Today makes 3Weeks !

I can't believe I haven't sit in 3 weeks. Directly on my bottom. Today was my first day super iffy but I'm doing it. Sitting on hard things kind of bother me so I'm sitting in only cushion chairs. Other then that I'm ok. I will post pic of me 3 week post op. How does my booty feel? Well it's feeling good just some places are still hard. I tell you when it comes to this procedure it is good to have someone to talk to that has also or don't the procedure. The reason I say this is because being on real self is wonderful. You find people that has done the procedure, doing the procedure and even people that has been to your doctor. It gives you an advantage. I found someone off of rs that when doing the same procedure, same Doctor and the day after me. Connecting with her and after surgery staying in touch we have the benefit of knowing how each other are doing and if the way your feeling is similar to there's. Basically if your going to do these procedures I just suggest you have someone to speak to. Besides RS it works out better.. Xoxo

My last post op w. Dr.Ortega


POST OP. Day 1

That 1st night I could barely sleep I was very uncomfortable and the bed was also hard so that didn't make it any easier. Dr.Ortega prescribed me OxyCodone ,ondansetron, cephalexin (you can google if you want to know what they do) . The next morning I had a post op at 845 and a massage. When we got there it was crowded so they suggested I do the massage first then my post op. Now when I tell you about the masseuse her name is Yazna she is an ANGEL sooooo sweet. You can tell she loves her job. She taught my boyfriend how to put on the faja, compression socks and the foam boards correctly. Yazna also suggested I should also buy the arnica tablets it helps with the inside healing and the Arnica gel is more so for the outside healing. Her hands are magic she took off my faja and I saw my bootay for the first time ! (Love at first sight) Yazna massaged me and massaged a lot of water out of my tummy. When she worked her magic the water/blood. SPLASHED OUT I was in shocked but she said that this is good. This is what we want to happen. When she was finish the same nurse I had before my surgery Came and did my post op appointment. She just checked how I was doing and asked if I had any questions.. If not I was good to go and that my Dr appointment with Ortega would be Friday. When i went home I took my first shower. It wasn't so bad my boyfriend helped me.. After the shower he rubbed the arnica gel, put on my faja, socks foam boards and gauzes. YaZna also said the best way for an faster recovery is to WALK ! so after the shower that's exactly what we did walked the whole ocean drive strip. Still pacing, and in pain.. 1-10 the walking was a 7 1/2 but it was a must. After the walk I was very tired. Laying down is difficult after i get up from laying down anywhere it made me really stiff. Walking and standing was my best bet.
