Finally Happening - Palos Heights, IL

Another follow up appt today. Anxious because yesterday I started feeling some really sharp pains under my left breast that's really painful. I'm assuming its the drain that's still in on that side, it feels like its poking me or something and I have to be careful how I move or its a stabbing pain. Had to go back to the pain meds. That's the only thing that helped me through yesterday. I pray everything is okay. Will update later.

Forgot to add in the update from today. Was only able to get the right drain taken out. The left is still in until next week. Ladies I have to be honest getting that drain out was a bit painful. I didn't take a pain pill prior because I was cutting back on taking them plus the nurse said I had some scabbing around the drain which she had to work threw before trying to put it out. Ouch! Next week I will definitely take a pain pill before next weeks appt! Can't endure that again!

My healing has had its ups and downs. I have been really tired due to pain meds and I assume my body healing. Had a spot of my left breast that I have to wet/dry pack 2-3 times a day now until next week. It's not too pretty right now but the right is looking pretty good! I have sowed down on the percocets as they had me a little too out of it. I am still in the breast binder but now my back kinda hurts still from sleeping on my back Argh! I am also still pretty bloated which is getting kinda annoying. Otherwise I love the new size! My neck and back pain from the h breasts is now gone! Can't wait to get healed so I can get back to working out. And hopefully this bloat will go away soon. Adding a photo from today.
