top surgery

@theoddz, wow, I had no idea! I'll look into it, though thankfully won't be binding anymore. Its definitely not so severe looking on me as in a lot of the pictures I saw on google images and when they were doing the pre-op tests potential for clotting in that general area was something they were looking out for...I'm crossing my fingers that all is well. Right now it seems that some of my incisions are covering up the marks themselves, so its hard to tell if there's been any change in that department. How does one generally make sure this sort of thing hasn't already happened? Is it detectable in blood tests and such?

Thanks for sharing the info! Another reason for people to be more cautious when binding!

Anyhoo, one week post-op and things still looking good

Almost completely off pain killers and pretty mobile. Yesterday I was out all day trying to sort a bunch of school related stuff out and walking around a lot. I didn't seem to have too much trouble with that other than some occasional pain around the incisions. The surgeon was suggesting moving around if possible since apparently it helps reduce the chances of blood clotting (since we're on the topic of clots). Only thing is I can't wait to take a proper shower, lol!
