Lost my arm drain so bummed out I'm doing the happy dance, only leave 3 mons drains left. Dr S pulled two of them out a bit to see if they would drain more and lessen the leaking. It worked. I'm moving a bit faster, not quite a tortise, but not a hare yet. Tom is still in the cheetah category. He just hurries up and waits for me!

My facelift, is starting to hurt less, but the stitches around the eyes are driving me batty is there an emoticon for batty? Nope didn't think so. My ears pinch a bit from the chin binder, but getting better. It's easier to get in and out of my binders.

Tom leaves tomorrow

, me on Wed. But, a really good report! Sunday and all is well in Monterrey!

I hate to be rude, but I am going to be. How much did it cost you? I am looking to have an LBL, breast lift and aug and maybe some more. I wish I was there! I am glad you are starting to hurt less. The batty eye thing sticks in my head lol.

I sent you a PM. No question is to rude. I wasn't sure if I'd need just the lift, but I'm happy with the size I am now.

Hope the itching goes away soon. Sounds like you're getting out and enjoying the city too - the food sounds amazing! Glad the news is good from Monterrey. Be well.

Hi Cindy!
It took me over a week before my appetite came back. Between the compressing garment and no room, it was tough getting in enough protein. Now, I'm adding extra shakes too. The itching isn't too bad except for the eyes, and those stitches come out tomorrow. It's really been an amazing journey. I'm so glad that I came.

Dr S says my main goal is healing right now! That's what I'm working on.

I took benedryl for that early, annoying itching and found it extremely helpful - my plastic surgeon recommended it.

I'm glad to see you're doing so well, but it's a little sad that your OH buddies are leaving you to return to their homes. Are you there by yourself or with family/friends?

Tom left on Monday, so went to the movies by myself, shopping today and leave tomorrow, so not too bad being on my own.

Would you mind PM me the total cost for your procedures as well. I've been lurking for the last year but feel I am ready to seriously look into plastics. I'm over 3 years post-op and maintaining well. I'm interested in a LBL, BL w/aug., thigh lift, possible arm lift and bletharoplasty for my droopy eyelids? I want to compare surgery here in NC vs. Mexico. Thanks bunches!!
