Six weeks post op. swollen and sore. Some trouble with Fluid build up. Going to the doctor tomorrow to get the fluid drained.

I paid that much. It was worth it.

I am on day 2 and the pain is pretty bad. But not tga worst pain I have ever felt. I am already happy with the results! My scars go all the way under my armpit. The doctor said we could stop at the top of go all the way. I was kind of borderline. But because some skin hangs over my bra I decided to go all the way with the tuck. It's almost 24 hours out and there a quite a bit of swelling. But I can see a huge difference.

Had anyone else had exteeme, I mean like the worst pain of my life, when getting an unfill? Three times I have ended up in the emergency room after an unfill. It feels like I have open skin inside my esophagus that someone is pouring acid in. The doctor says spasm but that is not what it feels like. Now I am afraid to get an unfill. Anyone else experience this? I feel like it is tears or open skin.

I had dr kuri Santiago in Tijuana in December of 2001. I have not had problems with the band. I have had problems with no support and expensive fills. But I don't regret going there. Great experience.

The first six months if my pregnancy were like that. But come seventh month I did fine. Intact I gained 100 pounds. Ouch!

Thank you! That helps me not be so scared. If you can get thru two at one time, I can get thru one lol

I am 12 years post op and 2 years after I had my son. I am finally getting an arm lift. Can anyone tell me really what the recovery is like. The doctor has me off work for three weeks. Will I be able to get out of bed or eat and what about showering. Monica
