Day of Operation- upper lower abdomen and love handles
Today was the day! Dr. Marciano was amazing, she explained everything and I had a good experience overall. I went in to the office at around 10am and was taken to the operating room at around 11. I was given some pain meds and a shot first. Then the operation began. The first part was thin needles to numb the skin, which felt like minor stings. The second part was to fill my tummy with fluid, this was ok. The third part was the break up of fat, this was somewhat painful in the love handle and lower back area. The fourth part was the suction of fat, this was also somewhat painful in the love handle and lower back area. Finally, a smaller laser was inserted and this was not so bad. I was in the op room for about 2 hrs. The nurse covered my incisions and they helped me put on my garment. I went home and the meds had me a bit groggy and dizzy. As soon as I got home around 3pm I went to sleep for about 3 hrs. I woke up and had some chicken broth and tea. Took my arnica pills, I bought at the doctors office and now I’m resting in a sitting position. I went to the bathroom and my mom noticed I was leaking, but the nurse said that leaking can occur in the beginning. Now I have a dark towel and pads under me. As far as pain, I feel quite sore in my abdomen, from 1 to 10, I would say 6. I bought Tylenol to take for the pain. I need to wear the garment for 24 hrs and shower tomorrow. I will update with pics tomorrow.
