Freaking out

Well as always I'm stressing and seriously over being me at this point!! Had my pre-op yesterday and my surgeon insisted that removing the capsule is not necessary. I already paid and everything but then found this site and now and really worried

I should probably stop reading stuff online but I just can't. I'm tempted to cancel and pay their hefty cancellation fee and then take my time finding someone who will do a capsulectomy. I am
Worried about leaving the scar tissue in. I just want everything out. It says on the link I posted that if you leave it in and can give false readings on mammograms etc. ugh!! I hate this and wish I had never got these toxic things put in. It is so not worth all of the stress and worry and all of the health issues I have had over the past 5 years. Gonna go try to rest now- if I can turn my head off :(

Feeling emotional and scared today :(

Hi all,

After feeling super excited and relieved to have my explant scheduled I am suddenly finding myself feeling scared and worried I will hate my boobs. I just have to keep reminding myself how much my implants ARE NOT me and remind myself of all the things I hate about them. I'm just so worried I will hate them and they are going to be flat. Please tell me they will fluff up! :( I will have to buy a padded bra this week to make up for it until they fluff up. Anyway, trying not to stress. This whole thing has really drained me these past few days. I am definitely looking forward to feeling better though and will be working with a holistic specialist to detox after they're out and get my body back on track.
Im also concerned about my surgeon leaving the capsule in. I;m just worried about accidentally leaving some of the toxic debri. I;ve read a lot about how dangerous it is to leave in. Anyway, need to restup for my pre-op tomorrow. Thanks all for listening! :)

I'm beyond excited to get these things out!!

Hi all,

I am just so happy and RELIEVED that I finally have made my decision and my surgery is in less than 2 weeks. I have been going back and forth with this issue for a few years now but have been completely consumed by it for the last few months, like OBSESSED. It's all Ive thought about. And my autoimmune disease is almost a blessing in disguise now because it made me finally decide to get them out. I am so grateful to have found out about it!! I can't wait to have these toxic bags out and to have my smaller breasts again. I hate how these feel and stick out and how they don't fit in anything and not even in D bathing suit cups. I am tired of trying to find bras with no padding and trying to hide them! I know my real breasts will sag for some time after but that's ok, and they may not look amazing but Im ok with that. I can always get a padded bra to perk them up. That's actually something I really miss about my real boobs- I could always buy the cute bras and liked accentuating my cleavage. Anyway, I'm just so excited I cannot contain myself- I feel like I'm going to be reborn and almost like a part of me died when I got them 6 years ago. Can't wait to embrace my body and let myself heal. Thanks all for reading and hope you all have a lovely Thanksgiving! :) xo
