TT, Flank Lipo, Hernia Repair and Muscle Wall Repair - Oklahoma City, OK

So, I'm going to put my hair up and I feel a "POP" in my lower abdomen! And I knew what it was immediately! So, I'm texting my doctor, emailing his nurse and talking to my boss. I sit down at my desk because the pain is increasing....I haven't heard anything from anyone....of course it was about 7am. So, I'm staying still and sitting at my desk until I hear something....anything....on top of that I have this thing with my body....I eat artificial chocolates and I break out in acne and small boils yes I know....gross. Anyway, I am massaging a sensitive area on my incision and I have cloudy fluid coming out. Ugh! And this fluid was before the "POP". Oh my, yes let's please make things worse! And I believe I got this due to the M&M's I ate with my girls. Fun stuff! Ok note to self no more candy with the girls! On a side note, I can eat as little as one "bite" or 5 M&Ms and get a breakout. Acne in my mid-30's lovely.....So, now I'm hurrying to wait :( I have slowed the fluid and now I'm sitting with this almost instant pooch and pain....Lets go Wednesday!!! :(

Doctor finally sends me a message and I'm going in today. For the most part I can do all of this myself. I need reaffirmation I'm taking the right path. I'll update once I'm done at the doctor.

I am continuing to lose weight. I have not weighed in today but last I checked I was 173.8 down from almost 190. And it's still going down. :) I've had some issues with the drain site. It's not healed well. But the doc has been there with all questions, frantic emails and texts. So, I'm pleased with that. There are a couple of things I want to fix when I am a little more healed. Some of the scar is unsightly and IMO could have been done better. Maybe it was not an option and I really did a lot of skin, but I don't know. I feel the drain site has gotten better now since I changed what I was doing. These pics are from last week.

So, I'm going to move forward with my breast lift and implants. I got my second consult done with Dr. Nuveen. I got 3 quotes for 3 different kinds of implants. I also had him add in lipo for under the arm area and the back flanks. The quotes came in higher than I expected. They ranged from $9,500 up to $11,500 and I got a discount of $2k and I would also do my revisions at the same time. Those included the saline, silicone and the 410M implants.

But in light of my disatisfaction in some of the scar, I've also decided to get a couple other consults done from referrals. It's amazing how when people find out what you had surgery on, they share their experiences. So, I've scheduled two other consults in the coming weeks. Part of me feels like I'm cheating on my doctor with another doctor lol I am also using the Dermatix Ultra on my scar currently. I don't really know what it's suppose to do but help the scar.

But I also have realized that it's probably going to cost the same if not more to do what I want that the first time. So, I decided to get a second job to pay for it. And I tell you what, working part time and only for two weeks I've made enough for my deposit to hold my date. *happy dance*

I go to see Dr. Gonce and Dr. Benien here really soon. I have read some reviews for Dr. Gonce and looked at their experiences and I have to say I'm impressed. So, we will see what is in store for me really soon. :) In the last pic I got a pic of all of me and the others in the bikini is at his request lol But I think I look ok.....Anyway, I'll get back up on here later when I have more to report.

Phew....its been crazy....but I'm glad it's calmed down and I can sit back and take my class for work in peace. I had a scare on Saturday. I text the doctor about my belly button and sent him pics and we got it all fixed now! And I think it looks better.

So, I have been out and about a few times and WOW the swelling!!!! Almost takes overnight to bring it down. But its decreasing with each day that passes. I have a couple complaints but not many and they aren't big! I am happy to look down and see my FEET!!!!

What do you think?
