My recovery has been great. My pain hasn't been bad, I'm a little sore and I'm sure it because I was leaning on my right side to much.
Let my start with my surgery day. They took me into my room. Got undressed, said bye to my husband. I got an epidural and something else can't remember what it was but I was like an a twilight. When I woke up I couldn't stop throwing up I spent that whole night like that. My husband said i threw up all over him, i wanted to call everyone. i dont recall that. They wouldnt let me get up. i had a Catheter on and something on my legs that compressed to keep the blood circulating. When they removed the Catheter it hurt to peed for a few days but infection! The next day they took me to the hotel. I guess I was still dazed. I was lucky my husband helped me out a lot. I spent that day mostly sleeping. We got room service the food was good. They want you to eat chicken so that's what I did. I changed my dressing cause they were wet from the drainage of the lipo. I had to spend my husband to get me dressing and pads to place on the bed. The lipo is what hurt the most and still hurts :/
A week after my surgery I went back to TJ. I got my drains removed. I was so happy!! I also got the surgical tape removed. They showed my were the surgical cuts and they look good. On my breast very small and thin. On my tummy tuck it also is then thin. I was very pleased.
After my appointment we went to dinner and met a lady their that was a friend of my aunt. We started talking I ended up telling her that I just PS and she asked me who did my work cause she also wants to get implants. I told her Dr Suarez and she said that he is one of the best ones in TJ. It reassured me that I did get surgery done by the best. I'm a happy women.

Hey girly, got picked up from the airport @ 11:30 driver was very friendly. He took me to Dr. Suarez office. It's very clean. Dr. Suarez is a very nice man. I really liked him!! It was a little awkward that I had to completely undress in front of the nurse. I think once you meet dr Suarez you'll start to feel at ease, at least I did. Well I'm going to take a nap and then I'll update you more :)

Wow it happened today. I spoke with Violet because I had to send my labs and she told me you were doing great. She wanted to know how we both knew each other. I am more than excited to see how things went for you! Happy healing!

I doing great today!! Yesterday after I woke up I couldn't stop throwing up and I was completely out of it!! I guess my husband said I won't stop talking and that I wanted to call everyone, I don't remember a thing. I guess I threw up on him to. Lol. The only pain I feel is when I move or walk is on my butt. I feel like I did a few hundred squats. Dr. Suarez did lipo on my lower back only and that does hurt no joke!! No pain from my tummy tuck. I want to take the bandages of but my husband want me to wait.
