Hi all!

My thigh lift recovery continues to have lots of ups and downs.  I felt like I had turned a corner the last few days. I had lots more energy and got things done around the house. Then today I feel exhausted. I’m having a lot of pain in my left thigh.  It definitely reminds me I’m still recovering. The thighs are a tough surgery, tougher than I was prepared for.  

Hi All! I am new to this site. It is my first time to write anything but stalked others during the first days of my recovery.  I had a Thigh lift, mons lift, hip excision and Lipo done January 10th.  Previously I had a Breast reduction, panniculectomy, chin Lipo and stomach Lipo.

The thighs have been by far the most difficult.  I stayed 3 nights in the hospital because I live by myself and don’t have a lot of help.  With my other surgeries I was only on the prescription pain meds for 2 days. I am still on them with the thighs. I’m sleeping a lot and still in a lot of pain. The toilet is by far the worst thing for me. So much so that I put off going as long as possible. I do have a toilet seat riser which is a must for anyone have this surgery. I can already tell that my results are going to be great but I still have little regrets in my mind. 

I hope that that by the end of this all those will be gone. It is truly a tough recovery for anyone thinking about have this surgery but they always say great risk great reward!
