Back to 100% normal
WORTH IT$13,000
I just wanted to update my review with some before and after pics. I am completely back to normal and this surgery has been life-changing! I am so thankful for the skill of Dr. Wendel and his staff. I'm back to my normal exercise level and I do not regret anything!

My 42nd birthday, 4 weeks today and Happy Thanksgiving!
Today makes 4 weeks from my surgery and I feel AMAZING!!!! I get to start wearing my stage 2 garments today although I haven't minded my binder at all. I have to say, having this surgery has been one of the BEST decisions of my life. I was mentally prepared for the downtime and pain, although the pain was well-managed by my meds. I have been very fortunate to not have much swelling and for that I am VERY thankful.
For those of you on the fence about this surgery--get yourself as healthy as possible and close to your goal weight and then DO IT!!!! Today is my 42nd birthday and I can wear my high school cheerleading uniform again thanks to my TT and the amazing Dr. JJ Wendel!!!

Doing great!
I am continuing to recover well. I saw my urologist yesterday and he said I was his "rock star" patient and my bladder sling is functioning perfectly--that's been such a blessing to no longer have bladder problems!
I'm sleeping flat and on my side again--feels great. I do get a little swelled at night and sometimes need to just rest but otherwise I'm great!!! My only regret with this surgery is I didn't do it 5 years ago.

That's great. It sounds like your helping quickly. I notice that a lot with people who seem to live a healthier lifestyle. Eating healthy & being active

I am! I have no doubt the shape I was in before played a huge role in my somewhat quick recovery.

Anyway, my youngest are 2, so I think it would be much easier to recover from all of the surgeries at the same time.
