on to scar therapy!!!

Met with my PS today. Incision is healing, so on to my scar therapy! No more super sticky tape....Thank god! Per my PS its just a normal swelling and NO seroma!!! I just want to add that for the many times I went to my appointment, my PS is always there for the follow up's and not just a nurse. I appreciate how hands on my PS is. Even though my drive time is longer than my consultation, you will never feel rushed and he takes time to answer all your questions.

tired of swelling

It's been a while since I last updated my profile. Nothing significant has change except less bruising. I am still swollen which is really getting in to me now. I have been reading a lot of reviews and they say it's better in the morning and then gets worst at night. My swelling doesn't seem to be that way. I'm swollen all throughout the day :(
My swelling is mostly between my bb and incision. It's like a pooch sticking out. I have never really seen it flat. I was doing a seroma check but the swelling is not like a water bed when you touch it...so I guess there is no seroma. I am very careful with my body. I even walk still a little hunched and still taking arnica and turmeric. I am wearing my cg regularly with an 2 hrs break just in the morning. I'm doing everything I can think of that will help the swelling down. I also watch what I eat. I'm actually trying o get my appetite back. I'll have my 1 month post op next week, I'm hoping things will be ok.
Is there other ladies here like me? What did you do and how long did it stay like that? I'm just trying to be really positive as much as I could.

Dr Salemy and his staff are the best!!! He was very detailed , and his bedside manner is great. His calm and comforting demeanor has greatly affected me. I am usually super nervous in any kind of surgery ( lap band and c-section) but with this... it was just like a zen of calmness ;) They walk me through the process sooooo well that I'm feeling a lot better even in just a few hours after surgery. Can't wait to see the after result.
