Plastic Surgery update

Tweet

I posted a few days ago about my recent plastic surgery. I went back yesterday for my first post op appointment. He removed the stitches, which was a lot more painful than I expected and also the drain, which was a lot less painful than I expected. He had me start taking asprin daily to prevent blood clots and I got to remove the TED hose today. It feels so good to be rid of the hose and the drain. I can actually use both hands to shower now instead of having to hold that freaking bulb in one hand. The only problem I have is that the top layer of skin over my belly button has died and it's black. He says it may turn out ok or we may have to do surgery later (at his expense) to repair it. Even with that problem, I'm still very happy that I had it done. I love improving my appearance -- it makes me feel better both inside and outside. How about you? How do you feel about having something like this done?
