Capsular Contracture

Well lucky me. A few months ago I had some discomfort in my left breast but thought nothing of it, until about 3 weeks ago I noticed it was pretty hard. Made an appointment with my PS and he confirmed it’s capsular contracture. I’m super bummed out, it’s only been 2 1/2 years! I have read about how the chances of future complications increase once you have a replacement put in. Not only do I have this to deal with but I’ve also heard about breast implant illness, which I’m now wondering if this is the reasoning for my GI issues and constant headaches that I’ve been dealing with for about a year and a half. I’m so torn on what to do.......... I love my boobs, I went from a small B to a DDD.
In my hours of research I’ve read about explanation with fat transfer. I like the idea of that, of course I know I’ll need a lift. :|

Updated pictures

It's been a little while since I've posted any pictures, but then again nothing has really changed! I still love my girls and still thrilled with my decision to go through with my BA! I have now grown to enjoy buying bathing suits where I don't need to find one that lifts my sad ole boobs up. I am measuring anywhere from a 32f to a 32g depending on the bra which are hard to come by. I have done a lot of ordering online and sending back because every bra is different. It's worth it to me though to feel this good about myself!

The struggle is real!!

Ladies I need some help, I can not find any place around me that sells any bras that will fit me other than Walmart. I really don't want to get any of those playtex 14 hour parachute bras :) I did order 2 from Yandy to see if those would work but of course I ordered 32f and I had lovely double bubble happening. It's so hard to order online just because every bra is different. I am a little sad that Victoria's Secret doesn't go big enough for me because I love their bras.
So any ideas or suggestions would be great!
