WORTH IT$6,750
Tonight I am 4 days post opt and I'm feeling about 75% normal. The soreness in my arms is pretty much gone, I've just about gotten used to the heavy feeling as well. I'm able to get around much better by myself too. I'm down to only talking 2 pain meds a day & that's it. One throughout the day & one at night.

A couple questions I have:

First how constipated did you guys get (if you did)? I've been taking meds and I haven't even had the urge. Is that normal or should I look into something else.

Some thing else:
When do your implants typically fall? What are some ways I can exercise them to fall? And do they look bigger or smaller after they do?

I chose this PS because everyone from friends to my hair dresser has went to him for their BA surgeries & they've said nothing but amazing things about him. I scheduled my consult with him in late January and my pre opt was March 19. Him & his staff were very sweet, happy & awesome every step of the way so far & I just felt comfortable in his office.

Today was much easier for me, I had managed to avoid the Valium altogether up until this morning after getting up every 3 1/2 hours take a pain pill I finally took half and the another half shortly after & I was able to go like 2 extra hours before I was in pain again. I plan to take just a Valium before bed & that's it.

For anyone who's had a previous BA surgery when did your breast start to fall? I wish mine would already!!

Congratulations! Thank you for sharing your journey on RealSelf. Love all your updates! Don't overdo it...even if you are suddenly feeling great. Is your grandma helping you out a bit? Hope you're getting some sleep tonight!

I'm trying to rest as much as possible! Right now I'm kind of struggling with my meds, I haven't taken any of my Valium bc I thought I was only supposed to take them if I had muscle spasms so I've just been taking my pain meds every 3 1/2 hours. My armpit area is so sore and my chest is super tight so I took a half of the Valium just bc it's really annoying. So we'll see how it makes me feel

I think you were smart to try just a half Valium. How did it work? I took my Valium at night but it sure made me weepy and nutty the next day. :)  Hang in there, you're almost over the hump. Are you taking anything to offset the constipating effect of the pain meds?! Keep us updated!

I actually didn't feel anything from half so I took the other half a bit later. I've been taking colace (sp?) twice a day but I haven't felt the urge to go. I've also just been drinking tons of water.
