All my profile posts are gone since APril - HELP!
It seems that all my profile postings I've done since April are gone! My history shows an error message also. If you have viewed my profile lately and it is saved in your history, can you PLEASE copy it and email it to me? A ton of things have happened and I want to keep journaling as I go along. Thanks a ton!
Hi Priscilla! Thanks for asking! I'm doing so incredibly well! I went in to surgery at 9:15 am last Thursday, and walked out at 4:30 pm same day. We went to a hotel and drove the hour home the next morning. The nurses kept asking how my pain was and All I kept saying was "2 on a 1-10 scale". Seriously, I had more pain with my hysterectomy! Dr. Chua also took care of 2 hernias I had. I saw him again yesterday and he took one drain out, so I still have one. My thick padding is gone and i just have the binder. I had no stitches, just steri-strips holding me together, but he did find a small place on my back that he decided to stitch, just in case. The binder, as comfortable as it makes me feel, can also be a bit uncomfortable when it rubs on those strips, but nothing felt as good as my first shower today! All in all, I am very satisfied with what he did. I have no regrets, even after seeing the cutting lines. He said those would fade away to almost nothing, so I'm not worried. As soon as I get another digital camera (mine was stolen 2 weeks ago) I'll take some pic's and post them in my profile. Thanks again for asking!
Hi Lois, I just checked out your profile and you look so much younger now after weightloss. My daughter Anne (age 23) had surgery last year and started out at 310 lbs (close to yours) and is now in the high 160's. She is looking into having what you had as far as plastic surgery with Dr. King the first of Nov. I hope she does as good as you have done!!! We have her first consultation next friday and find out how much all of this is going to cost. She will need her boobs and arms done at a later time. If you don't mind, could you tell me about how much the first round cost? We will also find out if she will be steri-striped . That is kind of scary knowing that is all that is holding you together!! So glad to hear that you are feeling so good. Priscilla
