Exactly 3 weeks PO

Today I am exactly 3 weeks post op! I am feeling good.. not GREAT, But very good! I no longer feeling pain or discomfort, however I still cannot stand 100% straight. I don't know if it's because I "can't" or I'm just mentally afraid to? I returned to work and have been lasting all day considering my job requires mostly standing and walking. I can also drive just fine although I still use a pillow cushion for comfort and I also still sleep in a recliner just because it's easier for me to get up and out. In the beginning of my journey, I thought the pain would never end, and now I'm feeling fine! Every single day gets better.
I am happy with my result as well. I see my doctor Tomm so I hope he OKAYS me to use scar treatment, my wounds seem to have closed but I am no expert and will just wait for my doctor's advice. I see him Tomm so fingers crossed. My scars are getting dark.. I hope what I've been reading is accurate where it gets dark before it gets better!

Completely in love so far!!!

Scabs are starting to come off. I have my next appt with doctor Wednesday! Let's see if I can start scar treatment :) I was also started in a size SMALL in the Merena compression garments. I think it's time to safely size down to an EXTRA SMALL!!!
Loooooooove my results so far!
