Dr. Duffy and Barbara have been great so far. They have taken much time to explain everything to this nervous Nellie. I had my preop appointment this week, and will go shopping for my bras, panty liners for bra, and fill my prescriptions. Surgery is a week from today! Will update next week after surgery.

Day of treatment

Day of Surgery: 4 hours post-op

Narcy
I'm feeling a little sore, but the pain pills (hydro codone 5, acetaminophen 325) are working great. No nausea and I have phenergan supps just in case. Dulcolax for possible constipation. So far, I'm feeling great. My breasts seem rather large, but I know they will reduce down after swelling is past. I go for stitch removal on Friday ( surgery was today-Wednesday) and I will get more details about which size he went with, etcetera. I picked a range, with Dr. Duffy free to use his professional judgement once he was "in there." I trust his artististic, and surgical experience. I will update as I know more! I'm so excited and already feel sexier! Lol

Congratulations Sweetheart, I'm so happy you were able to give yourself this wonderful gift! I'm sure you feel like a new woman & you deserve it. If you don't mind what size & type of implants did you go with? I'm glad your pain meds are working for you & that your recovery is going well. I look forward to seeing how your journey progresses & I hope everything heals well.

Thanks so much! Mine were 500cc high profile mentor. I'm 5'9 14th a with a wide chest. I can't wait for the finished look! I go tomorrow to get bandages off. This is the second day, which I've heard is the worst. There's really no pain (thanks meds), just a heavy feeling.

Narcy, that's so exciting! I'm so happy for u, the great reveal is so wonderful! I will never forget the first time I saw mine...o my goodness I couldn't stop looking at then & I think I touched them for a week straight! Lol Can't wait for you to see what they look like :) that's going to be super exciting.... my dr had me take a shower at 48 hrs post-op & I was allowed to take a shower at home. I'll never forget my first shower, it was pretty crazy. It never felt so good to put a bra back on!

I had the bandages removed today. Got my first look at the new breasts, and I think I am going to love them. Dr said everything looks good. Pain is practically nonexistent, and the heavy feeling from yesterday has gone away. I'm only taking Tylenol now. If I can figure out how to post a picture with my new phone, I will. I'm swollen, and still high, so my nipples look low ( and rough with the strips and stitches.) This will resolve in time and I am sure they will look great.

Any tips on keeping the girls on the "qt" when I go back to work? I haven't told my coworkers. I've never had to buy shirts to down play my breasts before! Lol

I would maybe buy some of those eternity scads they wrap around & really hide your chest. I depends on what type of clothing u are allowed to wear. They have 2 for about 9 bucks at Walmart, that's another way to down play your breasts some. I will keep you in my thoughts & prayers, that your week will go by fast & that your body will feel better & better with each passing day. I will pray that people won't notice or ask u lots of questions. Also if u do something different with your hair that can distract people from your chest. I really like the scarfs they just completely play down my breast. Best of luck xoxoxoxo

That's a great idea, both the scarves and hair! I'll have to experiment with my hair. Thanks for the tips!

I went back to work 5 days after and wore Geni bra or something similar, kind of like a sports bra. I did not tell anyone. I do not think any customers have noticed. Wish you well
