WORTH IT$15,000
Tons of swelling but getting more active. If anyone is considering a TT, I highly recommend 3 weeks of a work break. 2 weeks would not have been enough for me.

Day 19 post TT with flank Lipo. Developed fever day 16 and started on Cipro antibiotic. One drain removed day 16. Second drain site than began to get weepy, clogged and angry red around the site so nurse pulled 2nd drain on day 17. Hoping for no Seroma and that this antibiotic kills off whatever is causing my fever. Will post more current pics tomorrow. Now that drains are gone, what kind of compression garments are people wearing? My dr said to continue with plain white binder they gave me right after surgery.

Hope you're feeling better!! I had 6 drains, he removed 1 at my 1st post op this past Thursday. For a compression garment I bought 2 at Walmart- the brand is Flexees, it's a bike short but comes up high enough past the tt incision. I love it, does the trick and it's comfortable! And it was only $13. They do run kinda small, so I got an XL and it fits fine. :)

You are looking good! At least your doctor seems on top of everything and already has you on antibiotics! I just wore the plain white binder until I got the all clear not to wear it anymore! Happy healing! Keep on resting!
