Ups and downs and new things to report
1) belly button is better very small but better doesn’t look ugly or infected anymore
2) my black area pealed and now looks like healing tissue
3) now what worries me is my drain hole. Drain was removed. 17 days ago and it hasnt healed and still leaks so
It started to look gross and yellow and i noticed stitched coming out so dr Tania told me clean it and cut them so I did but it did not improve so w aired and waited and nothing so today I went to a pal surgeon who agreed to see he did a debridment and took all the brown and yellow stuff out and cut my stitches but now guys it looks like a hole with white tissue inside and my husband freaked out
Please guys keep me on your prayers and send me positive e thought so I can get past over this

Sorry for being negative

Hey guys I feel like I have been pretty negative but I don’t meant to be that way Dr. Almonte left me with an amazing waistline it looks amazing ???? just the process of healing has been hard for me due to the fact I have had some issues like la k of oxygen to my incision and now a possible belly button infection and the fact that no plastic surgeon here wants to see me just to do a check up adds to the pile of things I have to worry about


Remember every experience is different
That’s all for today dolls
Today is day 25 post surgery

Day 24 post surgery

Lord this has been hard
Let me first say that doctor Tania Plasencia is amazing and she always replies to my messages and questions she’s so patient !
Ok so I felt like belly button was looking weird so I decided to ask Tania and I was right so listen to your bodies ladies

My belly button isn’t. Healing well and they believe. Might have an infection
I’m worried bc no doctor specifically no plastic surgeon wants to see someone who had surgery abroad. I called every single surgeon in my city…

praying everything goes well for you, did it end up being an infection?
Not sure yet I sent the picture to Almontes sssktsnt and she checked with Almonte. Almonte gave me instructions to clean it and close it until today do Ismaili ent her pics today and Tania told me it looks better but she needs to check again in two days.... she asked me to close it up with gauze and not to open it for gel days and then send her a pic.... so Monday I’ll hsbe to do that I’m so worried nevsuse if I have an infection what doctor is going to see me ? What if it’s an exposed suture or something else ?
Sorry your having trouble with recovery. But don’t freak yourself out so much honestly it doesn’t look so bad looks like something minor. Does it hurt or anything like that ?
Doesn’t hurt at all,,,that’s why I wasn’t worried at first I just sent a picture to the doctor just wondering if that looked alright
