“October 13th is the Big Day! - Milwaukee, WI”
Spent: $0 in Milwaukee, WI
Posted 5 Oct 2011
I am 42 y/o I wear a 38DDD. I have had big boobs since I was in the 6th grade; I was called the "black Dolly Parton". When I was in my late 20s I tried to get a breast reduction, but was denied by my insurance. So here I am now with headaches and neck pain. I'm nervous, I don't like pain. But I keep telling myself the temporary pain is worth the long-term results. Does anyone have any advice for me?

Thank you for the encouraging words. Just think one week from today it will all be over. I can't wait
Welcome Girlie! Another one of my Wisconsin "Home" girls:)
My advice to you is relax, get excited about what you are about to receive and stay with us here on RealSelf.
Say goodbye to the "Dolly" boobs and get ready for a light and perky new set of girls. Do you know approximately how much they are able to remove?
I am glad you are here with us:) How did you find RealSelf?
I will be thinking about you today:) Hugs and happy vibes coming your way.
Thanks for all the prayers and warm wishes. Surgery went fine. I was so nervous at the hospital this morning. I'm surprised that I have very minimal pain 12 hours after surgery.
It will be 3 weeks on Thursday and I have some swelling, some open spots, and some sharp pains here and there. However, overall it was not as bad as I thought it would be. The bad part was being queasy from the medication. I noticed also when I do to much my bra gets very tight as the day goes by.
