The physical stuff I forgot...

[melanie626]

Oh, I forgot the physical stuff:

My butt has 2 incisions and a little hole from where the wire came out- they are tender, but the pain meds work well and I have only needed to take a few a day, otherwise tylenol. for me the scar in the middle runs into to my back surgery scar, so that doesn't really phase me. No one sees my butt anyway. (which is a bummer too, LOL).

I was nauseated post op, but I did take meds for that....it is better. Not a big appetite, but I am sure because I am bound up that is why....

My constipation has been the biggest drag. I knew it would be, but did I plan- NO, so now I get to whine aobut it, sorry eek.gif

Overall- I feel more like myself each day (and I am a BIG BABY). I took 6 days off of work and will be fine to return (a little sore and a little tired is all).

Melanie,
Hope you are doing better now! Yes those scars are there, but not a bad trade-off if it works. One thing to note: some people, and I am one always have pain at the site of the implant if it's touched. Mine bulges out of my skin a little. What really helps me is to stick a minipad on my panties right where the implant is. And, I never, never lean against anything where it will touch the implant....too painful for me!! Hope this helps!
