I posted on here yesterday how I was having flu like symptoms and had a low grade fever. Really bad throbbing pain along my incision which I told my surgeon. But my concerns were ignored until I developed that fever yesterday.

I was prescribed antibiotics which I took today. Both doses. It’s every 12 hours.

Well today, before bed I noticed my vaginal area was red and swollen and that freaked me out so I took myself to the ER despite my PA telling me to not go yesterday. I’m actually scared.

The emergency room doctor said I may possibly have sepsis or cellulitis.

I was about to go on vacation for 8 days my doctor cleared me to go…

Now I may have to be admitted…

Guys, I do not feel well wish me luck. I feel like breaking down mentally. I thought everything was good… my surgeon told me everything looked great… that all changed in a matter of two days. So frustrated so anxious…

Went to see my plastic surgeon today.

Last night I was experiencing horrible pain across my entire incision. It felt like a throbbing stabbing pain. Then when I woke up today I noticed my fluid output spiked to almost 30 ML. When I was draining 12.5 this entire week.

Surgeon said everything looks fine and to keep compression but I do not feel good at all.

I’m still experiencing pain along my incision especially where the drain is. I feel physically sick and very very tired.

Has this happened to anyone? Could this be the start of an infection?

Doctor cleared me but I honestly do not feel good at all. No fever, just a lot of fatigue, and a lot of pain. Everytime I get up the pain gets worse and feels like my incision is going to open up. And I feel like I have the flu.

I had a tummy tuck, with hernia repair, and muscle repair.

? Taking away custody from my mother?

At 14 I found out I was pregnant. It wasn’t a planned pregnancy and in fact my mother forced me to keep my son by making threats saying she would put me in foster care if I try to abort.

I had my baby at 15.

My mom took care of my child when I was younger. She told me to give her full custody so I don’t have to worry about the father taking my kid away. So I did just that not knowing what I was even doing. Even though my son’s father is not involved and is an absent father.

She took care of my son while I was a child trying to finish highschool. I also had lots of problems (undiagnosed bipolar at the time) and was also in and out of the psychiatric. As any teenager would act when something traumatic happened to them.

My mom really never followed through with the after care and I was never taken to therapy or given my medications when I was younger. When I severely needed it. It’s like she wanted to keep me crazy so I don’t get my son back. She would purposely start arguments with me and trigger me so bad to the point where I would just leave for days on end. As a teenager I felt like the world was against me and it was. I had no support from my mom and my father was never involved in my life.
Over the years I matured enough to get myself into therapy, move out of my mother’s house and basically start a whole new life on my own. I would get my son 3 days out the week and she’ll keep him for the rest.

I’m an adult now, my son is 12 years old. We have been sharing split custody for way too long now. I don’t want to just be the weekend parent. I have a home and a bedroom for him. I want him to live with me full time now. I would argue that he needs therapy, he can’t be left alone for long stretches of time, and that she can’t withhold his documents from me because I also have the right. She also smokes cigarettes in her home which I’m highly highly against. But can’t do anything when I’m not physically there with my son. I avoid my mother to prevent arguments. Only time I see her is when I pick my son up.

she would ignore me time and time again. I gave her multiple chances to make things right but she Never took me serious and would always say go to court.

So that’s what I did yesterday.

I went to court to file for full custody. I wrote on the paper that she leaves him alone while she goes to work (happened on multiple occasions, we argued about it. Never got solved)

How for some odd reason she won’t follow through with his therapy appointments. And how she’s withholding his documents from me. So I can’t apply for extra help with the state.

Basically I’m asking if I’m wrong for filing these papers? Some part of me feels really bad because she’s very attached to my son. But on the other hand he’s MY SON. And deserves to live with his mother… can’t help but still feel like I did something wrong. I just feel like she has an unhealthy attachment to my son, and she benefits from the state getting the tax child credit, section 8 benefits and insurance benefits. And that’s why I feel bad I don’t want to f\*ck her over but I don’t feel like my son living with her is healthy for either of them….

She has been a narcissist her entire life and now that I’m taking her power away she’s threatening to move far away and never speak to my son or me again. Making my son feel bad. So she can manipulate him to stay with her. She’ll also say that she’s gonna smoke cigarettes till she dies which scares my son so bad… I just feel conflicted right now. Part of me feels bad but the other part of me knows what she’s doing is wrong

I see they’re selling out fast, if they do by chance sell out would we be able to buy tickets at the event?

Is this normal? I’m getting a little frustrated because my doctor wasn’t in today it was the PA.

I have one drain in, and for a week it’s been draining less than 30cc

But they still want to keep the drain in for another week.. is this normal?

I’ve had my drain in for 3 weeks already

I’m 2 days post op I’m taking miralax and eating small amount of food throughout the day.

My question is when did you guys finally poop? I’m kind of scared of being constipated because I get reallllly bad stomach pains when I do.

When did you guys have your first poop after surgery? And should I be concerned if it surpasses 3 days?

Does anyone else get super emotional? I’m about to get rid of the thing that caused me mental anguish for the last 12 years of my life…. It feels emotionally overwhelming that I’m finally getting what I always wanted. Having my child at 15 was pretty traumatic for me and having this apron belly as a constant reminder is exhausting…

I’m sad but I’m also so excited to finally be in my new body. It’s a bittersweet goodbye.a new chapter of my life I’m ready for!

I go for my TT on Tuesday yall. I’m so excited/anxious/emotional about this!!

Anyone else get these mixed feelings/emotions before their procedure. I feel like I’m gonna cry when I see my new body.

My nerves are telling me to back out. Just had a dream about the surgery. Woke me up real fast. I’m so anxious!!! Someone please calm my nerves down before I back out of it

Anyone seen this guy Jaylin Holland selling regular house kittens for 80-100 dollars per cat? Not only that but these kittens aren’t vaccinated and he’s just giving them away to people without doing the necessary precautions shelters do.

I’m concerned. He says that someone he knows is breeding them on the comments but I feel like this is animal abuse? Is there anyway to report something like this happening in New York City? Seeing videos posted in Manhattan, the Bronx etc. I just feel like this is so wrong for the animals. He’s definitely not insured or licensed either. Some people he gives them away to are HIGHLY questionable. He’s also selling regular cats, calling them exotic and selling them for more than 100. Which I think is crazy….

Do not support these people…

EDIT- he is viral on instagram and Facebook for those who don’t know! His videos are there to see. And you guys would be just as disturbed as I am!

For starters, I know it’s just a towel ok. But I have a special juicy cotoure towel that I absolutely love the texture of. And I used it about 2 times before he decided to use it himself.

As I’m about to hop in the shower, I ask him where’s my towel. And I just see it thrown on the bedroom floor. I get upset because one, I have ocd, so seeing that made me twitch inside. And 2, WE HAVE A BUNCH OF CLEAN TOWELS FOR USE. Why use my special towel that I’m obsessed with.

I told him I don’t want his d*ck and ball and dead skin cells all over my face and to please not to use my PINK towel that’s CLEARLY MINE. He apologized but this is something that continuously happens. First it was the toothbrush, now it’s the towel. I just do not like those types of things being shared. Boyfriend or not. I don’t even drink from the same cup my own mother drinks from.

AIO for yelling at him and telling him not to use my towel?!? I feel bad now that I’m not mad anymore and I feel like I over reacted. And now I want to apologize to him…
