Drains!!!! The death of me

WORTH IT$8,800
Only have one drain in still but it feels like its taking forever to drain to a low enough amount so I can get it out... hopefully soon... this pic was from a few days ago. Feeling pretty good. The tightness is crazy when I laugh or cough or sneeze! Worked out a little today to see how I felt.m and did really well but noticed I was extremely exhausted very fast during the workout. Happy at the moment with how my incision is healing and my belly button is looking pretty good.

What an amazing man. Extremely attentive. Helped calm my nerves and saw me in the office when I told is staff I had more questions. He shows REAL photos of his cases. I wanted to make sure that my belly button ring hole that stayed after 12 years removing it would be cut out and he did it!!! Just over 16cm muscle separation that he sewed back together. I feel super tight which I am sure is a good thing. My husband was so happy with his service s I was in recovery he immediately personally called my husband to tell him about my procedure and kept I'm involved every step. He personally called me from his cell phone the night if surgery to see ow I was doing and offer that if I needed anything or had questions at any time to call his office and they will call him. Just an excellent physician giving what you want to the best of his ability and takes his patients wants/needs seriously and tries to execute them accordingly. Thanks doc! Can't wait to see you at my first post-op appt.

Response from Dr. Rex:
You are very kind to share your experience with others. I hope you look back at these first difficult weeks as a good trade-off for a nice, new physique.

Finally Made It!!!

I will write more about my experience once my vision. Is not blurry due to the anti-nausea patch on my ear has come off which should be tomorrow. Just had a bad episode where I almost passed out going into bed so hubby and children. Assisted me to lay down and raise feet. I can't believe I can see my vagina!!!! Tmi I know but it is what it is... looks so good right now even though I'm majorly swollen so I can't wait to see the final result.
