Home from panniculectomy pics posted
Had my procedure Monday morning and came home Wednesday afternoon, ended up staying a day longer than originally planned. Had to get a blood transfusion but feeling better now. Just a bit sore when I get up moving around. Had a shower last night with my hubbys help it felt good to get hair etc washed. I put pics up on my profile of before and after so take a look and let me know what you think. He did the disolvable stitches on the inside and steri strips outside. 2 drains are still in but will see him tomorrow and maybe get one taken out. He thinks I will be really pleased with the results once the swelling minimizes. He pulled up on the mons area and pulled down from the top and moved my belly button up about 4 inches. My insurance didn't pay for that but he did it anyway which is nice.

Well I am not going to sugar coat it, there is pain involved. Just take your pain meds and it will be alright. I am pretty swollen today and will be seeing the doctor this afternoon so I will see what he thinks. I am curious to see if I am still low on blood since after they gave me two units of blood I was still too low. I will update later and will be taking more pictures.
