3 weeks post Bilateral DIEP breast recon
Hi. I finally did my DIEP op. I procrastinated for ages and it feels so good to have it over and done with im 3 weeks post op, I think I’m recovering well but you know how you don’t “really” know. I get mixed advice but I’m off the pain meds which is a positive. I’m still not standing straight though. I’m close but it’s a xhallenge. I really have to focus to lengthen and I’m pretty slow walking around but Iv been walking around the block and walking around the shops but I’m not straight and I’m slow is this ok or should I be straight and walking normal? what point did you lay flat with no pillow under knees? im showering without my surgical suit (was anyone else’s belly flakey? Like swap skin?) im just mindful I don’t want to over do it but I want to make sure I’m doing enough
