Update on Jo!

Maybe not just doped up on meds...but in the medical profession, too....drains and a bikini made me smile!

Continue resting!

Glad everything went well!!  And thank goodness for those meds! haha

Whoo Hoo !!! I smiled at the bikini and belly button piercing too. Way to go Jo. Take it easy and heal up.

Thanks all. Johnny surprised me by bringing home a brand new recliner this morning. It has been a god send.

the house is completely empty right now. My mom is stopping by in a few minutes and after that, I am sleeping!

I am hanging in there. the pain meds seem to be wearing off quicker than I am able to take them, so trying to jump that hurdle. Well not literally.

this garment is driving me nuts and I feel icky. But no shower allowed until monday night. Then I can check out the belly. I can't wait!

thanks to everyone for your well wishes. It's a bit of a rough recovery but I know it will be well worth it in the end.

He took about 5 lbs from me when combining the skin and lipo fat so that is exciting.

I hope to take a few pics once the bandage comes off, So for those of you that are squimish, I will probably only have them on my profile.

Hope that you got to rest today in a kid-less house!

I was taking 1/2 of the pain pills 1/2 as often after my gall bladder - since we process them differently. Maybe give that a try?

Jo, those garments suck . . .  I'm 3 weeks out and have 3 more weeks of garments.  I was at the cooking class today and kept having to explain that the garment/scars were itching me and I wasn't just enjoying feeling myself up. lol
 

Hi Jo,
hope u r feeling better, after your drains sre removed ask your D. if u can go to a regular compression garment they are more comfortable, I bought my garments from www,marenagroup.com   and it is very comfortable the garment is much nicer under your clothes. the garment actually keeps the swelling down and helps your new skin to adhere better to muscle  for a better look so the longer u can wear it the better I ahve een wearing one for over a year now cause first i had the TT then 6 months later I had the butt, then I just had some lipo done, so I will be wearing one probably till May, but it is so comfortable I don't even know I m wearing it
