Pissed off
I wish I could go back and change my review of that facility. In some areas, they will only be given a star.

Disgusted
I’m so disgusted with Dr Marium office. I called to tell them how swollen I am and her team of people were rude. I was cute off and put on hold in the middle of talking. I was told if it’s to tight then take it off, I’m the one that’s not go have the results I’m looking for. I wish I never went to this office. I should have followed my first mind and went to Jersey. I have paid almost 10000 and this how you talk to a person. I’m starting to hate that office.

So over it
These last few days have been horrible. Yesterday was my first post op opt. Everything is healing pretty good. I was given a new garment, I hate it because it’s snap between the legs. I feel like it’s to small because I can’t breathe in it. I’m not comfortable in it at all. I can’t even unsnapp it myself to use the restroom. I think I have gave up on eating. With this garnament on I can’t do anything. They even want to me to stand up and walk straight, but how?? I can’t even move in this thing. I’m so uncomfortable. I hate that I did this to myself. And what’s even more crazy is that they changed my meds. I needed a refill and I was only given Tylenol to take every 6 hours. I’m not a pill person, and I swear I didn’t think I was going to take the ones they given me but baby! I’m miserable and I’m in so much pain. This little onesie is making me want to say forget it. My pain is 10. And on top of that my insurance didn’t cover all of them. They only covered a week supply. I will post pics later. Right now I’m trying to get comfortable. This standing up straight is killing me.

Oh God do I remember. Girl. My Dr and I laughed yesterday about it. He said he doesn't remember anyone being as uncomfortable as me. Remember my FIRST POST. I felt like I had been beaten with a bat in an alley. Now you understand what I meant. I had foam padding in too, so it literally felt like I had a couch cushion stuffed into my garment. I was advised not to change it, even tho it had dried blood on it and it felt like HELL. I literally did EVERYTHING they told me. I didn't shower for almost a week, kept my garment on 24-7, everything. I just felt like I spent all this money (bonus from work) on this surgery, no insurance, I'm getting my money's worth. All I can say is be patient. I have more than half my pain meds left. Wish I could sent them to you. I hated that they made me so sleepy, and remember I went back to work in 7 days. OUCH.
I sat in my chair like straight up like an arrow. No extra movements, the pain was unbearable. I literally sped home daily to change and unzip part of that garment.
Try to keep busy. Facebook, Internet, cooking shows anything to take your mind off of the pain. I promise you, you will love that new body. I promise. I still have some lumps and fluid, he said try a heating pad. I did last night and they feel somewhat softer today. They will dissolve eventually but painful pulling up panties and putting on the spanx. Stay relaxed, get some protein in you if anything. You need that. Granola bars with protein at Aldi's. Anything light with protein and STAY drinking water. That'll help flush the fluid out of your body. Best of luck today lady.

Thank you so much for your encouraging words once again lol. I probably sound like a mental patient lbvs. I don’t know if I’m swollen or retaining fluid. This has been the worst experience for me. And i have been drinking plenty of water along with protein shakes. Today, I haven’t eaten a thing. I’m scared that I might burst out my compression garnament lol. And I know Your probably laughed when your doc told you that. How you felt is exactly how I feel. My doc don’t want me to do anything but walk for 10 mins and prop my legs up and relax. Can’t wait to do things, my house is falling apart. Oh and that’s exactly how I paid for my surgery too! Thank god for my job lbvs. So, I do know exactly what you mean.
Yes. That's what is great about this forum. Meeting folks that know and LIVED what you are going thru. I remember waking up one night like 3am looking at my guy saying I'm gonna cry, this hurts so much. Lol. About another week or so it'll start to subside. For me wk 3/4 was pivotal. Do NOT take off that garment. Also watch your SALT intake. I didn't think of that at first. It doesn't help, makes you swell up more. Remember that.
