Ugh, I survived..

Ok so 5 days later I am still alive.  I had my surgeries on Friday and it too****il today to feel coherent and functional enough to even get online.  I expected alot of pain, but the lack of mobility is so frustrating!  I knew I was getting myself into a pinch when I touched lower and upper at the same time.  I had my BA, extended TT, and thigh lift done all together.  The thighs are the final straw!  It makes it hard to adjust or shift positions because you can't lift with your arms from the boobs, and the legs are so tender from the thighs up (he did lipo as well).  And OMG the incisions around the thighs are tender!

Now that I have complained enough...just needed to vent a sec.  Things seems to look as they should, and when I get the drain out I expect to feel better.  Should be Monday I think.  In the last year I have had 3 major surgeries and this has definately been the hardest to recover from.  But I am hanging in there and keeping my eye on the prize!

Thanks for listening!

WOW I could not imagine doing all of that at once...I just had the thighs done on 6/17.  But you have a great attitude, so keep up the positiveness, increase your protein, and move as much as possible.

Gosh you really did a lot at once!  I'm just a week out from a BL and LBL w/butt auto aug and lipo, so yes I understand the immobility.   I can't imagine having the thighs done at the same time.  I hope you are over the worst of it and things will improve little by little.  Keep us posted!
