Post op day 12: So far the recovery process is...

Post op day 12: So far the recovery process is going pretty good. No pain since post op day 2 or 3. My PS and staff keep saying the more I walk the better I will feel. So the last 3 days I have been doing laps in the mall. No, I didnt buy one single piece of clothing except my Spanx. I guess reality havent set in but it does feel good to wear a fitted T-shirts again. I am still walking pretty slow and have not straighten out 100% but it get better day by day. I look forward to waking up the next morning just to see what improvement the next day will bring.
Swelling! That's a topic within it's self. After 5 pm is the worst but what concerns me the most is the swelling above my incision. At times I don't know if it's swelling or my PS pulled my fat roll down lower.I mean I am so flat until u get right above the incision and then it look like u could jump off a cliff. Its been that way since I awaken from surgery. Think I will try putting ice on it to see if that help it go down.
Last thing is that I am so happy to found my PS. I recommend anyone in the area to go to her. I am out of town at my sister's house. That's always a good time. Happy Healing everyone.

Post op Day 10: Got my drain out . Hallelujah. No...

Post op Day 10: Got my drain out . Hallelujah. No pain at all when it came out.Afterward I was able to walk around a couple of stores but still hunched over slightly and moving slowly. Man I am so ready to start running, but every morning I see a little improvement. Doctor recommends spanx. I haven't wore a compression garment thus far so I have no idea what to get. Any recommendations? I also have alot of swelling in my lower abdomen. Does anyone else have this?

Post op day 7: Really not to much to up-date....

Post op day 7: Really not to much to up-date. Still cant stand up straight. I tried all day but this stomach just wont give. I only have the one drain and it putting out about 10cc/8hours. Called my PS office and made an appointment to have it out on Monday. I could not do it today because I am still on my blood thinner shots and have to be off for 24 hours before they will pull the drain. Is anyone else on blood thinner shots. If so, How may days?
Still unsure about the surgery and how my abdomen look. I am pretty sure I am in for a revision, but I do trust my PS and if she say give it 8 weeks before I judge thats exactly what I am gonna do. Hell thats all I can do and she knows best. Still love my belly button. Hope its just as cute 8 weeks from now. I want to take a 3hour trip(driving) next week. Do yall think that is too soon.
Happy healing. its seem like the July 13th crew has been very blessed with a great recovery.

Only thing I can say about Dr. Eby is she is simply the best. Her personality is so calming that I knew from day one I found the right PS, Her bed side manner is so compassionate and caring that you never feel rushed and you instantly feel like you are in great hands. Her staff is very bubbly which I like. To top it all off, before surgery the nursing staff told me how wonderful and meticulous she is and how a great PS and how they have patients come from all over to to have surgery with her. They raved about her which made me feel more relaxed.
