Guest guest Posted July 25, 2002 Report Share Posted July 25, 2002 I too was told that the tummy tuck was worse than the bypass. I was off of painkillers within two days of being home after the bypass. Tummy tuck can't even say I really had any pain. Was very sore but wouldn't put it in a category of pain. Everyone is different we all have different levels of pain tolerance, so you really can't go by what someone else tells you. You know what your pain threshhold is and take it from there. Have to admit, even if it were incredibly painful, I would have been glad to have done it. Having no skin jiggling and hanging from my abdomen is wonderful and not having to tuck my stomach into my pants every morning is even better. You have to make your own decision whether or not to do it. I wasn't going to do it at all and just be happy with the weight loss. Then all of a sudden, I just said, " that's it, I'm tired of this " and I had it done. Do what you feel is right. Regina Block Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
