Almost 3 weeks out
WORTH IT$9,800
It's been a while since I've been on here....but honestly it's just because of the holidays. My surgery went fantastic. I start back to work this week and I'm so ready!!! Drains are out and I start scar therapy this next Thursday. Not even sure what all that includes or what exactly to expect, but I just completely trust my Dr and I just show up when he tells me to. The results I got are far above my expectations. I'm still in awe and wake up every day so thankful that I was able to to have this done. Sometimes the thankfulness just overwhelms me to the point of tears. Thankful for less pain than I anticipated, thankful for my entire supportive family, thankful for the people in my life that are genuinely happy for me, thankful for a way to actually save up the cash to do such an amazing thing....and thankful for a Doctor that is so phenomenal.

What a fantastic transformation! You will feel better day by day. Happy healing!
your tummy looks great. How is dealing with the tubes? How are sleeping? Bed or recliner?
amazing, happy for you. Your Doc did great. I feel like i am still dreaming as well. Just continue to get through the next few days/weeks. My back stopped hurting just prior to week 3. Friday was 4 weeks. I am almost straightening up, still some pull and i have to accommodate.

amazed!
I woke up today and my first thought was, (how many more days until my TT?) HAHA!!!! It was already done!! I feel 10 times better than I expected. But im sure it the pain pump (numbing medicine, not narcotics) I am still in pain, but not much. I get to keep the pump until saturday:) Dr. Rumalla is amazing. He was able to remove!!! Skin and fat from 2" above my belly button!!!

So excited for you
Hi!!! Im doing 10 times better than I expected. Im sore all over. But when I sit still, I have no pain at all. Im not sure if your Dr is giving you a. Pain pump, but I HIGHLY reccomend it!! Its not pain medicine like morphine or anything. Its numbing medicine. I get to keep it inside for the first 72 hours. Also I totally get the "back pain" thing!! Its pretty bad. But my grandmother had a walker and it helped a TON!!! I'll keep you posted! I go see my dr tomorrow (saturday) for him to re-bandage. Im allergic to adhesives...so im stitches, gauze and binder. Thats it:/
