It's finally happening....I am getting plastics! I had RNY 9yrs ago, so this is long past due.

Surgery is scheduled for June 24th..I will be having a fluer-de-lis extended abdominoplasty with mons lift, inner thigh liposuction and a vaginal hysterectomy by my OBGYN. Trying to gear myself up for how major of a surgery I am about to undergo...any recommendations, words of advice? I have an extremely low tolerance to pain and a very high tolerance to pain meds....pain meds work for about 20min..then I need more (I have tried Vicodin, Percocet, Diluadud, oxycontin) anyone else experience this?

I waited 10 yrs to get my plastics after RNY. I just had a TT in April and plan to undergo more later this year. It was a lot more painful than I had expected and I had no idea the amount of swelling involved.

I have a low tolerance to pain. My meds would wear off after 3 hrs but they would not give them to me for 4 hrs.
