Firstly wan't to say hello all! I'm due to get my reduction on the 15th Dec in Thailand. I'm a 34 F 33 & 10 stone, i wan't to go to a C, I'm nervous about so much, e.g do you have to stop taking the pill? My contact at the hosp said i could carry on taking antidepressants, but i havn't mentioned that i take prescribed pain killers..(due to a bad accident) I'm scared i can't take them too?! Will i be able to have one or two drinks in the cpl weeks before the op, as i'll be in Thailand with family etc! Should i invest in the silicone tape that you putover your scars? Sorry to unload like this but if anyone can help with my questions that would be amazing! x How long until you get your stitches out? x
