I'm new to the board but I wanted to say Hello as I am a Dr. Q post-op as well. Glad to hear you are doing well. I had my LBL, BL/BA, and Arm Lift at Cosmed w/ Dr Q in October 2007 and more scheduled breast work in March 2008. Very happy with the experience. The first time I stayed at Irene's (a different recovery house) I have mixed reviews and since then I have been staying at The Lucerna Hotel www.hoteleslucerna.com (about a block away from the current Cosmed building) and I love it... if you are having more work in the future I highly recommend it. It is about $85 a night I believe (medical rate mention Dr. Q) and they are so used to us PS post-ops. Great food, great staff, close to the clinic literally a block, near a Gigante supermarket, across the street from Starbucks (LOL a girl has to have her latte) and a pharmacy.

Hope your healing is speedy. You will love love love having a flat belly!

What is LBL,BL/BA? I am a little lost.......Kay

I had lap-band in Sept 06. Everything has been great. Lost 40 lbs. and have kept if off. I exercise regularly. HOWEVER, my stomach is lumpy. It is hard to describe, when I run my hand from top to bottom, it is wavy and looks terrible from the side view. I went to a plastic surgeon and he said I needed a tummy tuck. Do I really? Has anyone had this problem?
