So happy for you!   I just had both legs drained yesterday.  Seroma...350 cc's in one leg!!  Talk about miserable.   They are wrapped now and I am taking it easy.  Hoping next week is better. 

I over did it..I know I did.  Now I will pay the price.  :-(

You gotta take it easy post-op.  Our recovery is left up to us..........get lots and I mean lots of rest (not sleeping all day but laying down and elevating the areas that were cut), and plenty of protein....protein rebuilds cells and helps us heal.

Because I walked for 2 hrs yesterday doing shopping (more than I planned), I am laying low today and keeping the legs up as much as I can.

Feel better!!

Thank you hun.   Ya..I have my Unjury..going to get more strict with it.  After all the surgeries I have been through..this was not the one to get lazy.   I think I just take for granted my healing.   I am doing the Avon 2 day walk in May....thinking this year will be 26 miles instead of 39 but my goal is to heal and be there!
