I'm not too nervous, although I probably should be! Two months ago I had circumferential lift and lipo on inner thighs so I feel like the worst may be over. Hopefully! I had a few questions
-can you use the bathroom independently?
- its summer and I want to wear sleeveless, how long are garments required? Should I get wearing sleeveless out my mind?!!
-how long until you could drive

My brachioplasty was done on 05/02/2012. 

Yes, I was able to use the bathroom.  Took some adjusting to clean myself.  I am right handed and had swelling in that arm.  Learned to use my left hand.

I was able to drive after two weeks.  My only suggestion would be try to use parking spaces where you can pull in/out, instead of doing a lot of wheel turning.

Good luck!
