This Will Be a Life Changing Experience for Me and I Am a MIllion Percent Ready!!! - Barbados

Hello!!

I am 9 Days post op and am feeling good but am going in tomorrow to see my doc. My left breast is till swollen and under the bottom of it is hard, I mean really hard and when I touch it I feel a little pain, the right breast is starting to get hard but its not as bad as the other. My mind is telling me that the fluid that's suppose to leak out has clot up in there and I didn't get drains so that might be the reason.....Apart from that am doing well and feeling pretty good. I don't regret doing this surgery


Before I had my surgery when I was measured again, I measured at 36 f-g so all along I thought I was a 40DD lol

Hello Ladies!!! I know its been awhile but I was too weak to sit around the computer....

I had my surgery last week Friday, so that would make me 4 days post op and I can tell you am feeling much better today.
Here is a summery of my experience. I was admitted to the hospital on the 14th, where I met with the anesthesiologist and she explained how everything works and her part in my surgery. I was put on bed rest and being monitored for the rest of the day. On Friday morning about 9am I was on my way to the OR, I met with the consultant and she explain what she and the anesthesiologist will be doing. I was sedated before they gave me something like epidural (not 100% sure) but it works just the same. It was injected in my back, so after the procedure I wouldn't feel any pain in my breast area or my back. Afterward my surgeon came in and marked me up ( I was almost asleep but still conscious) and I can remember when he put on the oxygen on my face telling my to breath and bamm I was out lol. I remember waking up in the recovering room and the nurse was there asking me my name and where I was(which I answered correctly) I think I've been in surgery about 3hrs and about 1 or 2hrs in recovery. I was wheeled to my room where my hubby and 2 family member were there waiting. Believe me I don't remember being in any pain at all, I remember feeling really sleepy, drowsy, my throat was sore my bottom lip has swollen and I had a cough. The anesthesia gave me a lot of side effect which affect me for three days, all I want to do was sleep. Anyhow my doc told me he removed 1lb from each breast (which I was pleased to hear) but to be honest I still think they are too big, I know for sure the right one is smaller than the left or you can say the left has a lot more swelling than the right....I go in tomorrow for my first appointment so I will share my concerns... I promise I will try my best to upload pics by tomorrow....can't find my usb cord so I might have to upload it to the laptop

So I am 4 days post op, still a little sore around the side oh I forgot to mention I got liposuction on both sides of my breast....I can feel a big difference, no pain in my shoulder or my back so I am happy about that but I just don't feel 100% happy with my overall result...anyhow let's hope after the swelling I see something different.
Btw what do I do about the itching I
have been having?? Am afraid to even rub it too hard.....

Hello Ladies!!

So I got a call from my Doc office today, telling me that I was rescheduled for.......wait for it....the 22nd yeah :) then about 3 hours after they called me back telling me that another patient had changed her date so they would put me up for surgery this Friday........at that moment I was speechless :) So the doc said I should come to the hospital from tomorrow morning and I would stay there for Friday morning to do the surgery.

Now I can't stop thinking about it, I am so nervous, anxious, happy and thinking about my baby ( I know she will be in goods hands but I have never sleep without her before) I am just getting my things together and trying to take it a step at a time....
I will try and upload some pictures later in the night......Good luck to all who have upcoming surgery!!! and safe healing to who have done theirs already
