3 days post op!
Hey so I'm 3 days post op, haven't taken any pain meds besides some Tylenol the first 2 days. I feel great! No pain, just that tightness in my chest, I have this weird feeling under my armpits when I move certain ways but that's all. I haven't been lifting anything but I do feel some discomfort when opening up heavy doors like for the car or fridge.
I went back to the PS the day after the surgery and he cleaned the stitches and tossed on some steri strips. He told me to stop my antibiotics and that I was healing perfectly. No bruising and some minor swelling. I was cleared to shower the next day, just to try and keep the strips as dry as possible. I go back to him next Thursday to either clean it again or to take the stitches out.
I got my BA implant card, mentor smooth round high profile gel 200cc under the muscle!
It's weird to me that all the reviews on this site are well over 200cc and yet I feel like I'm huge!!! I know the swelling goes along with it but I couldn't imagine going any bigger, I'd feel so disproportionate.
As far as the procedure went, I didn't really explain it too well. I got there at like 8:10 to go in at 9, of course like any OR they were running a little late. I went in around 8:35 to change into the funny disposable undies(didn't want to ruin mine with betadine) I went into my recovery room, sat with one of the nurses and went over some questions again, pregnancy test and all that stuff. Surprisingly I was really calm and not nervous at all. I got all marked up by my PS, my mom came in and gave me a hug and that was that. I actually walked into the surgery all suite, said hi to the scrub techs and nurses and layer down on the table myself....this is when I was starting to feel like... Oh [RS bleep]. They put the blood clot preventing leg pump things on me...weird feeling and a warm blanket which helped. As they were setting me up they saw my tattoos and we were talking about that which calmed my nerves. The anesthesiologist came in and we were talking about tattoos and the. He said your going to feel a little relaxed now, I just remember saying that my hands were cold and then......boom. I woke up in the recovery room talking to the nurse or my mom or idk maybe even myself about being at the dentist hahah!!! I was 100% positive I was at the dentist. I had some crackers and ginger ale, I wasn't nauseous at all I just felt like really off. My mom came in and we laughed for a while and I got dressed on my own with some help from her, got in the wheelchair, made a pit stop at the bathroom and they wheeled me out the car and I was on my way home. It was odd, I was so out of it when I woke up but as soon as I was dressed I was 100% back to my self, a little sluggish but I wasn't loopy at all.
I'll post some pictures, I've been trying to stay away from the steri strips so excuse the betadine.

And we're done!
Hey all I'm home now just laying in bed, icing a bit and watching tv. I haven't taken any pain meds yet, I personally don't really like them. I feel pretty good! I wasn't nauseous at all, woke up thinking I was at the dentist LOL!! Just feel a tightness in my chest, he gave me I think 200 or 225CC, I'll double check tomorrow when I go in to see him.
I went home without a surgical bra, just some steri strips and my track suit.
Here's a pic from a couple hours post op!

Morning... Here we goooo!
I can't believe today is the day! It's 5:50am and I'm just getting ready to hop in the shower. I wasn't nervous at all...until now. I just want to fast forward to 2pm today when I'm home already. Just so worried about anesthesia, side effects and what not.
I'll update later or tomorrow about my experience, wish me luck!
