Swell hell in hell
NikkifreedomAugust 10, 2014
Where do I start.
My legs and ankles have been swollen for two days. I can barely walk. And when I put my feet up all the water goes to my tummy. So I'm screwed either way. . I have been to the doctor but he doesn't seem to get my concern.
Yesterday it got so bad I was throwing up everywhere. I tried to explain is not the medicine. It's the unbearable muscle spasms. It's like a Charlie horse punches me in the stomach everytime I eat or drink.
And then the swelling in my tummy is nuts. Since I woke up in four inches wider than I was before surgery.

After my BA in 2012 I was swollen so terribly bad like you. Every time I moved or adjusted it seemed as if I would swell somewhere else. Finally after about three weeks the sweeling went down. Happy healing and stay positive. You look great. You paid a great price also.

have you talked to your dr about Wearing a compression garment I meant I haven't heard you speak about that and it may be helpful. also make sure you're staying well hydrated

He told me to not wear it as much. I'm going to order a abdominal board tomorrow to wear with my hinder. I made a home made one at home with a new large sponge today.

Congrats! yes the abdominal board is the truth.. The best $20 investment I made than spending hundreds of dollars on garments.

I'm swollen from the surgery. But I'm able to get around a lot better today and do some stuff on my own. The doctor informed me that my muscles were really really bad. So he had to do sutures on the sides as well as from my breast bone all the way down to my pubic area. So that's hurting the most out of anything.the pain meds aren't working exactly the way that I would like him to but I have a high tolerance. I'm going to try to get some sleep tonight because it's been hard sleeping sitting up.
