Well 11 days post op and still have 1 drain. Was hoping to get it out today but still too much draining for that. I am feeling more comfortable but have become very susceptible to mood swings. I have had an emotional breakdown like every day this week. I know or rather hope I am still swollen and this is not the final results but I still see improvements but I am just having a hard time. Anyone else been here?.....

Ceelyn,
I just found your post and had a question to ask about what all what included in the tummy tuck price with Dr.Gray. I plan getting a tummy tuck with lipo and lipo on flanks, but am trying to lose a bit more weight before scheduling a consult with him. I have heard good things about him and his work. So if you could, please let me know what all was included in the cost of your surgery. Thanks.

Question to put out there.... I want to take the binder off for a few just to bath and let it breath. But I feel so weird, almost nauseated without it on. I think it acts as a comfort/security blanket. I know my insides are not gonna fall out but you know.... But just for a few minutes I would like to sit with nothing on. Nothing to adjust. Ah.....

I have posted one pic. I still cant get my profile pic to load and have not received my pre-op pics from my PS but trust me when I save there is definitely improvement. I go for my first post-op appt Tues, 15 Feb. So I hope to get the pre-op pics as well as more post-op pics to post.
The journey to this day has not been so bad. I was able to handle the drains and even keep up with my meds but still had my mom there in case I needed her. She has her own health issues but said she enjoyed having to worry over me instead of the other way around. I love her. My dad would even come home at lunch to give me my blood thinner injection since I was definitely incapable of doing that. So I know I am truely blessed to have some awesome parents.
All in all I am most satisfied with the surgery and hope to only see improved results as time goes on.

Yes, I have been there, felt that, and am STILL feeling that! Find comfort in knowing that so many of us have felt exactly what your feeling now and that as time goes by it does get better. I am almost four week post-op and am still struggling occassionally with the emotional toll this journey has. It's so much easier to get through it just knowing you the support of others - we're strangers I know, but yet I found the most comfort from the women on this site. My last drain wasn't removed until two weeks after my surgery, despite never reaching 20 mL's/day. ugh...I know it's challenging but stay strong!! :)
