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 Mid-thigh girdle 4 inch waist, black, x-large Style 4 - retails - $95.85

$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!

Liz

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?

Topic: Arm lift post surgery

hello,

immediately following surgery will I need help with showering and using the restroom? The thought of this horrifies me ?

thanks!

Topic: RE: 19 days TT post op issues....

only slight nausea today. went back to work, still super sore tho. I go back to PS tomorrow for another follow up. seroma is still present. hoping if he does another aspiration that he doesnt do that third needle with the alcohol concoction, cuz that hurt really bad. still have a few sutures in, hoping he takes the remaining ones out. sick of wearing this binder...its hot and makes me itch BAD. :(

other than that, im in pretty good spirits:) thank you for asking.
