Next Move->BBL with Dr. Fisher - Miami, FL

Hi ladies figured I'd update since I'm just laying around...Well checked out yesterday from the hotel to head out to my post-op appointment and was hoping to get my first massage since I had only paid for one so I figured I'd do it all at once but then was told that my appointment for my massage was set for 4pm but I wasn't planning on waiting around till 4pm so I was able to set something up with the spa from my town and lucky I was able to be seen. Drive home wasn't bad just uncomfortable laying on your stomach in a medium size car but I managed. Went to my massage appointment and when she was massaging the back it didn't hurt but when she started to massage the front that kinda of hurt it was a burning feeling but still got it done. Waking up today I feel sore as hell from the massage it's like I had done an intense workout. As for pain no i don't feel any pain last night around 10pm was the last dose of my pain meds I don't feel like I need them and I really think the cell saver has me feeling like this....I really expected server pain and thankfully I'm not. I did have to take me some Miralax cause I had the urge to use the bathroom but couldn't but after taking it, it worked an hour later:) feeling much better lol. I've been doing lots of walking and drink lots of water. I took some pics and I can say I love my hips I told Dr. Fisher to please try his best to fix my dog ears I previously had from my TT and he said he would try his very best so far I'm impressed. He did mention that once I did lipo on my back that it could end up looking loose cause he said I had loose skin and so far it does look like it but I'm still happy....not too sure on the butt though i expected more fuller at the bottom but we shall see I'm still recovering.

Sorry, on my last post it wasn't wanting to post my pics so making a separate post with pics.

Hi Ladies, I finally made it to the other side!! But, it almost didn't happen!!! Dr Fisher does not play when it comes to certain wording on your clearance letter. My doctor had submitted my letter Friday and it was considered to be a high risk patient. I was told by Ana that Dr. Fisher would not perform my surgery with a clearance letter like that. Well me in shock I was like "what" that's not what my doctor said the only thing concerning to him was that my blood pressure was a bit high so he put me on a small dose to be able to have my surgery. Well I got a hold of his nurse to tell her what was going on and she said that the doctor had worded it that way because he still hadn't received my EKG results at the time he wrote the letter but he said everything was good after receiving the results. I was told by Ana to retake one and send it to him so lucky I was able to do it and everything was fine with it. I took it to my doctors and he said he would rewrite my clearance letter to low risk patient. Now with this Dr. Fisher would be able to proceed, well problem with this is that was around 4:30pm 30 minutes before my doctor's office closes but I was promised it would be faxed. Yisel told me it wasn't sent but I was already told to be at the facility at 6:30am and she was suppose to call me to see if she was able to switch my surgery time with someone else well never received a phone call from her....talk about going through every emotion. I started to convince myself that maybe it wasn't meant to be but I was OK with that because I was already having second thoughts about going through with it after hearing all the recent bad rep the facility has been going through. Any who I figured I'd at least try since I was already paid in full and trust Dr. Fisher so I called the call center and they said my surgery was at 11 so I figured I would have time in the AM to call my doctor to see if it was ever done and the nurse said yes it was faxed that same day so I tell Yisel what number it was faxed to and she says Oh, that number doesn't work any more, like really!!! At this time I'm on my way to the facility just in case everything is received before my surgery. I get there and and am pulled to the back to prepare for the surgery but I'm like wait did y'all receive the clearance letter because Fisher will not proceed without it and shes like Yisel is still working on it. Finally 30 mins later she comes in and says I got it!! Yay!! Yea talk about being stressed before the surgery so at this point my blood pressure is checked and what do you know, yup it was high. The nurse checked with the Anesthesiologist to see if at this point it was OK to pop my blood pressure pill and she said yes it was. So at this point I'm like OK it's going to happen. Dr Fisher is just like ppl describe him to be a cool guy, funny and realistic. He takes his time with you explaining everything you need to know and expect, no sugar coating it. He also said I made the right choice for choosing to get the cell saver, reason being why I chose it, is because I suffer from being anemic from time to time and well I have read that your recovery is much better. So far it seems to be true I don't have any pain just discomfort. I will tell you though when I first woke up in the recovery room I was on my back and that [RS bleep] hurt like a bad burning sensation but once the nurse told me to lay on my stomach it went away. Well so far I'm not in pain as I expected i would be I have taken my pain meds just in case. I was out by 6pm. Dr Fisher. Told me I had to stay local because he said I had to walk every 15mins and my drive back home would be impossible which is 1hour and half, so my husband booked a room. Lucky I bought some of my supplies. I haven't bled as much as Doc said I would he said it would look like a murder scene which would be completely normal but so far not my case. I have already vomited 2 times so I took the med prescribed for nausea but that just started at 4am. Well guys I'll try my best to keep y'all posted.
