Breast Reduction: Stories

OMG!! Thank you soooo very much. I didn't know what the heck was going on with me. I thought at one time that it's because I'm supposed to start my monthly this week. Your comment has helped me alot. It also gets boring sitting around the house and I don't really have anything to do or go. I am trying so hard to make the best of it because I LOVE my new boobs and wouldn't change it for nothing. I do not regret having this surgery at all. This is my 2nd week so I will try to prepare myself for next week, incase I'm like you during that week. lol Oh my goodness. Anyway, hopefully, I'm fully recovered by my 6th week because that's when I go back to work full force. I unload mail, heavy mail. Oh, I also find that pain pills sometimes help me with my mood swings than the clonopins I have. Weird, huh? Well, thank you for commenting and you have helped me. Have a good day :O)

Hey.. I just read your posts too.. Totally normal to feel like you just want everyone to sod off... I pretty much just wanted to sit quietly and doze in and out of sleep.. I couldn't even be bothered to read. I think the pain pills were messing with my eye sight though. I had trouble focusing. It definitely gets much better the 2nd week and as you ween off the pills.. I just took one at night for pain after the first 4 days i think. I still like to take the Xanax to sleep now.. Think i need to stop using it as a crutch.. Its just hard when you are not able to sleep in the position that you normally do.. So I don't think you feel fully rested. Then you are uncomfortable which makes you cranky, Hence the term "Bear with a sore head". Don't beat yourself up. Give yourself a while and allow yourself to be pissed off if you want. You have been through a lot. Just explain to your fiance.. that you can't help it, but your pissed off and may snap at him. Is your Mom and Grandmother on board with the whole decision yet? Or is that still hanging out there? Thats probably not helping either if thats the case. I am really close to my Mum and to think that she may have been against it would really have sent me into turmoil. Hope you are doing OK today :)

Oh yea, my mom and grandma are totally ok with it now. Now that they see I'm alive after surgery lol. That's what they were worried about. Yea, I think maybe my fiance understands. He basically just wants to know that I still love him. I told him nothing has changed that I WILL feel depressed and down and out and want to be by myself some. He thinks that in a crisis like this that you should want to be with the one your most closest too. Well, that's not true, in my opinion, because I wanted to be by myself. But, all in all I think everything will be ok soon. As today, I feel ALOT better than I have since surgery. I'm just laying around watching tv. I'm ok today. Thank you for asking and thank you for your comment. It helps to see other people who have gone through the same surgery.

Awww, thank you. I just wish I didnt have this upper respiratory crap. Hopefully, the antibiotics will clear it up. I have my support bra on and it pulls the tape strips sometimes. I havent taken s pain pill today, prob will when I go to bed, to help me sleeo. It sure is hard to get comfortable when you can only lie on your back. Thank you and I hope I heal soon!!! I like doin things or myself.
