38 Years Old 4 Kids, the Wait is Over!!! - Istanbul, TR

Hi guys, hope you all are good and finding things easy in your CS journey.

I am looking to buy extra binders and faja for my post op and I am really struggling. I know the hospital will provide me with one. I am just looking to buy extras for when I clean the one I will receive from the hospital.

Any suggestions will be appreciated guys.

I am yet to pay the Balance on my Surgery, I think I will pay on Monday hopefully.

I spoke to Rana yesterday (she is my Surgery coordinator) she went through my travel plans and explained what and what will happen on my arrival at the airport in Istanbul (airport transfer and pre op and post appointments, procedure day etc)

That call made it even hit me harder that I am actually doing this!! Oh my days, I have waited for over 8 years to do this and now I am just 4 days to actually getting it done.

I can't control my nerves though. I didn't think I will feel this way, but here I am, a nervous wreck he he he....

2 days ago I had this weird dream of death, and woke up all worried, but that didn't last because I prayed and said to God, please see me through, you know my heart and know I have been wanting this for long, please protect me and see me through unscathed.

I have read several people get like this close to their surgery date, experiencing it however has been really shitty but I am being positive about it and God is my strength.

Prayers for me guys and I will prayer for you too... Kiss to y'all

So it's starting to look real as I am now 4 days to my Surgery date, and 3 days before my flight to Istanbul.

A lot has happened and I am sorry I have not updated my page since. It's been really stressful for me around moving home and preparing for my surgery at the same time.

I have been experiencing some pain in my chest area and shoulder blade.

I didn't really pay much attention to it until yesterday as it has then been 4 day since the pain started and it looked like it was not going away or getting any better.

So I went into my local A&E to get assurances for moving forward with my Surgery because the last thing you want really, is going abroad for CS with any sorts of medical issues. So I had ECG done and Xrays too and the results came back good.

The Doctors thought it was all muscle related and prescribed me Co-Drydamol!!

Am I allowed to take that now that am 4 days to surgery. I know i am not allowed to take any aspirin or any Ibruprofen (if I understand correctly) Can anyone please let me know on that.
Although I did ask the Dr that saw me at the A&E if I could and explained to him that I was having surgery done.

He said i should be fine, however, I didn't just want to take his word for it because I thought he may not be specialised in that area.
So please let me know if any of you knows if I can take this medication pre surgery. The pain is still there and weighing me down. The pain and the anxiety that I am going to have surgery is terrible, so any advise on the medication will be appreciated.

The Dr said it should help with the pain of I take it. I just need to be sure before I do.

I am still going to put up photos, please bear with me as I am new at this and also all over the place. The stress has been real!!!

I will make more updates regularly from now on guy( hopefully) please prayer for me in my Mummy makeover journey. God bless y'all.

I am a mother of 4 children. After having all my children, my body has changed so dramatically. I am very self conscious of the way my breast and stomach area looks now. Because of the way i look, my sexual life has suffered because i get depressed each time i think of sex with my husband. I have nursed the though of having surgery done now for over 8 years and i am now ready to take the journey to getting my body and self confidence back. I has attended several consultations here in the UK and was going to go with a company here when a colleague of mine told me about her experience with Longevita, i looked them up, reserached on the company and after several week, contacted them. the responded swiftly and Merve my Patient experience specialist is superb, she is handsdown perfect. very sift to respond to all questions, calm and atticulate. I love her. I have had my consultaion with my Surgeon via Skype and he was able to answer several of my questions saatisfactorily.

I have paid my deposit and booked my flight. I am very nervous as my surgery date approaches. I think that has a lot with the fact that i am having mutiple procedures and that scares me. I am praying and i also believe everything will work out fine.

Fingers crossed and counting days. I am looking to start buying supplies for my pre and post op, any ideas will be much appreciated. Keep me in your prayers y'all.
