Plastic Surgery Wednesday

Hey Everyone!     I need advice...I am having a panniculectomy and brachioplasty on Wednesday. If anyone has any advice it would be most appreciated. What is the recovery like? What kind of clothes do I need to wear? How long do the drains stay in??? I am a nervous wreck!!!  Thanks in advance! Teresa

Teresa, Did you know that there is a ObesityHelp Plastic Surgery messageboard that is quite active...we discuss everything there that is plastic surgery related....complications, vacations afterwards, drains, hematomas, seromas, basic plain ole good advice, etc.  I am recouperating right now from having a LBL on May 10, and have gotten plenty of good advice from this message board.  We give encouragement when we can, we share happy moments, and we share sad moments when someone is experiencing complications.  Give this messageboard a try, and you will get more advice than you could possibly have known...
