6 weeks post op...

Hooray! I've said it once, and I'll say it again....why didn't I do this sooner?!?!
My spirits are definitly rising now. I am feeling like the old me again, just loads lighter on my shoulders. I have my 6 week checkup tomorrow and hoping all is well. I did start jogging on Monday with only a minor instance. I was feeling a slight pull in a muscle in my left breast going from my armpit to the inside of the breast. It is pretty constant as I'm running but it goes away without any aches or pains. I will ask about that. I need to exercise because I REALLY did take it easy the past 6 weeks. I was too afraid to open an incision!

Speaking of incisions, they do look really good. They are still quite prominent, it seems they are more noticable then the pictures on here of other women at 6 weeks. Most of the pics I've been seeing is in dark lighting so I'm hoping my recovery is normal. I still have the smallest, little openings where the vertical incision meets the areola. I feel like it will never close up totally but I know it will eventually. I will ask my doc tomorrow if there is something I can do to speed it up.

The neosporin worked wonders, I did not get any infections. I have been using Mederma now for a few weeks. I don't notice the Mederma doing much of anything, but I'm guessing it will take time and plus I see it everyday so I may not notice the changes.

Last thing now I'm waiting on is my insurance company to get back to me to see if I receive anything back.

I will upload some pictures soon since they do look different.

Have a great day!

1 month post op

Everything is basically the same. I am sleeping on my side now with no pain on most nights, unless I pushed myself that day. I still feel bruised inside the breasts as well as the ribs directly under. The bumps in the car arent as bad as they use to be. i still wear a sports bra for the most part since it is the most comfortable bra. All other bras basically lay on the incision. I can lift without straining or feeling it at that moment, but I don't push it. Scarring looks about the same so I won't upload any pics at this time. I am totally ecstatic that I got this done. While I agree you can be up and moving after a week, I can totally say that if you were active at all, it can take weeks (3-5 or more) till you resume your normal activities.

Dr. Cuber performed a breat reduction on my July of 2013. I am not exaggerating when I say I visited 8 other plastic surgeons. Many were highly recommended, one was even on Oprah years back (he turned out to be quite arrogant and acted as though I bored him). When I first met Dr. Cuber I was comfortable immediately because of his attentiveness to my questions and thoughts. He is very thorough during the office visits and the prep before surgery. At a time I should have been freaking out (minutes before the surgery), he was very patient and kind which helped me to relax. I actually commented to the girls at the front desk that I feel comfortable putting my life in his hands! Dramatic, I know, but he makes you feel that comfortable. I can't say enough about him as a surgeon. Maria the office manager is pushy and arrogant, just don't let her discourage you. She almost made me want to walk out. All the others are phenomenal to work with.
