I'M HOME!!
I had a circumfrential lift, anchor cut and brachioplasty. I did not know that he was doing the anchor but he said that was his plan all along. So after the markings we went in to the OR and I stood in front of 2 people why they hosed me down with another cleaner and on the table I went. With 10 people in the roomand 80's music playing in the backgroung the party was about to be started.
Pre op I had a lovonox shot.
5 hours later I was done.Slept most of night. My hospital night I.V drip was 2 bag of morphine along with antibiotic's I came home with antibiotics and and pain killers.
With the exception of some motion sickness on the car I feel good.
Walking hunched over because I feel like the casing of a sausage.but the arms feel good and I have 7 drains total. 5 in the stomach and one in each arm.
The arms are pain free.
I'm just chillin in my lift recliner with my laptop, coffee, water, crackers and protein drinks.. I feel AWESOME!!!

Ah yes...memories.
Nothing compares to that first glimpse of the privates.
I hadn't seen mine since I was about 10!
