Re: Shalee's October Overhaul

Hi Everyone. Sorry I haven't been on lately. I went to the Drs on wednesday, he took out my belly button stapels and a few stitches. He has us doing a new treatment on my incisions where they have opened up and also on the one that looks like it about to open up, Wet to Dry dressings twice a day. He seems to think this will help with the closing of the one hole I have, Me I am not so optimestic, it actually scares the hell out of me, So I am still on bed/recliner rest with no showers yet, Boo Hoo, I want a shower! Hubby is great with me and washes my hair for me and helps me sponge bath as well as change my dressings for me.
I do like the flatness of the tummy and WOW the mons lift sure made a huge difference down there, looks normal again!! hehehehe I can't ever remember my tummy being this flat.

The breasts are starting to settle into place also which is nice, they have really never given me any pain at all, just a little swelling, I guess with the pain and issues of the tummy tuck I just never noticed any pain from them which is good. The scale still says 170-171, I thought it would go up becasue of all the laying around and no exercise, but is hasnt. I am on a super high protein diet to help promote healing. Dr says he might have to go in eventually and do a skin graft on part of it. I am like Uhmmmm we'll see I dont want any more surgery ever. But I do want this issue to be fixed in the end.

So thats my update, I am feeeling human again and energy level is up, I did go back to the stronger pain pills, but so far they aren't making me sick to my tummy.

Thanks for all the prayers and thoughts, keep em coming
