BandMomsRock 0 Posted June 15, 2010 (edited) Can't believe that it's all done. I thought for sure I was going to chicken out. My hubby was so supportive though and helped me calm my nerves. He was a great nurse for me in the hospital, too. :thumbup: Only 3 incisions were made and I didn't have to have a drain tube.

Do you know why the doctor was able to do the surgery on three cuts only? I would like to request that my doctor try that with me and I have an appointment Thursday with him. Any information about it will be greatly appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have 5... and had a drain in there which was taken out before I left. But i think they'll heal with virtually no scarring so not too worried about them. (Plus they'll add character to my 6 pack in a years time!!! :lol0:) Take it slow... and I promise it gets better every day. Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eriadne 6 Posted June 16, 2010 I'm so glad your surgery went well BandMomsRock! 3 incisions only? That's cool! I have 6, and didn't get a drain either. Glad your hubby is so supportive and helpful, mine is too and I know I couldn't have done this without him. Yay for wonderful husbands :blushing: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

laurel80 2 Posted June 18, 2010 I'm a little jealous. My drain was horrible, it really hurt! As soon as I got it out I had little to no pain from then on. I have 6 incisions! I'm a little over 2 weeks out and they are pretty much healed so...no big deal glad you are doing well. Take it slow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
