Doc has the flu, appointment canceled

Ooops. My doctor had to cancel because he has the flu. I was able to talk to one of the ladies on the phone today about what the appointment would have gone over. She told me to look at one of his videos on his website to see the massage technique that they were going to show me today, and gave me some more information. I am rescheduled for Thursday for my appointment.

The yellowish bruising that was there around day 5 is now completely gone. They seemed blockier around that time too. Now they don't seem as high as that time. They are still high and have that funny fresh high boob look from the side, but these are normal things to expect right now. I can be patient with them dropping.

I still promised the pictures though.

Day 10, about to have my 2nd Post-Op appointment

Things have been going pretty well. I seem to have gained full range and motion of my arms even though I TRY to keep it more limited. The hardest part of this entire process is just trying to sleep on my back since I am so used to sleeping on my stomach. I have woken up a few times on my side, I'm hoping that's okay and wont cause any issues.

I had a family reunion this weekend, and the only person that I told about the surgery was my mom. I was able to function fully and kind of hide the size, so no one knew I just had surgery. Success!! I can totally hide it from people if I want to. But swimming trips... that would be a different story, haha.

Unfortunately I forgot to take off the waterproof bandaids after my shower before I drove to the reunion. I didn't take the bandaids off until that night, and I'm afraid one or maybe both got damp despite the crazy hardcore waterPROOF bandaids. That kind of makes me a little nervous for my sutures since I know they are not supposed to be wet. Hopefully things will look okay. Now feeling over the sutures i think it feels harder than I remember before, but then again, I also dont really remember feeling the sutures much before the got wet.

I have been having some pain with my right breast by the armpit/side of the outside breast. This has been there since day one as an extra tender spot. Everything else seems to do better. They are still riding pretty high, like they always do at this point in recovery. I am anxious for them to drop and be able to fully function. Especially since I just moved and i am getting a job as a personal trainer. I want to be able to help lift heavier weights if I need to assist a client.

I'll post more pictures after my appointment!

Day 2 Post-Op Pictures!! Riding a little high, but not bad at all!!!
