Lower Body Lift and Extended Arm Lift - San Antonio, TX

I had my 4 month appointment with Dr. Peter Fisher yesterday and it went well. My incisions are buetamus becasue he is an artist and i was meticulous in caring for them. Vitamin E, coconut oil, Vitamin E, Coconut Oil.. repeat so many times a day i cant count. :) Also, i am stuck on repeat, those compression garments are not joke. I am still very numb in my rump and tummy. Aching has slowed down but I am still getting nerve pain due to the reconnecting. I took pictures yesterday but i forgot to get them to post. I will make a separate post with the pics.
I am still up about 10 pounds of swelling but i feel better about it going down slowly but surely. Tummy is swells a little bit but otherwise it is flat as a pancake.
I know i brag about Dr. Fisher a lot but i promise he is the most caring doctor i have ever met.
Any questions please dm me and i will happily ask. i think i am behind a couple of answers but i will get on those now. Pics to follow. xoxoox

Hi everyone... I saw Dr. Fisher on Friday and he said my Incesions looked fantastic which is great news. I should have started wearing my compression sleeves and full length compression tights, I got online at image 4 you, weeks sooner dang it. That is my advice. Go get measured.for compression sleeves asap and wear them. Also get full length 1st stage compression tights straight away. They only help I promise. I am back up and 18 pounds of water after 2 rounds of lasix. Dr. F. Didn't seem concerned so I will let it be. My butt is still so terribly numb but it is still so much better than a few weeks ago. I started back to the gym and went on a 90 min hike. I am back to.sleeping in the bed about 5 hours a night. This numb butt keeps me up. My belly button is healing but is really hard. Curious.
I have had 2 rounds of lymphatic massage with Cat at Oak Haven. She is fantastic. My lower back seems less hard with water but I am not sure.
Any questions please ask.
Happy Thanksgiving!!

6 weeks is almost here. I am down to one pound from post surgery weight so looks like the compression garments and Lasix worked ... thank the Jesus. I still have swelling but not as much. The "swampy" spot on my lower back is still there but much better. I was comparing pics from the first week of my bootie to today.. No wonder I couldn't get comfy and it ached so badly. It was giant.
I am super happy with my incisions and so was Dr. Fisher on the last visit. That is another huge blessing that I am so happy to have. I cleaned and put antibiotic on them twice a day I was so nervous. My belly button is still healing but Dr. F said that would take a bit longer. Looking at some of the openings on this website put me in a panic.
I am using the arnica gel and arnica tablets to also help with swelling. I ordered the tablets on the internet and got the gel at CVS.
I am in shock about my arms, they are so much smaller to me and they are still swollen. I transitioned from the chair to the couch then to the bed last night. It was still achy but so happy to be in the bed. The days are ok but the nights I still experience nerve pain in my legs and stomach. It gets better everyday but I have to sleep to function at work. It will get better soon but I want it better now. :) I attached some pics that my hubby took today. I hope everyone has a fantastic week.
