2 week mark

Today marks 2 weeks since my surgery. On the whole I'm getting around very well and I feel mostly normal. There are still two primary areas that hurt still. Extreme Breast sensitivity and my hips. The ways the scars fall and the fact that Dr. Telepun lipos just that area to make sure your scars will lay flat means some serious bruising. I would imagine that people who have lipo AND tummy tuck at the time are in significantly more pain than I have been.

I still cant sleep in a bed, so I've been in a recliner for two weeks and quite honestly I'm sick to death of it I keep trying to sleep in the bed but I cant sleep on my side because my hips hurt SO bad from the lipo/scar and I cant sleep on my stomach because... duh, and then I can't sleep on my back flat without putting my knees up because my stomach is still so tight and if makes me feel like my scar is pulling. So I'm really glad my husband thought to put the recliner up here or I'd be in some pretty bad pain.

I've noticed that my legs are hurting. Like they're sore maybe? They mostly bother me when I'm trying to go to sleep, but this is a problem I had before the surgery.

In regards to my red mark I posted about two days ago. I took the rest of the antibiotic and haven't removed my waist binder and it is going down significantly. There's just a tiny spot of red remaining. Dr. Telepun had told me I could quit my antibiotic and I still had about 10 pills left, so when something looked a bit like infection I started right back to taking them. I'm not sure if it was the antibiotic or the binder increasing circulation again, but its going down. I have a check up on Wednesday, so I guess I will find out about it then.

All in all I'd say I'm very happy with the results. Every time I look at my stomach I still can't believe that it is ME. I'm 2 weeks in, still in pain, and I can already say 100% worth it!
