4 days post opp
i had a lower body lift and upper thigh lift on Wed. Today was without pain meds all day, jsut feel stretched like a rubber band.
did develop hives which the doctor said is a result of the antibiotics, so he told me to stop taking them. so far very pleased with result. the body is still numb and since my flat stomache doesn't look like its mine, I look in the mirror and think someone has superimposed a stomach over mine. no swelling so far and besides the itching from the hives, I seem to be doing OK. I thought it would be so much worse. drains are still in, but its not as bad as many people have lead me to believe.

Hijack:
I noticed more swelling in my tummy the past 2 days......very weird.....when I had the TT I had NO swelling in my stomach.....now with all the work in the butt and outer thighs I'm puffy in my belly. Weird huh.
I'm hoping it is only because I was on my feet a lot the last 3 days......I hope it goes away soon!!
Hope you get relief too!
