Worried that my muscle repair didn’t work (3 weeks out)

Hi! I got a muscle repair, tummy tuck and lipo 3 weeks ago today. When I bed down I have all the hanging skin I used to have, so I’m worried that the tummy tuck didn’t stick. I know I may be swollen, but would that account for it? I assumed that I’d be so tight that I wouldn’t have all of that that hangs even if I suck in.

I took it very easy. I have did get nauseous 3 times the past 3 weeks and did throw up a bit, so I’m worried that broke the muscle repair. My doctor said he sewed me up extremely tight but it just doesn’t feel like that. Feeling worried that I may have wasted 15k on something so big. Can anyone ease my worries? I could provide pictures if that helps.

Thank you.
