A Little Nervous but Excited - Great Neck, NY

I have just gotten a nipple reduction and breast...

I have just gotten a nipple reduction and breast lift two days ago. I am very happy I have gotten it done since I have always been embarrassed of my breasts. But, I have been very nervous and almost paranoid and I am not sure why. I stopped taking the pain killers because I was getting constipated. I am scared to look at my breasts and see the scars. I took a shower for the first time today and got very dizzy and had to sit down. I know it will be worth it in the end but the recovery process, even though has just started, is really taking a toll on me.

Great review?

I'm sorry this recovery has been rough for you. Your incisions probably won't be pretty at first, but they should fade CONSIDERABLY over the next few months/years, so don't be too freaked out by the red angriness in the beginning. The dizziness during the first shower is common, but if you're concerned, do call your surgeon for a chat.
