2cd Day Post op

Sooo much pain...but was able to take a shower felt so good. BF was able to help wash my hair and everything else. All I did today was sleep most of the time and eat crackers and pineapple

1st day post op!

Ok 1st. Day post op I don't think anyone in the world can really mentally prepare for the pain after surgery. We all know it's going to be painful and we all can get our painpills set up in a row, but ???? the pain is insane. I just keep telling myself give it 4 days after surgery and I'll be fine! Over and over again. I stopped taking the oxy the night before got tired of throwing up, but went ahead and took it before I left for my follow up appt. knowing I was going to have to walk further than usual. All I've been doing is walking to the toilet and back when I need to. I've been sleeping in a chair in the room. The bed is too high for me to get on and off of it. We take Uber to my appt. didn't throw up in the way but sure did throw up on the way back. Told the nurses during my appt I couldn't keep anything down. She also told me to just stop taking oxy and only do Tylenol. I had to wait about 20 min in the lobby due to it being so packed. So I called back my pads around my boobs were changed out but the tape itself over my breast and tummy tuck were not touched. I was told to take a shower the next day and I have another appt. Monday at 9 to remove the drains from the sides of my boobs...didn't know I had anything there but there was they just didn't have the bulbs like my pubic area does. I've been drinking water and pineapple juice and eat fruit here and there.

Surgery done!!! ????

Ok so review of my surgery!...I went in on the 26th Wednesday at 9 am a girl was their already waiting. They took her back not too long after I got their so I thought it would be a while before they got me back!...negative it wasn't even an hour when I was rushed to the back to change my BF wasn't allowed to go with me. So after I was changed I was sent to a waiting room for the dr. To come in. Ok so I went through Imagenes and their clinic is so much prettier and nicer than their surgical center in another building. So while I was waiting for the Dr. I was like WTF!!!???????? I'm starting to really feel like I'm in a chop shop! That didn't last too long!...Dr came in started marking me up. The day before I had told my coordinator the breast I was wanting and the size I was looking at so when he came in he knew what I wanted already and told me the complications that came along with it due to the lift. IF you aren't going to meet your doctor until the day of surgery make sure you coordinator knows what you are wanting and expecting as far as implant goes. The Dr. Brings the implants with him the day of surgery they aren't at the surgery site already! So going back to Dr. Marking me up he is so damn fine in person! Haha! And then his anesthesiologist came in and we started cutting up. He is so damn fine too! ???????????????? so while I'm talking to both of them the nurses are cleaning up the surgery room already done with that girl before me which I thought was insanely crazy! So they moved me once it was cleaned started hooking me up Dr. Alvarez was helping the fine anesthesiologist with the blood pressure cuff and then I was told to calm down! Haha! I was like why? I feel good! He said you blood pressure doesn't say so! Haha! Dr put oxygen mask on me and told me to take deep breaths at this time I looked at the clock it was about 10:15 2 deep breaths and I was out. Woke up in another waiting room where the girl before me was throwing up sitting in a recliner. Another girl beside me who went in after me was laying there. They both had their BFs with them so I asked for mine from the nurse and it seemed like she was doing everything else but getting him, so I asked one of the other girls BF to please go get mine which he kindly did and so forever grateful. Anyway I was the last one to leave. Language barrier was a little hard my BF and I are Hispanic but we don't know any kind of Spanish! Anyway the nurse told us to go back tomorrow for a follow up appt between 9-2 next day day. Due to the anastecia still in my body that night I felt good and pain was minimal. I would take Oxycodein when I felt pain but it made me sick every time it was horrible having to throw up and using your stomach muscles to do so.
