I have also posted in the tummy tuck group and haven't had much luck. I am one week and a day post op my tummy tuck and breast augment. My tummy tuck is doing great! I did not have muscle repair since I already have a flat stomach. I would say that I wouldn't need any paid meds if it wasnt for my breasts. But, everything I have read online has said that you could be going back to work after 5 days????
My breasts are so still so extremely swollen they feel like they are going to pop. My left a little more then my right. I did not go huge either. Like I said, i breast feed two kids and had plenty of room for implants. I only got 300 CC saline's under the muscle.
I am really starting to get discouraged and depressed. I have to take perk every 4 hours still and cant even sleep I am in so much pain. The swelling is much worse at night.
Any ideas or words of wisdom? Is there any ointments or creams I could use to decrease the swelling? I am dying here! My doctor says this is all normal and that there can be pain and swelling for 6 weeks!? I figured some, but this much!?

I guess it's about time I post some pics..
FINALLY!
Well, again I did not sleep hardly at all last night.... but at least it was better than the night before. The difference was this morning I woke up feeling like I have yet to feel at all since this surgery. HAPPY! My breasts were still very sore and swollen, but not as bad as previous mornings. After a shower and a good breast massage they started feeling better. They have continued to be more of a discomfort throughout the day than a complete agony. This is the first day since surgery that I have not had to take a nap or have gotten exhausted from simple tasks. The only downfall is that I have been very nauseous. I'm thinking its because all the fluid is making its way through my metabolism? Thats my only guess. I am trying to drink lots of extra water in hopes of flushing it quicker if thats the case.
Hoping for sleep tonight!
