Re: TT Pain????

[Guest guest]

I have to agree with Carolyn. I had my TT 4 weeks ago today and I am still

hurting and I can't stand up straight. All my other surgeries were a breeze

compared to this. But my tummy is pretty flat (even despite the swelling).

TT Pain????

> I found the TT the worst pain, by far, of all the surgeries I have had

(open bypass x2, breast lift/implants, lower body lift, tt/abdominoplasty,

knee surgery, abdom hysterectomy). However, it was six weeks before I could

even stand upright my belly was so tight, so I may have been in a little bit

different situation than most TTs. I can say that it was worth it, and that

I would do it again. Prescription meds were a necessity, as was 4-6 weeks

of doing nothing. Following open bypass and hysterectomy I was doing normal

activities within days of the surgeries, so it was not because I have a low

wimp titer. Just my take on it. Doc Carolyn
