Ok so everything hurts. I was given the go ahead to increase activity and I really didn’t, maybe just walking a little bit more. I was feeling decent and now I’m hurting badly again. My incisions are swelling. Everything feels super tight and uncomfortable. I feel like I’m 5 days post op with slightly less interior pain. Any advice?
Hello, I’m about 2 weeks post op. I’m off all pain meds/ back on my regular meds. I have INTENSE itching all over my body. It feels like red ants are crawling under my skin. No new soaps or fragrances/ detergents. While the itching is across multiple parts of my body most of it is not even near the incision sights, although it does occur both above and below my back incision (360TT). It won’t stop. I’ve tried cortizone, anti itch sprays, cold compresses, I took some zirtec earlier in hopes it would work, but so far nothing. I don’t have any Benadryl but can get some tomorrow, but I do need to be somewhat lively and active tomorrow during the day so I can’t take it until before bed. Help me! I’ve torn apart my healthy skin in some spots, and I can’t put my finger on what is causing it.
I lost 200+ lbs pre op. my day of weight was 160 lbs
I’m sore. But honestly the pain is fairly manageable.
I had a 360° belt lipectomy with a fleur de lis extension, a breast lift with some tissue removal for symmetry, some tissue removed under my arms, and a autoaugmentation of the butt.
Ok so I know, gross! Well I had a 360 tummy tuck with some other stuff, lots of incisions. Very extensive. Anyway, I can’t poop but the gas is there for sure! I’ve been taking colace and still nothing.
I go Thursday, 360 TT with fleur de lis extension, gluteal autoaugmentation, breast lift, back/ underarm lift, lipo on flanks.
Lost 211 lbs, this is the reality of massive weight loss.

I’m wondering if I’m even going to notice swell hell without that flap!
I’m assuming I’m going to lose another pants size or three. I hope the lift gives me at least a B cup, but with how much I have going on, my doc didn’t want to add any implant on top of it, which I agree with.
I started Terz last year in March I’m down 111 lbs. I’m done losing I went from 261-154. I go next week for my skin removal surgery and reconstruction. I couldn’t be any happier and am so pleased with the results and proud of myself for sticking with it and doing what I needed to do to get to this point.
