I am currently a HH cup - 8 weeks post op - South Africa, ZA

Hi everyone, i have been considering a breast reduction for as long as i can remember. My path with out of proportion breasts started in puberty and even in summer i was wearing cardigans to try and hide it. Throughout the years i never had the money to do it and i was too scared. Now i am turning 40 in Novembber and i have decided to give myself the gift of a breast reduction. I am currently a HH cup,i LIVE with pain in my neck,back,shoulders and headaches.I have to wear silicone inserts under my bra straps to prevent them from cutting into my shoulders, i cannot do anything remotely bouncy even with an expensive sportsbra on as it simply turns from 2 huge boobs into one uniboob which feels as if its going to rip from my chest. I am quite small around the waist,a 34, but i have to buy all my shirts in a 16 or 18 to fit over my breast which in turn makes me look huge. So yes,finally i will be seeing the dr for my pre op on the 18th of Oct and my surgery is scheduled for 19 November. I am very excited but also a tad nervous. My main concern is recovery time as i have only 14 days to recover before i go back to my job as cabin crew and even though people think we just stand around,we lift really heavy containers and bags and we have to stretch a lot with arms above the head, i am a shorty at only 1.63m! I also worry about opening and closing those heavy aircraft doors. So far, the pictures and experiences of others have helped me a great deal with regards as to what to expect.I like to know EVERYTHING, ignorance is NOT bliss in my case! Well,so my journey starts,if i can be of any help to anyone, let me know!
