good morning.I had my ower and upper abs done on the 24th. I feel the same. like you just runned over. I am still very swollen and also my mon (pubie) is also very swollen but drained for the past 4 days. It was purple. very scary looking. On my right side is very sensitive and hurts to turn over in bed and to get up from sitting to standing. the garmet kinda keeps things solid. but last night i also felt round..do you have problems with elimination? I feel like my bladder is still half asleep. my doc took out 2700. after it was all done they stood me up and lipod alittle mre. then I felt like i was gonna pass out. 80 over 40 was the b.p but i am only taking ex strenghth tylenal. I have to go back to work tomorrow. i work in a hospital and i cant still bend over,, but my surgery hurt even after i had the ativan, litocaine and everything else. it was mostly on the right side. and i have to go for a mini tuck next year cause i had damaged skin from babies that wont shrink back and my surg doesnt do that part. well lets see how everthing works out in the next 6 months so your not alone with the swelling. keep me posted ok?

I had 4600 plus taken out of my upper/lower abds, love handles. You will be fine just wear the compression garment very tight and take the water pills your Dr gave you. I'm 3 weeks post procedure and I doing great my pubic area is finally going down and I just waiting for my 6 week check up to do before and after pictures.

today is i week. I saw my doc the day after surg then again tomorrow. i have noticed last night my abs on lower are alot more firmer because of the garment. but my doc never gave me a water pill and i have some trouble urinating alot. we measure tomorrow. i didnt drain much only one spot on the mon for 4 days. thats the pub area. but still have a knot near my belly button. but i may have a good bruise inside there so.but wear the garmet as san said and it will ok yes my pubic is still swollen but at least the purple is fading. but the garmet actualy is good becasue it keeps things in place

i had smart lipo upper/lower abs and "flanks" she said she did my flanks but idk cant tell~

i got smart lipo on the upper and lower abs. they took 2800 cc out.but i am swollen and the harness is the fluid and the abd wall he told me. and i would notice a big change from now till may. i do feel better plus i am 180 and it is mostly belly or was should i say//

I has lipo of abs and flanks done April 28. I wasn't given water pills either, it is my understanding that it is dangerous to take them after this surgery. I was up 8lbs after from swelling and it was back down after day 3 post op. I still have some swelling and doctor said it will get worse before it gets better. I could see a big improvement at my doctors visit 3 days later. See my post and pics. Best of luck to you, hope all goes well! If you post a question for one of the docs on this site they will answer if for you.

I was given maxide it's a Blood Pressure plus HCTZ which is a diuretic I don't really think it works too well so I use a lasix 40mg every other day when I feel like i'm bloating. Hope this helps
