David A. Gilbert, MD (retired)

So I went it for my last conversation with by surgeon and he fill that a free nipple graft is the best option for me. I am not sure on what to do my surgery is July 8 2016. I'm 31 with no kids. I would like to a least try breast feeding but that's not possible with the technique. I'm 5'2 160lbs last bra I brought was a 40ddd. Any suggestions Updated on 13 Jul 2016: So I had been thinking about having a breast reduction for the last 2-3 years. I went in for my first visit with Dr. Gilbert (hauge center). The office submitted my paper work and I was approved in a week. My surgery was schedule on July 8. I was so nervous. Dr. Gilbert did an amazing job. We talked about free nipple graft but I didn't want that procedure done. After my surgery I was ok a little sore the ride home was awful. Saturday July 9th second day after my surgery was the worst day ever. I was in so much pain I could not move I could not eat I was just so sore and in so much pain my temp was 102. Sunday July 10th was a little better I tried to get out of bed and walk around so I wouldn't get blood clots. Monday I went in for a follow-up appointment he then took my drains out with her a lot. I go back next Monday for another follow-up. I have been trying to wean myself off of their narcotics because I'm kind of bloated and I haven't had a bowel movement. After my surgery I felt so much relief on my neck and my back and my shoulders were all my pain was. He informed me that he removed a thousand off each breast. I'll give you more updates as they come so far I'm doing better I got out of the house and went to the grocery store I didn't lift anything though. I haven't really had a full appetite I've only been eating applesauce and fruit cups in grapes I tried to cook real food and then I just can't eat a lot of it so it goes to waste has anyone else been having that issue. I also noticed a little bloating in the tummy area has anyone else experienced that or if anyone has any suggestions to help out with that I would greatly appreciate it thank you. Updated on 23 Aug 2016: I'm so upset and uncomfortable more so I'm frustrated with my healing process it's so bad at this point I don't know what to do. Updated on 30 Aug 2016: Second surgery schedule for September 7. Updated on 8 Sep 2016: Had surgical debridement surgery yesterday September 7th with Dr. Mancoll of va beach,va.
