I was not nervous at all the day of my surgery. The first 6 weeks were the worst with a feeling of regret.
I went for a mile walk assuming, I'm ok. I continued having alot of discomfort, The nurse said it was normal, i continued to drink 800 mg of ibuprofen. On the 3rd month,I walked 1 mile and a half, right side pain as if i jogged more than i should have. I visited my family Dr ( his wife has had more than one cosmetic surgery). he thinks i might have started exercising too soon. I was confused because i was told to do a lot of cardio but NO LIFTING. And all the reviews i would read did not sound like mine. Just last week my scar hurt a lot i could not walk comfortably. Maybe i slept wrong. I am 10 days away from 4 months, I' m afraid to do an aerobic class. I love how my pants fit and i lost 10 lbs.
Any comments will help. Am i the only one feeling this way?? : (

Everything went well with Dr Rios, its the recovery I'm worried about.My right side still hurts , I cannot do much not even sleep comfortable, I used the ultra sound machine for 4 weeks but it didn't do anything for me. I wish I. Knew this pain is going to go away soon.

hi there! sorry to hear you are having pain still. I’m one year post op and I still can’t lie flat on my stomach. not from pain though, it just doesn’t feel good being stretched so far. I think I read under another comment that you had hernia repair too? do u think it’s possible that the hernia came back? it’s the only thing I can think of that would be causing pain. Hope you start to feel better soon :)

Came over here to read your review and I can’t help but be concerned about the pain you are having so far out from surgery. The fact that it is on one side too seems like something could need to be looked at. I really hope it goes away soon, I feel terrible you are having to deal with this for so long. Even if you exercised too soon I can’t imagine that would cause this long term pain. Keep us posted!
