3 months post op and have not seen myself even close to flat yet. At 5 weeks it wasn't as bad but after that it's gotten so much worse. It doesn't go down at all. My PS said it's not related and wants me to see a gastro, it just doesn't make sense to me. I look worse than before surgery and am really disappointed. I did have a large muscle separation and I understand swelling is normal but this is out of control.
