Have you both had much swelling? Do you think you have more changes left to your body or do you think this is it?

Hi @Katie I’m doing fine thanks.

Surgery was done with no complications but I had general anaesethetic in the end not local.

Pain was little to none just uncomfortable sometimes and I had some bad swelling at night or my compression garments were trying to kill me.

Leakage was bad on the first night and day but I protected everything I could to stop it going on sofa/bed/bedding etc.

Thighs look okay but don’t think Beyonce is worried I’m going to steal her thigh crown. Long process now to see end results and like everyone else I just hope its worth it.

How are you doing?

Just 5 days until my surgery – trying to get excited but think it will really feel like I’m getting surgery once I get my admittance time.

I’m booked in for the 15th. Excited but a bit bored of waiting now. Ha Ha! Just stalking the internet and thinking of all the things I need and then ordering them. I’m staying with a family member on the first night and I’m obsessed with leakage. Will bring loads of towels but thinking of ordering a raised blow up bed which might be handy as my house has a downstairs bathroom, I can then camp out semi comfortably downstairs as steps might be an issue and I live alone.

Is someone being a darling and looking after you?

@Katie The blisters sound dreadful glad you can wear something else to ease the blisters. How was the leakage?

@Katie How are you doing?

You must feel great now you’ve had a shower! My plans are full steam ahead I am booked in with Dr Joffily. Not nervous or anything just want to get it done now.

How are you getting with the garment in general?

Good luck!

@Katie Blimey that was quick. I’m seeing surgeon next week but have to travel to London to have op, I have logistic problems so think that might slow down op

oh Katie, you lucky jammer! Did you have to wait long for an appointment?

Hey Vasergirl, How was the pain?

Laura, 6th of April that’s so soon you must be dead excited!! I’m off to see the surgeon again next week, so hopefully once we have discussed everything I will be booking. Will add you as a friend to keep up with your progress.

Hey Lettica,

I know this post is from a while ago but I am due to have a consultation with Dr Joffily after a referral from another surgeon.

How are your doing now?

Did you get the results you wanted in the end?
