Here I am 2 months and 1 week post op. Had a visit to Dr Mark Moores office two weeks ago. Had a red lump and a very sore red part of my scar. Called up and was told to come in to get it checked. Turns out to be a stitch trying to pop through. Got a course of antibiotics and come back in a week. A week later and it's not as bad. Still sore but not as red. Just have to keep massaging the scar line. Still have a section of my upper belly area that is muscular pain. Feels like I've done far too many sit ups. Dr said this s my muscles and hernia repairing still and will take up to 6-12 months to be fully healed. Omg. Lol. They say no pain no gain. Anyway I'm still wearing my compression undies. Dr said I can reduce my time in them so I don't wear them to bed. Gel funny not wearing them and still hold my belly for support when I turn in bed or get up to the loo. Anyway that's just a small update for now. Will post a couple of pics.

Wow. Who said this would be easy. Post Full HipTo Hip Tummy Tuck with extensive Muscle Repair and Hernia Op. Stabbing pains in the tummy were a worry. Had my first post op appointment with my surgeon and he said its the muscles and nerve endings repairing so not to worry. Gave me some pain meds to get me through the evenings and bed time whet the swelling and pain is worse. Got to see my incisions without dressings on. Will post pics. Will update again when I have more news.
