WORTH IT$11,000
So today has been good, I havent had any pain meds (ugh i hated the way they made me feel, lol) still very swollen but pain wise I have no complaints other than when I get up it aches a little. I go visit my PS tomorrow and I'm just excited to be getting out of the house,lol. Wanna hear something funny?? Ok I am a very secretive person and told almost no one about the surgery other than my bf and a couple of friends. I did however tell my cousin/aunts that I had my appendix removed (that was all i could think of at the time) so they come over to visit me today and was like " oh so they put drains in you when you get your appendix taken out?" Did the dr cut you on the right or left side, how big is your incision and it all caught me off guard where my bf and I just busted out laughing, he walked out and said I'll let you ladies talk! LOL so needless to say I went ahead and told them. I laughed so hard but boy did it hurt,lol. I took some more pics which I will upload here in a second. Hope everyone is having a great evening!

Hi JenLarae I feel kind of "loose" so to speak, I guess it just bothers me because I read that others do fine with theirs but Im gonna stick to my PS rules. Can't miss something you never had, lol

Ok so at this point I'm slowly watching the clock, after today it will be DOWNHILL from here...Unfortunately I won't be able to get a recliner because all the rent a center's in the city were out of stock! What in the world?? The only store that had one was a media chair which didn't look comfortable at all. So I'll be going to Walmart to buy a lot of pillows, I have a chase so that should be fine. I've been taking my Vita Medica pills and I pray that they really do help with brusing and swelling. Yesterday I began taking showers with Hibiclens, my PS said he doesnt like the wipes they give you at the hospital. Anyway any comments or last minute suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am so dern nervous that I can't control myself, but I know it will be all worth it in the long run.

You will be fine without the recliner, lots of pillows is all you need. I am older than you and short and have done fine. Sometimes just need abit of help sitting up to get out of bed. Try and relax tonight, light meal, and lots of fluids today! I am one week post op tomorrow and no regrets.

I cant beleive your ps does not believe in a garment, I love mine and its helps with the pain when you move around. I have my tt Oct. 31 yesterday was 2wks and I went from a med.garment to small. I only take it off when showering and cant wait to put it back on. I have had no problems with infection. My ps would not let me take any meds 2wks before surgery and Only thing I could do for bruising was to eat fresh pineapple. I did that 2wks before and never bruised. The chair does work but being u could not find one go to wal-mart and get a husband pillow and keep pillows under knees. I kept ice packs on tummy for swelling it was great.I still do it if i feel swollen. I like you lost weight. I started at 172 and got down to 135 but tummy would never change. I'm lots older than you but possitive attitude has everything to do with healing. I pray for you and will keep looking for your pics. See you on the flat side. :))
