3 days post op a little bruised but not on pain meds just a little tender .. Fluid was hard first two days but today much better have posted a pic which may help a few and it really looks a lot worse than it feels .. Good luck everyone grab your dreams and never let them go x

Wow!! happy to hear you are feeling well so soon. That makes me feel so much better. Also this is the first pic I have seen after the surgery. Thanks for taking the time to show us pre op peeps what to expect. Keep up the good work.

I am 4 days post op, my bruising is going away and I just have that superglue stuff, so it looks better and better. Being in the hospital was unbelievably rough...and I am a nurse! The day I went home, I felt pretty good, but today I am tired and a little blue...

Post op gets better...my melt down came the next night after I got to come home. The bruising sucks however it it lightening up. The walking is tough but push thru. I am up to 1/2 mile walking twice a day. You can do this.
