How's recovery going?
Drains coming out. :) so exciting. Seems so much easier without them. Swelling is really just an on off thing. Taking bromelin and arcana is suppose to help. Avoid salt in foods. Get lymphatic massages when you can. Sleep on a wedge or something to keep your head higher then your rear and keep your legs up (like a weird V).

Hi! I'd love a photo update if possible. I am hoping to have a TT with Dr. Careaga soon. Thx so much.

1st post-op appointment

Well today was my first post-op and all went well. The doctor said I was healing very well and my drains can come out at my next appt which is Tuesday.. Also, I had the lymphatic massage. Felt great and I have to say I came out of there feeling a little better and actually standing straighter. My PS and staff are excellent! More about that later.. TTYL
