Well I'm almost 3 months out and I'm still struggling to feel good. This surgery has really set me back. Still packing wounds, still have a seroma and still worn out. My hubby comes home in a little over a week from Afghanistan...I'm not healed and feel like crap. Not exactly what I expected. If I had to do it again, don't think I would do the tummy tuck part.

I'm now 2.5 months out. Went to surgeon today for another followup. I still have two open wounds from necrosis. Had a stitch spit halfway out in the big wound. Gotta go next week for another ultrasound and to have my seroma on top of the wound drained. Then a month later, go back in for a revision because the big wound is going to come out with too hard of scar tissue. Questioning still if I made a wrong choice on having it done. Sometimes things just don't go the way you want them to. Talk to me in 6 months and hopefully I will be happy! On a good note, the hooters are nice! Thought I'd be a 36C, but ended up with a 36D once they fluffed! Happy healing to everyone...will report back in a month or so.

Wasn't feeling well today. Should have known something was up. Took out my gauze dressings for my necrosis spots and bam...a gusher! Yellow fluid everywhere. I had to get a towel to get it to stop. I can't tell you how frustrated and depressed I am. I know it could be worse, but dang blast it I'm tired of feeling like crap. Wish my husband was here, spent half the day just sobbing. Not only is my seroma draining, my emotions are drained too. If I had one piece of advice for ladies considering this, make sure you have a great support system! Love to all!
