42 Years Old and Mother of 2 (Size 34 DDD). I'm Excited and Nervous About my Upcoming Breast Reduction Surgery Aug 20th. - FL

Thank you! No, I didn't get insurance to cover my BR. I'm not sure how much my PS removed but if I had to guess about 400. I think my new bra size is a full C or small D.

I'm doing great! I resumed normal activities 2 weeks post-op. I had anxiety as well, but now that I'm on the other side it's not as painful as I imaged. I only took Vicodin 3 times...After I woke up from surgery, the 1st and 2nd night. Really for me the worst part of it was feeling tired from my body working so hard to heal. I'm very happy with my result! My first reaction to my breast right after surgery was oh my gosh they are small...but the next day I said no they are just right. It's a shocked to go from such a large breast to a normal size. I hope you have a smooth surgery and recovery!! :)

Like, like, like...... ;)

Take care of yourself and you'll be fine. So glad your pain is minimal.

Thank you! I feel the same way....I can't believe my surgery is tomorrow morning!! The only blood test for me was a finger prick at my pre op to check my irons level and I also needed a recent mammogram. Best of luck as well!

Hi, first, so happy & excited for you for your upcoming BR surgery. Secondly, having gone through this process myself on July 17th, just want to reassure you that you will be just fine. I was home 1 hr after the surgery immediately after all my vital signs were cleared. Yes to your blood test etc questions, 2 weeks prior to the surgery I had blood test; blood pressure & ECG done at my PS clinic. I believe some patients gets theirs done in the hospital. Hope this answers your questions. Will be thinking of you on Sept 8. Good Luck :))
