Seroma & hematoma issues are under control.
I've learned to accept and manage my swelling. I know what swells me up so I cater my activity to what I have going on the next day.
Hot yoga helped loosen me up.
Black seed oil is life and drives out inflammation.
Glutamine is great for healing/helping muscle repair or that strain worn out muscle feeling.
Lymphatic Massages will change your life! Taimeout is my go to.

Update
The seroma drain wasn't in very long and I'm only dealing with some residual swelling which is annoying but I'm not even two months out so I have no need to be annoyed. My third boob can follow me around for a bit but it's really got to go!
Now that the seroma issue has been fixed everything surrounding my surgery has dulled down a lot. I'm just healing. I went for my first run, I went to a belly dancing workshop. I haven't hit the gym yet because I do feel it when I strain to do stuff like lift something heavyish or shovel the drive way. Something inside is like chill out. I only had about 4 inches of diastasis recti repair so I listen incase something wants to buckle.
I had my first lymphatic massage the yesterday and woke up tiny as ever!!! My new contour garment is useless now and it just arrived 4 days ago. I've shrunken down to the last row of hooks and I'm wearing my binder and Lipo underneath. Compression is my hardest thing right now. I'm literally in two or three all the time.
I created a Sx profile on IG but I prefer realself cause I just get to just dump my whole mindset on here. It's Redesigned_2b_fyne. Add me so I can follow your stories. I find it hard to find relevant info on here Idk what I'm doing wrong as far as filters!!

Seroma & Healing update
The seroma kept reappearing the doc even had me come in twice last week and yet the area still filled with fluid despite the compression.
The doctor brought up my options at my last appointment and I requested the temporary drain placed in the area on Feb 5th. So that's what I dealing with now. I am using the original binder until the drain is removed. Despite the reoccurrence it has shrunk since the first out of four drainage sessions with the Doctor. I feel more bad for him than me, I know he cares and it's his hard work it's gotta weigh on his pride a little. But for me it speak volumes that if something should go wrong he doesn't abandon you. I couldn't imagine what I would do if I had gone out of state or to another country because post care is part of pricing. This is a clear example of getting what you pay for :)!!
As for everything else I am doing so well. This is the time I have been waiting for a basically fully functional but operate at 85% to be safe. I want to run so bad and work out but it's got to wait. My weights gone up because I'm happy and I'm eating. Since the TT was about my aesthetics and shilouette the weight gain is not an issue. The weight will drop once in active again. I swell at times and l look great in the morning which is what most people mention.
Happy, Healthy, and Fully Functional
