7 months

So my hips disappeared and my butt is almost all gone. Now, I have to worry about getting a TT because my skin is loose around my belly button and lower abdomen. When I'm standing, it's ok. And if I wear my stage 2 faja, after taking it off I look ok....but then I go back to my loose skin. Specially when sitting, it is very noticeable creating some rolls. I don't have the 2 indents on the sides of my butt, but it is just barely noticeable that I got any work done. I spent so much money that I thought I was gonna be content with at least having a little more curves. My waist to hip size is back to being the same as before the surgery. I just thought I was gonna be snatched. Now, I'm looking for a Dr. for round 2 lipo and definitely getting a TT....looks like it'll probably be in COLOMBIA.

Day 9: Finally feeling better

So today has been the first day I can say that I'm feeling better. I did wake up with a headache and stiff neck due to sleeping on my belly. But, I am starting to feel stronger and my appetite has gotten better.

I was concerned about my lower abdomen right on top of thigh crease. That's the place where I see significant swelling and like a bulge. I'll be sending pics to the doctor today so let's see what they say.

Night 2

So on night 2, I woke up with my heart coming out my chest and a really throbbing headache. I tried to relax, drank some fluids, but still feeling horrible. I took my bp and it was really low 86 over 66 and heart beats per minute was at 121. I tried laying down and at 4 am I couldn't. Something was wrong. I called the 911. They checked my vitals: the bp was a little higher but still low, and the EKG showed my heRt was going to fast. So, I went to the ER. I left messages, but it was after hours and the doctor never got back to me.

At the hospital, my temp was 100.5 f. They did many exams, including CT-Scan, chest X-ray, EKG, rectal exam and blood labs. Everything came back normal with the exemption of my blood labs!!!! My hemoglobin was at 7?! I had anemia ????????. By this time, the doctor had already called me and the ER doctors had gotten in contact with him. I was in so much pain, weak, and devastated.

It all made sense now. My period had been so heavy 5 days before surgery. I had modified my eating to 1700 calories daily 3 weeks prior to surgery and now it I was suffering!

I have been feeling so weak...no matter if I'm laying down, standing or kneeling down my heart is beating super fast. I'm really worried and wish to feel better ASAP. I'm eating protein rich and high in iron food. I've been getting a slight fever today on Day 4.

Also, I showered today on day 4. I thought I was was gonna die. I almost fainted. Thank God my husband, mom, dad, and sister came to my rescue. My sis gave me 2 nausea pill to put under my tongue, dad got my ginger ale, hubby held me up and told me positive words, and my mom gave me alcohol to smell. I literally said I'm going to pass out ????. Thank God I didn't ????????. I did feel like I had to do a BM. TMI.....so I was still holding on to my husband standing in the bathroom. I got in the bathtub, mom put a basin and I did my first BM. It was so much and like rocks. My face was green they told me. I was sooo scared.

Today was a really hard day. I'm praying that as the days go by, I start feeling better and my hemoglobin goes up. Please prayers up. I never knew this was going to be so hard ????.
