Well, pain still the same. I have to request for more celebrex. I feel like CRAP! , Lots of regrets, depression is kinking in. I already have done this surgery, but I keep Google for reviews, scars, doctors, diferent incision etc etc. I know is the past and I have to live with it. I love the shape and how they look now., but then I was going thru my whole boobs and I stared freaking out about the big cuts!! I'm going thru a horrible stage,. I can not even hug o play or been around my kids! I feel miserable! !. I was trying to drive yesterday but I fail. I went for my first check-up. Every thing was normal bla- bla. I still swollen. I feel like I'm producing milk. I look like I'm wearing one of those football chest protection things. Hard to walk straight, seat, or been normal. I don't know how long the swollen will go on. But for right now that's how I feel. I don't know if is better to do the lift first and then later the implant. But for sure, every time I move I feel that I'm opening a stich. Wearing 2 diferent bras.

Christa. Happy? Not yet. I feel help less. I'm a very active person. I can NOT do anything yet. But I'm been bad Im driving, riding a bike, walking, doing laundry... and I can tell that My boobs need a break. I still swollen, pain. I have my second celebrex med. I stop taking vicodin. I'm with tynelon. In between my books is very puffy. Hard to breath, cough, sneeze. But I still hanging there. My awesome husband still helping me. He make me laugh a lot, I can not stand it!!! :-) He actually told me this " Before, those two girls, where looking down at me, now they can see me straight at my eyes" ha ha ha..

You look Great. I a sorry you are having feelings of regret. These procedures make us go through these emotional stages and it takes a toll on our mental&physical state. Hang in there&Be Positive. Try drinking pineapple juice for the swelling. The swelling is the Worst&lasts forever 3-6 months. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Thank you. I will, hang in there.

As_hun much better. But the left one still numb. Doing more stuff around the house :-). Still having the tapes until december. Wearing the tong bra. Sport bra, and a comfy one too. Sometimes I get tired easily. And very itchy around the breast. I it feels like a regular breast. Seriously, we should post how terrible is the first weeks emotional and physical. I was regretting WHY I DID THiS??!!! Posting more pic of my week by week.

Thanks! Glad that its getting better. Is the tape thing normal and what is a tong bra? I'm still in the deciding on a dr part, well I think I've decided, but haven't confirmed or set a date. I am actually thinking I'm going to use the same dr. I can't wait to see your progress!

Yes, a little better. The tape is for the stitches, and my doc recommend this, but it depends the Dr. My Dr is very perfectionist. The tong bra is for separate the breast to come to close 1. Implant to big 2. It can be symmastia 3. Skin very stretch. My option was not to take a risk to have one of this. It is optional. I have two preced so, I think I did two in one. My surgery was 3.5 hrs. And a little more because my doc won't leave the operation room until his job is perfect. Another thing,. As soon you get into the pre-op room, your really start freaking out. They have to give you the relaxation med. Your world changes very fast. Then the real med comes in. It shoot you down. You stay at the hospital until you wake up and then you go home.

Hey, Hope you're doing good! Are you happy with the results so far, and are you happy with your doctor?
November 10, 2014
Doing good, some discomfort. Been with the tapes until 3 mos. My Dr knows what he is doing. He told me not to care about scars, results that what it counts! I have same implant size on my boobs. He did a lot of work in one boob. I had breast lift with implant. It takes a while to recover with this two precedure. Thanks for asking.
