I thought about a second one as well so the other can be washed. I know there are various websites for them. I would also imagine that any pharmacy that sells medicial/surgical supplies would have them.   I see my surgeon Friday and this is one of my questions.  I'll let you know he says.

I have also heard that the binder can bother your skin so I purchased a pack of men's tank undershirts to wear underneath it.  I got a medium and it is form fitting which I  think will be good.

I'll be in touch,

My surgeon gave me the www,designveronique.com garments!  I loved the and I actually wore them for several months because my tummy felt strange without them  Then I weaned myself to only wearing them when I worked out.

Thanks for giving me feedback. How do you know what size to buy? You want them kind of snug don't you?

Thanks Julie

the designveronique website gives you some guidelines for sizing.  I went with what they said and I bought an extra large.  It was very snug, but that is what I wanted.  I got the ones that hooked and zipped up the side.  you don't want to be pulling and tugging on something over your incisions.  My doctor gave us 2 of each that we needed.  I bought 2 more because I wanted to not have to wash everyday.  While I was in Mexico, I washed one and wore one.  It was fine.

Talk to your doc about the garment.  My PS gave me two.  They  are the clear point medical above the knee girdle style 340. They are comfortable and with the open crotch you can use the bathroom with it on.  Not exactly VS but they do the job!     If your doc gives you 2 you may not need to buy another.  I am going to wear mine all day for 2 weeks then I am going to see how it goes after that.  My Surgeon said 2 weeks then I could try spanx like products if they kept the swelling down.
