I'm David. I am a new grad RN. Sooo excited. I had my surgery 1 week ago. I am starting to apply for jobs, since I still have 5 weeks off of work. I am hoping for an ER/ICU new grad job.

Diana, Good luck with your TT. I am looking forward to having mine done next yr no matter is insurance pays for it or we do. I hope you have a speedy recovery. I know my friends that have had them do well. I have been told by then the worst is with the arms and thighs. That they can be very painful and have a slower recovery time.
Best Wishes
Mariah

I will be having my insurance approved tummy tuck done on July 13th!
I am so excited. I was approved back in October of last year and was never able to find time away from work to get it done and recouperate. No I will and then in two weeks I will be heading on vacation to Las Vegas.
If there's anyone out there who has had the tummy tuck, write to me. I was wondering how long until I feel better.

Thanks for all the congrats and well wishes. I survived the classes and pre-op testing this week. I didnt hear that anything was abnormal yet so I hoping all went well. I have about 11 days left. Im so excited.
Hope you all are doing well. I only have 7 more nights to work and them Im taking 6 weeks off unless I get to bored. I thought I would take advantage of the summer off and spend it with family in the pool.
I hope u are all doing well.

Hi Dee
I check in every once in a while. I'm a RN in a correctional facility right now, but have a background in L&D, Med-Surg and geriatrics. I'm about 1 month post op. I'm hoping to go back to the hospital after I get some weight off
.
I'm kinda happy to go back to work because I finaly get the am shift after having to file a grievance.
