sooo today is the big day i was originally scheduled for 7-19-13 however, my iron was to low so my dr wouldn't prerom the surgery because apparently if your iron is to low you will need a blood transfusion. but thanks to sss tonic my iron is now at a healthy number to prefom my surgery. im getting lipo on my abdomen,flanks, upper and lower back. i think i have realistic views as long as my lil pooch and back fat is gone i think i will be a happy camper. see you guys tomorrow

Congratulations! I had similar liposuction on 06/28/13. I had extensive liposuction on my flanks, bra roll, waist, inner and outer thighs. I am impressed you have not had to take a lot of pain medication which was very different than me. I had to take my medication in order to stay on top of the pain during the first week and started lowering the dosage and frequency in week 2 & 3. I have had considerable bruising and swelling. Take it easy and get lots of rest!
