WORTH IT$7,000

I have endometriosis in my c-section incision and have had 3 c-sections. I have to have the endo removed by surgery so I thought it would be a good time to have a tummy tuck! I have lost almost 60 pounds and weigh 193 and I am 5'9. the weight was not baby weight that I lost they came off immediatly as I did not gain anymore then 15-20 pounds. I am nervous and excited and should have the surgery in next 4 weeks. Insurance is covering the endometriosis and I am paying for tummy tuck. I dont plan to have liposuction.

What is endometriosis

quara

January 29, 2014

When I had my c-section part of my uterus cells were transplanted to my fascia inside my skin on my abdomen. So a mass has grown there its hard and you can feel it with your hand. It hurts like hell for 1-2 weeks around my period because it grows and swells and burns. It acts with my hormones just like my uterus so it does the same thing during my period. It happens from the knife rubbing against something accidentally or the area not being cleaned out properly during surgery. Its relatively rare. It is incredibly painful and makes me bleed like crazy.

I am down to 191 so i took some pics. I see the DR again Monday to hopefully get a date scheduled. I was not planning on doing lipo because it i have heard it hurts the worst and makes your body gain weight in weird areas. What are your experiences with it? And will I look funny if I dont do it? Like un proportioned? I want to have big hips and a small waist with a flat tummy. I was also curious if you can sleep in your bed or you have to have a recliner?

Good luck! Lipo areas do cause tenderness and manageable pain. I am 100% glad I got lipo also and do believe it assists in contouring.
