I am over a month out and feel much better. I am ready to be done with the board but I am moving better and can now pick up things I’ve dropped, sleep on my sides comfortably, etc.
I got steroid shots last week and had my third lymphatic massage today. Feeling better every day.
I’ve also been measuring and am pleasantly surprised constantly.

Holy S**t

I took photos today and I look amazing! I know I have a long road of swelling ahead but almost two weeks in, I feel almost normal. I haven’t taken any medication for pain (including Tylenol) in days and a lot of my soreness is gone. I’m moving normally and showering on my own. Very happy with results already.

Do you like your results? Was it painful?

I love my results and recently went back for my thighs and knees. Round one was very painful for awhile but my knees and my thighs were very easy. I'm 3 days out from surgery and was able to clean, do laundry, and go to work without any trouble. I've heard general anesthesia can affect how you feel. I had local anesthesia this time and had a great experience. Good luck! Feel free to keep asking any questions.

One Week Down

Hjc9
I am very swollen (know that is to be expected). My lower back has been hurting but a search through the app tells me it’s normal. I stopped taking all pain pills other than Tylenol a few days ago and my nausea is gone.
I was surprised by how hard it is to get dressed with the board. It sticks out all of my pants so dresses will be my best friend for the next month or so (once I figure out how to shave my legs—haha!).
Very ready to start feeling like myself again. I had read a lot of reviews but wasn’t expecting to feel quite like this.
