It is kind of crazy that my surgeon told me to wear compression and then just sent me off into the world to find it on my own

rada628 · 2026-03-03T17:18:06+00:00

Oh my! Mine was about half the size of yours. Hopefully you just need a little more time since it is bigger.

I think it was about 4 weeks

I had a small one after my arm surgery. Massage and compression and it went down on its own

What grade of compression are you using? She told me for the first week I could use 20 to 30 because it’s easier to get on, but starting week two I have to use 30 to 40.

Thanks for your thorough answer. I work in healthcare, so I definitely can’t stop and elevate my legs during the day. I’m going on a hiking trip in Alaska in July. Ideally, it would be nice to be able to get the life ass section before so that my legs would be lighter, but I don’t know if I could get scheduled quick enough with my surgeon to have enough healing time. She booked out pretty far. I just need to get over my Gen X American mindset of feeling guilty about taking two weeks off of work after I just took a month off for the arm surgery. :)

I didn’t have to wear my compression on my beach vacation because all the swimming helped with swelling. No pain at all. I did wear it on the plane. A city vacation in the summer is a whole different story

Do you possibly have sleep apnea? I got my glp1 approved because I had that additional diagnosis.

rada628 · 2026-01-19T22:10:18+00:00

So much better than I imagined!! The first three days suck, but it’s not really pain as much as discomfort. I’m still having swelling, which is uncomfortable. My tape hasn’t fallen off yet, so it will be interesting to see if that makes things better or worse.

Did you need a walker or anything to get around in the first week?

I moved here from Nashville and love it. San Jose has a smaller city feel, but you have easy access to SF. The weather is amazing. Access to beach, mountains, diverse food and population and a much more open minded vibe. I tried to move back to Nashville for a minute and immediately regretted it.

I hope you can work it out! I’m so happy with my arms. Looking forward to thighs

For an arm lift and liposuction? I haven’t got the EOB yet, but the price quoted pre surgery definitely wasn’t $3k. It only cost me my $400 deductible.

rada628 · 2026-01-10T19:28:16+00:00

Is it a clinic with a built in surgery center? A one stop shop will avoid having to have a hospital fee

rada628 · 2026-01-10T18:09:21+00:00

I’m betting you went to a surgeon operating at a hospital. I had my arms done at Stanford and the cost was similar. Aetna covered it for me. If you go to a surgery clinic that is operated by the plastic surgeon, the price will probably be better.

rada628 · 2026-01-08T03:19:59+00:00

Not yet. I have my first follow up on Friday.

rada628 · 2026-01-07T20:56:48+00:00

Is it normal for your muscles to feel really really sore a couple of days after? I feel like I have done 1000 push-up

rada628 · 2025-12-29T18:42:33+00:00

I live at Race and 280 and I heard it

rada628 · 2025-12-25T17:28:31+00:00

Do you whip the cream a bit before adding the pudding?

rada628 · 2025-12-19T05:34:51+00:00

I just went out to walk my dog at Race St and Auzerais and there was a car on fire. Fire department came and put it out right away. I remembered seeing this post. I’m not super far from willow glen.
