Phillipa,
I am so sorry to hear that you are having complications from your surgery. I am a great proponent of aesthetic surgery and think that it can help with esteem and confidence. I think that it is really common to feel bummed out after surgery. We get really hyped up before the surgery (really scary to get surgery, right?) and then we feel so darn crappy afterward and we wonder if it will ever turn out the way we expected. Be good to yourself and pamper yourself. Just because things are not going as well as expected at the moment does not mean that you caused the complications. Don't expect the final "you" until the swelling has subsided. Keep me posted as to how you are doing. I care.
