My bra size was a 50M. I had 11 pounds of breast removed. In a few weeks after surgery my breasts had black scabs. The smell was horrible. I leaked green and yellow fluids for months. I was on antibiotics for 36 days. Doctor cut the black scab off in office. Nipple gone...Now I need 4-5 more surgeries

It's a bloody disgrace. Sue the arse off him. Can you imagine "Men" if they had their balls and [RS bleep] mutilated. Hell! They would end up in straight jackets. You are too young for this to happen to you. I'm annoyed at what I experienced and I'm 62. Get it sorted! Don't be afraid. All us women are gunning for you. Lots of love.

I see this was written about a year and a half ago. Are you still having pain?
February 18, 2015
Yes...i have tender spots in where my nipple was...sensations shoot through my breast...tightness never goes away...my right nipple feels like fire going through it

I dont want any pain meds...I took Loratabs for a bit. But I stay away from them...

Id seek legal advice on this one.no one should have to go through what you've went through

I tried..I am at a great place now..I am just dealing with what I have now..I struggle emotionally each day..But I pray each day that God gives me the strength to go through each day...Thanks for you concern and support...LOVE TO ALL...

Oh my gosh I am so very sorry for your suffering! I hope at least insurance is going to pay. Also that is only a small help. All the best to you

I'm so sad to see what you have gone thru :(
I know this is a very rare result but it's terrible when it happens to you.

you have been truly unlucky but hopefully future reconstruction surgery will help. there must have been some benefits to not carrying the 11lbs around any more?

Not carrying around 11 lbs has been wonderful...but I think i rather carry them around rather than hurt constantly...laying in bed is a challenge...I like to sleep on my stomach but I cannot raise my hands up to lay under pillow..

This is so scary and sad. I'm so sorry this happened to you.

This surgery has had its ups and downs...I cannot tell anyone not to get it done..I just want everyone to be aware of the risks. My husband has really been supportive during this.. He was and still is a boob man but he knows its not my fault. So if you are interested in a breast reduction go with your heart.. Don't go by the horror stories out her..including mine..My gut told me not to do it but I didn't listen....Sending my heart and thoughts with you..
