Yesterday was the big day!! The whole process was nice and quick and I'm glad to say I didn't feel a thing...I recall saying ouch a few times but I don't remember the pain! I know that was little weird! I don't remember getting dress, how I got in the car, or checking into the hotel (we stayed in a hotel cause we live 2 hours away and I have to go back to the docs today)....I woke up around 4:30 pm super thirsty....

I'm super duper surprised that I have no real pain...definite soreness but very little pain! I was able to lay in bed on my side and it didn't hurt at all!

I went to my first post-op appt and I got my first...

Search jeffry schafer through the California medical board. Beware.

Schafer caused nerve damage to my left pectoral muscle and refuse to see me after I confronted him about it post surgery. My left chest is now flatter, indented, disfigured as well as loss of strength. I would not recommend him as he has multiple complaints of negligence and malpractice in his record.
