Thank you! I wondered if I was being too optimistic...

Topic: RE: Would you have felt good enough for this?

I couldn't sit for longer than an hour or so at a time until about 6 weeks out. I did two long (12+) hour trips before 4 weeks and we stopped a LOT because of that. I would be concerned your butt will hurt and you won't be able to keep up with the flow if you get out of your chair. I otherwise felt fine.

Personally, I wouldn't have been. I held off scheduling things until the 6 week post-op mark.

Topic: NIP women's compression garments for sale

Hi - I have three compression garments that I purchased before I had my plastic surgery and then had some complications along the incision lines, so I was never able to actually wear these. They are still new, in the package, and I haven't even opened the packages.

$50 - Contour Bra Top w/sleeves black, x-large, style 24B - retails $95.85

$75 - Contour Mid-Calf Bodyshaper with sleeves, black, x-large style 28S - retails $154.30

buyer pays actual priority shipping from 22203 (buy all three and I'll ship them for free!)

Thanks!

Topic: Would you have felt good enough for this?

A friend in MI wants to sign up for a 2-day painting class at a local historic resort. It's 10 to 4, 2-days in a row, probably sitting in folding chairs painting on easels. I will be 5 weeks post lbl and medial thigh lift (top half of thighs only). Do you think I'll feel up to it or be too uncomfortable for something like this?
