No clots after band surgery.... And had surgery yesterday for tt and breast lift and so far no problems. But I have been out of bed every hour for at least ten minutes walking around the house....the dr said that's the best preventative medicine.

Yep I got a clot in my leg. I later found out I have a clotting gene called factor 5 Leiden that means I clog easier though. My clot showed up a week after surgery.

you may or may not have to get this shot. i guess i got it bc of my size but i really have no idea. its a wee wee needle and couldnt feel it at all...getting your ear pierced was worse or breaking a nail for realz. so dont spazz over things that havent happened yet (or may never happen). wont help anything...hang in there :)
