Feeling much better today went to see Dr Alkon he took off 1 drain and will take the other 1 off on Friday. I feel more comfortable since he took one off I still have to wear the binder. I am very excited b/c I am looking GREAT! Just like I wanted, I am still very swollen hope it goes down soon. I feel like my boobs hurt more then my tummy tuck.
