Pre-op done
Went to see the PS and got all my questions answered and everything signed! I am really excited but getting a little anxious. It is the day after my pre-op and now things are getting real lol. I do have a few questions. I went to fill all of my prescriptions and was wondering if I'll need 20 tabs of (phen) for vomiting? I only filled half of the prescription due to I feel like I'll waste it. Also i forgot how long you are unable to lift anything over five pounds? Is it 4-6 wks. I talk to PS about the compression garment and he said it was adjustable meaning Velcro. Does anyone else have one like this and is it comfortable?

most of the garments I have seen that have come from the PSs' are usually a velcro looking garment... I know lots of ladies have bought various garments to put on after drains are removed for better compression... I am not sure what my doctor will say, I meet with her again at the end of November and my surgery is December 18. And again about the lifting of anything over 5 pounds I have her it anywhere from 3-4 weeks, but you are not able to go back to fully working out or intense activity or the 6 weeks... again it probably depends upon how you heal and what your PS directs. So excited to see your "afters" and follow your journey to the flat side... praying that everything goes smoothly and you are ecstatic with your results!
