Glad to hear you are drain free and feeling better.

Be careful about not wearing a binder it can lead to more swelling... I'm using my compression garment daily to keep the swelling down.

Best wishes to you

I need to get something that isn't as invasive. The binder I have has underware attached and it digs into my hips. Tomorrow my mom and I are going to go and find something a little less severe.

I think my surgron is just a control freak and where he is most comfortable is his office--his staff lnows what he wants and how he wants it. In the hospital he doesn't have that control.

Sorry.. I'm a little out of the loop! How far post-op are you??

I had a lot of pain after my LBL and I definitely didn't have any meds strong enough to help. Doctors here wouldn't give me anything stronger than Tylenol 3s :( hopefully your surgeon is nicer!

There are two primary choices in life; to accept conditions as they exist, or accept responsibility for changing them.

OH wow T3 wouldn't do anything for that kind of pain. I am about 6 days out. I had surgery on Sept 30th. He only gives out percocet but you have to be making improvments and healing otherwise hes a jerk.
