Leaving Tomorrow

I have been researching for about 2 years and I finally leave tomorrow. I originally was looking at Duran but then I noticed all of her dolls were small. I came across Dr Mercedes and decided that he was the one for me. I am 41 years old, 5'3" and 204lbs. I am planning to get TT, BBL and lipo. Dr Mercedes says the I should be able to get all 3 just as long as my hemp is good. I am all packed and my flight leaves at 6am. I will be staying at Serenity Recovery house.

I arrived yesterday as planned. It was a nightmare once I arrived at SDQ. It literally took me 2 hours to get through immigration. They only had 3 counters open for thousands of people. I think all of the flights arrived in at the same time and my wait was 2 hours in line. Some were way longer than 2 hours. Luckily I got in line when I did. Once I made it through, everything was fine. My driver was waiting for me as I exited the ramp with my name on a board and we went to the recovery house. I had to be to Dr Mercedes’ office today at 7am. It is now 12pm and I am waiting to see a pulmonologist. I’ve done my preop testing which included bloodwork, urinalysis, a sonogram of my legs and a chest X-ray. Hopefully I won’t be here too much longer. Dr Mercedes is not in today due to pink eye but his assistant Suzan is very helpful. She said that I will see the doctor tomorrow before my surgery.

What a painful, traumatic experience. I had my surgery on December 17 as planned. I had to arrive at 4:30 am. I waited maybe 15 minutes before being escorted to a room. Dr Mercedes came in and took one before pictures on an IPad. A little while later, an endocrinologist came in to speak to me regarding my diabetes. All of my tests were good and I was cleared for surgery. Dr Mercedes come in an asked me to undress. He started to mark me up and confirmed my procedures. A nurse came in and gave me the blue pill and a few minutes later I was wheeled away. I slightly remember waking up during the lipo procedure on my back but I didn’t feel anything. I later remember waking up in a lot pain. I felt nauseous and I was vomiting. I believe it was around midnight when Dr Mercedes appeared and took me to an ICU unit. Turns out my blood sugar was extremely high and my hemo was extremely low. I was there for 4 days. I had a nurse in the room with me around the clock and I was her only patient. I had to get several blood transfusions. Dr Mercedes checked in on me at least 3-4 times each day. On day 4 I was transferred to a regular room which was the worst experience ever. I had an overnight nurse from the recovery house to stay with me and she was good. The staff nurses were not. I felt like a bother I them and I couldn’t wit to leave. Dr Mercedes came to see me at about 6am and told me that I could go to the recovery house. Everything was stabilized. I just arrived to the recovery house and these ladies have been great so far. I am in a lot of pain from the lipo on my back. The tummy tuck feels fine. I’ll be getting a massage today to relieve one of the fluid which I am told is what’s causing the pain. I’ll update tomorrow.
