Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

3 days post op and I'm starting to not feel like I have gotta run over by a truck. I walk around my bedroom every so often and to the bathroom, but that's about it. My legs feel strong, but the hunching hurts my back. I tried to get off the pain meds today and just take Tylenol, but when the nurse called and I told her, she told me to get back on therm...trust her, I will need them the rest of this week. So, I went back on therm. My breathing is not deep, but I try to take deep breaths when I remember. No bowel movement yet and I'm getting concerned. I'm taken Miralax the last 3 days, but nothing. And I'm eating too. I'm going to have my husband pick up prunes and prune juice in the morning. My boobs are HUGE and I trust that this is just swelling and they will go down in time. Yikes! And this binder is so annoying because it keeps riding up to right under my breasts; I will be happy when I can wear Spanx instead. Other than that, I am fine, if bored.

I am feeling better today...2 days pot op. Taking just one pain pill instead of 2. Trying to walk every couple of hours and peeing a lot but no BM yet. The worse thing happening today is coughing....it hurts so bad and I feel like I am going to split my incision.

I am home now, 1 day post-op. I had a really rough time last night at the hospital...I was in so much pain, mainly my breasts (because I have a pain pump for the tummy tuck). I alternated between the perc and morpine. Whew that was something! Now that I'm at home I going to take these meds around the clock, at least for the next couple of days. They do make my sleepy and loopy and I don't like that, but I can't have that level of pain again. I haven't gotten a look at tummy yet and my breasts are too swollen to see what they look like. I also have a slight fever and having a hard time breathing deeply into the breathing machine. So glad my kids and dog aren't here...just me and my husband.
