I really wish we could muzzle lying cyber trolls. Go be miserable on your own and quit trying to drag others into the muck with you.

In light of my recent surgery hell, I've decided I'm going to live with the rest of the excess skin. I'd rather look like a Shar Pei naked then be dead of a blood clot. I just can't take that risk again.

My vascular surgeon (aka, the man who saved not only my legs but my life) suggested walking 20 minutes a day to rebuild strength and also help flush all the fluid out of my body. Sounds good to me, I've missed my walks so much! 20 minutes is better than nothing!

13 hours of sleep in my own bed last night was heaven. Today, I start walking 20 minutes a day to regain my strength and work this fluid out. (yes this is what my doctor recommended lol)

I'm so sorry to have worried so many and I will respond to all your PM's soon. I am alive. I spent the last 8 days in the ICU with severe clotting in my both my legs. I just got home today and will make a blog post explaining it all soon. But I am ok

I'm in the hospital with blood clots in both legs. Kinda scary but I'm glad I followed my instincts and came to the ER when the pain got bad. *sighs*

I think the Lasix is making my blood pressure drop too low when I stand up. I keep almost fainting. When I'm sitting, it's around 110/70 but when I stand it drops to 90/54. Ugh seriously, I'm so over this and feeling like crap.

I've never blocked someone on here before. If you block them, can they not see your posts or only that you can't see theirs?

4 pounds of water weight gone. Only 24 more to go. C'mon Lasix!

Just got back from my doctor. I'm now up 28 pounds of water weight in my legs. He put me on Lasix so I'm praying this starts helping fast.

Whopping 22 pounds of water weight and it's all in my legs. It actually hurts to move. I'm supposed to see my doc on Tuesday but I'm calling tomorrow. This just sucks,

When did common sense stop being "common"?

I'm having my first serious MS exacerbation in almost 3 years. I guess 2 surgeries in a month was just too much for my body. I feel like hell

I'm officially out of plus sized clothes. I'm so happy.

No more drains! YAY!!! \0/

These staples and drains definitely need to come out. They're annoying the heck out of me.

8 days post TT/hernia/skin removal surgery and I actually feel halfway decent again.

I never, ever thought a time would come I'd lose my appetite let alone struggle to eat enough- but that's exactly what has happened this past week,

My tummy is feeling noticeably better today. Too bad I spent the entire day in bed fighting an ocular migraine. How ironic.

Wow I'm actually feeling vaguely human today. Baby steps!

I'm realizing how important the compression garments after a tummy tuck. Just in the time it takes to have a shower I swell up a lot but the compression binder brings the swelling right back down. I don't like wearing it but it's definitely doing it's job.

Day 3 post tummy tuck/skin removal/hernia repair. I'm forcing myself to walk around the house every couple hours. This is so hard but I keep telling myself it's so worth it.

I'm home from the hospital. My surgeon removed over 12 pounds of excess skin. I'm not going sugar coat it- this sucks. I keep telling myself I'll be so glad in a couple weeks once I'm healed but right now I'm pretty miserable.

Ugh I just found out my surgery isn't until 2:30 tomorrow afternoon. That almost guarantees won't be able to come home until Friday. I'm not a happy camper -.-
