3 Days Post OP TT

Jul 10, 2009

Checking in with everyone!  Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers!

I had my Extended TT at Mt. Sinai Hospital in NYC on Wednesday morning at 9:00AM. My wonderful surgeon was Dr. Matthew Schulman of Madison Avenue Plastic Surgery.

First, let me begin by saying what a professional and courteous hospital staff.  I was a bit nervous because I didn't hear the best about Mt. Sinai...but they were wonderful!  My procedure went off on time and without any problems!

As soon I was feeling up to it I was discharged (around 4PM) I couldn't wait to get home to rest in my own house!

I feel pretty good.  I'm taking my pain meds pretty regularly.  They have been keeping me awake.  But I prefer to have little pain! I also have a pain pump.  One drain is barely producing any fluid.  The other one is putting out a large amount of fluid.

I have my follow-up on Tuesday morning.  Dr. Schulman will remove the pain pump and probably one drain at this time.  Looking forward to seeing my new Tummy!

Thanks again for all the advice and kind words!
