Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I had my drainless TT as an outpatient on Dec 18, and it went well. At 24 hrs PO I was in a lot of pain, however, so I doubled up on the pain meds every other dose which made a big difference. Just sent my hubby back to work since I'm mostly sleeping anyway. Need some coffee before my head pops off. Still all wrapped up in a binder so I can't see much, but the incision is quite low, peeking out beneath the binder. Am taking protein shakes, senekot, pineapple, pears and lots of water, plus Gas-x. No BM yet, but am passing some gas. Can walk around ok, up and down the stairs no problem, only slightly hunched over. Can't seem to get logged into this site from my Playbook, so now I'm downstairs updating on the main house computer. Adding my before photos. Thanks to all you ladies on here whose stories and information has really helped me through this.

So today is day 3 post op , after TT & MR on Dec 18. I feel really good, aside from the perpetual gas pressure that kept me up most of the night. Just back from my post-op check, Dr was amazed at how upright and mobile I am! He said 'I tightened the crap out of your abs, thought you'd be still quite hunched over'. Felt GREAT to have the binder released for a few minutes. Gave up the narcotics this morning and switched to xs Tylenol. Dr thinks the gas is mainly from oral antibiotic changing the the 'flora' in my intestines. Says to take it 3 more days at least. Incision is low, down where my c-section scar was. Lots of glue in my belly button which is nasty to look at because it's mixed with dried blood, but no issues otherwise. Still some swelling, obviously, but happy with what I've seen so far! Now if I could just get the gas under control...
