheduling nurse informed me that if it seroma she would most likely see me for a week to drain, that's the usual period of follow up for this complication according to her office.
I'm hoping it isn't, but if it is why let it go and scar my expensive and awesome results?!
The black spot on my incision is all but disappeared which is great.
I'm still walking slightly hunched and still very swollen.
I found a nice girl here in Milwaukee who does lymphatic drainage massage and she charges $30 for 30 minutes!
I plan on starting next week and seeing her twice a week.
Out of everything I have the most pain in my arms. It's a stretching burning pain, gets worse if I try to push my range of motion, putting in a ponytail holder is awful.
My stage 2 garment fits loser than the first one I got so I'm back to wearing that.
Going to transition to a spandex garment in maybe 10 days.
I'll post pics soon.

still have my drains in.
having them removed tomorrow am before my flight now.
i picked up a new faja here, going to try to put it on tomorrow when i get back from my follow up appointment. santos here at the recovery house has exchanged it 3 times now for a bigger size, hips so wide. (not TOO wide ;) )
if it doesnt work i will try to return for my money back and get one online.
the one that cipla sold me is trash, it cuts into my bra line, not extending up under my armpit where my lipo reached. irritating. at my last follow up they were trying to sell me on a new one. like why not sell the right one the first time? Whats your commission? *rolls eyes*
my hemaglobin was 8.8 yesterday so i've been eating and sleeping, trying to let me body work overtime while i sleep.
my neck is very swollen.
ive been laying on my butt since i was tucked too.
when i look at my butt it doesn't look any bigger than before which is very frustrating.
we will see when the swelling goes down.

I'm 1 week post today.
Been wearing my faja for 3 days. The first faja day I filled my drain container 5 times. Today I have emptied it once and it is 3p. I was so swollen it was nuts.
I had a follow up yesterday.
Cabral is very sick so I met with his fill in dr.
They said everything is looking good.
They also gave me a drainage massage, when I tell you it must have been a gallon of fluid they squeezed out of me I'm not lying. I was retaining so much fluid from being on faja restrictions that I almost passed out twice during my drainage massage. That's how much come out if me. I felt so amazing after. My mobility immediately increased and I wasn't so stiff/sore.
My appetite is back and I'm finishing my meals now.
Took my faja off to wash today. It's nice to breathe. Just put it back on and my drain is collecting clearer and quickly. I must be swelling fast still.
The faja the clinics sold me sucks, it doesn't cover far enough up my sides under my arms, I had lipo there and I'm very inflamed.
There are 2 nurses here that are good. 1 I told her I don't want to see her face again and to stay tf away from me. I will write my full rh review when I leave.
I have another follow up tomorrow, Wednesday.
And then again on Friday morning, the same day I fly out. Hoping they remove my drains Friday.
Have not taken a pain killer in 2 days.
I'm able to move sideways I'm bed now, and get into bed. Still can't get out by myself though.
God I want to roll over onto my side so bad.
