Guest guest Posted October 11, 2003 Report Share Posted October 11, 2003 To: in CT RE: how long after your TT did the symptoms start? I am almost 2 weeks out and was hoping i am past that point. Hi, It was obvious the next morning, there was a dark purple line right next to the incision. Essentially a loss of blood supply to the area. Over the next two weeks that echymosis expanded, then the tissue sloughed and broke down, not pretty. It had to be debrided in the OR, no pain, no nerve endings still alive to hurt, so it was done without local or whatever. I would say that if you are two weeks out, you are probably OK. I don't want to discourage anyone from considering plastics, I am very happy with my flat tummy and the girls look great too. I had a lift done at the same time. It was an ordeal, but I am pleased with the outcome. SueA RNY 254/143 9/28/01 TT/BL/Lipp 10/25/02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
