All done !!
WORTH IT$9,000
My surgery was yesterday at 12pm at the hospital instead of in the the private clinic , due to some health issues , I just felt safer there. Originally I assumed I wouldn't be as pampered and well taken care of as in the private clinic as hospitals see such a huge over turn of patients all day. Boy was I wrong , everyone at the day surgery clinic was amazing, so tentative and welcoming, Dr.E came and marked me up, he was very kind ans reassuring, funny and personable, I have had a few surgeries before ( non-elective) and I know first hand not all surgeons are such , it doesn't make them bad just down to business, a few minutes later the o.r nurse came to get me and I went to the operating room, they hooked me up and were very nice , I wasn't nervous at all . Before I knew it they were waking me up, I was wheeled into recovery where I had a Popsicle and some ginger ale ... Which I thew up, then continued to throw up constantly after that , bad reaction to the anesthetic, I felt great, minus the nausea whenever I went to move . It's not the next day and beside some discomfort I have yet to take any of the prescription pain killers I was prescribed , just the antibiotics . I don't like taking narcotics or any type and generally have a good pain tolerance so I was prepared to just take the pain meds before bed , but even last night I was surprising fine . I was like is this it ? My pain was like a 4/10, hardly even pain just some pressure . Today I started to feel some pain but still not enough for me to even think of taking them , I'll just have some extra strength Tylenol. I'm very surprised at how good I feel , I can get up and down on my own . Go to the washroom on my own , made some toast , got dressed. ( carefully) the only real discomfort is on the side of the ribs, and my back. But a heating pad and ice packs are working wonders. All in all , not regrets so far , Dr.E and the whole day surgery team were amazing , nice , tentative , reassuring and calming . I couldn't speak more highly of them all. I'm so excited to see how the progress !

Bra question
My ps gave me a 34 D as my post op bra , and it's what they will put on me after surgery. The bra they gave me is a bit loose around the band , to accomidate swelling , i want to buy at least two more bras so I can switch between , well one is in the wash , I'm not sure what size to get . I'm getting 445cc , should I stick to the 34 D like the one my doctor gave me , or get a 32D ? And what about S,M,L ?? This is so confusing! My mind doesn't know how to shop for bras that need to actually fit !! Any help ladies ???

Honestly, I would ask your PS as he knows best :) But from my experience, the post op bra seemed huge before surgery, and fit perfectly after surgery. They know what they are doing. And if the band is too tight, it may not allow your implants to settle properly.
