I am shell I am a parent with aspergers syndrome.

I had a tummy tuck along w/ a little lipo on my upper abdomen and upper back. I had the surgery Nov 9. I am really stressing out right now b/c I just want to hear from someone that what I am experiencing so far is normal. First of all, I look fat. I mean if you look at me from a side profile---from stomach to back------I look much "thicker" and "wider" than I used to look. My bellybutton is crooked and my sides are nowhere looking the same----also, I am still very sore. SO SICK of taking pain meds....still not walking completely upright and when I try to, it feels like I am going to pull my stomach apart. Right now, I am most concerned about the way my stomach looks....is this swelling or is this what I am going to look like?? Tuesday will be 2 weeks post-op and I know it can take 6 weeks to see better results BUT is looking bigger normal? Aso, some places (on my R side for instance) appear to have small fat rolls.....please help....thanX so much!
