Howdy everyone! I am doing pretty well.....the pain meds are keeping me comfy. I had surgery Thursday morning at 8:30 and was done by 11 and home by 3ish......The only thing that really bothered me was the nausea, that I wasn't prepared for. I couldn't really eat or drink much that first day.....everything was much better the second day. I had ny first check-up Friday afternoon and was totally shocked to see myself without bandages......I am flat as a board.....the only thing that sticks up on me now is my rib cage. The swelling is good.....the most swollen part is my crotch The drain isn't bothering me. I was also suprised that I have a belly button still.....I was cut hip to hip and pube bone to breast bone.....Well my hubby set me up on his laptop so I could update...but I am goona head off and relax......Hope everyone is doing well and I want to thank everyone for the well wishes.....with a super big thank you to K-man Thanks again....and I will be back soon!!!! Jesi

Hi there Jesi, How are you? I hope you are OK. Please take care of yourself. Get plenty of rest. Drink plenty of water. Stay in your and let your husband pamper you. I really can't afford any surgery right now. My insurance will cover the LBL , but I am not really going to do anything right now. Keep us posted and ((((((((((( hugs)))))))))))) to you. Lorraine

Wow! I will pray that you are back to normal asap. Great news and very exciting. I HATE nausea. I am glad that is over. God Bless. Allison

Glad to hear you're home safe and sound. How long do you think you'll be laid up? My surgeon hasn't given me any details yet, and I was wondering for work. Are you feeling ok? You're in my thoughts. Get will soon. Nona

Congratulations..........get your rest. Look forward to your updatess. luvitsunnyv

I had my sugery only 7 months ago. I had skin problems even before surgery. Now It's even worse. I'm down 120lbs. Did you insurance cover the surgery? Can you tell the particulars of what things you had to do to get the surgery? I'm very curious. I'm sure once you can move better you will not regret your decision. Tammy Lowery
