13 days post op / new compression garmet / / bra band swell

I have found that the flexees from Walmart work the best. I purchased the waist and cami($16). I am getting more of the cami's! I also purchased a spanx ($45). I will be returning it as it seems to thick. I need new panties and pants, my current ones are falling off of me.
Did anyone else swell in their bra band area??? I am having to take off my bra by noon bc it gets so tight.

12 days Post Op - incision ?

This recovery is depressing to say the least. I am so used to being able to do things, and I just can't right now. It is very frustrating. I know it is early in the recovery period, but I am seriously sad about not being able to even take the clothes out to the dryer.

1. I still have a huge upper belly. It looks weird. ( see photo)
2. Incision tape is starting to peel off and it has an odor, but no sign of infection.
3. I found an area on my incision that is just slightly separated.
4. I go Thursday to remove my bb stitches

My skin especially the belly area is very dry, is there anything I can rub on it? lotions?

I dislike this binder

I have decided to take off the binder and stand up straight. I did it and it felt so good. I mean, I think this binder is hindering my ability to stand straighter. Now mind you, I am just standing typing this, not pulling weeds or anything. It feels so freeing.

I am still having some weird thoughts about my upper abdomin being so puffy..

I have been also have some anxiety at night due to not being able to take a deep breath (from swelling?). I am going to try to take a xanax in stead of the percocet for this tonight. Yes, i used a percocet last night to curb the anxiety about breathing. Wish me luck!
