So after years of complex decision making whether I should or should not have BA, I finally made a choice. I've always wanted boobs anyway as I am flat as a board. Considering my weight and body, I'm out of proportion. I can't wait for my op! I'm having my procedure in OHM in Hammersmith and I'm looking forward to my results. ALthough I wanted bigfer than I was recommended, my structure is not allowing me to. :( I'm just hoping everything will result good. Updated on 25 May 2019: Some post op pics. I will provide further narrative later. Currently, in pain and I feel very dizzy when I stand up. I am just happy that I would be able to eat as it was all I can think of while I was in the recovery room :) Updated on 26 May 2019: Pain is only on the incision site. The rest is discomfort over the chest. No nausea / vomitting. I was able to travel back to my local town. I was advised to take my pain medications regularly on the 1st 72 hours, but I am only taking the NSAIDS and antibiotic for the inflammation. Updated on 27 May 2019: So, 25th of May was my BA surgery. I fasted before midnight and unfortunately, I've reactes to the chicken that I've ordered. I just took some antihistamine in the morning. 09:30 was my admission time and I was taken to a clinic room to have a urine sample (to make sure I'm not pregnant) and accomplish a pre-operative checklist, completed by a nurse who is not as friendly/cordial as me when I'm taking care / asking pre-op questions to my patients (I'm a surgical nurse myself). I was asked to change to a gown. Then, the anesthetist came in to complete his anesthetic review (I'm sorry forgot his name, but he was lovely). After that, I was directed to a 3-stretcher ward area where I can leave my belongings. (I thought I'm going to wait long, so I brought a book, but well, I took an antihistamine, so I'm a bit sleepy to read anything.) Then, Dr Joffily came in and I followed him back to the clinic room to answer some more questions, have some shot of before photos and surgical markings. Around 10:30-11:00, I was brought to the theatre and was asked to lie down on the table. (That bear-hugger sure is warm and comfy and I just want to sleep). The anesthetist inserted a gauge 20 (pink) cannula (I was a hoping a gauge 18/green one really) and administered 2 medications. 1st one is I think an anesthetic and 2nd one is antibiotic. I closed my eyes and fell into deep sleep. I woke up around 13:30, and the first thing I want is the toilet! (The nurses were saying, they are going to help me later because I might wobble and fall - yeah I know that). Fine, I understand, but I want to go to the toilet. The uncordial nurse commented that I took a long time to wake up and that I was removing my oxygen mask and fiddling with my cannula while sleeping. (I laughed and thought, I've seen that before from experience). Then, another nurse who is more cordially-inclined than the other one assisted me to the toilet (finally!) and administered tramadol 100mg (I took a peek because they were just doing a dual sign off for it and not informing me of what type of pain relief I'm having). I remember seeing Dr. Joffily for a minute, asking how I am. I just said I'm okay and no pain at all. Around 14:00, I'm sitting up and drinking water and munching some biscuits. I informed my friend that I'm ready to be discharged in half an hour. The nurse provided me take home meds and instructions. 1430-1440, I was discharged finally and excited to get some real food! So Day 2 post op, more swelling and some pain 5/10 on right incision site. I took the courage to shower in a very awkward position because I can't stand my oily hair and I'm not supposed to raise my arms. I wrapped cling film around my chest area to make sure the dressings will not get wet and I am successful with that. Now, I feel very fresh and happy. I'm having post-op booby greed and I realised that if I've gone bigger, everybody will notice. (I wore really padded bras). Some people may have lost their appetite, but me, damn it was huuugeee!!! No nausea or anything! I can gobble any food out there! Tried to measure myself from 34A then a whooping 34D. But, I know it will become smaller once the swelling subsides. Updated on 31 May 2019: Right Breast is not that numb anymore. Incision pain is less. Today, I went back to clinic for wound care. The nurse just cleaned up my wounds and placed another dressing. My left breast incision is healed well, but the right incision, well not as fast as the other one. I did noticed that there will be something on my right breast incision as the pain did not subside for a couple of days post op and that it was numb until last night night (except for the wound area). I was told to take it easy which is hard as being on bed rest kills me and I'd rather walk around the house. Hoperfully, my right incision would heal sooner. Updated on 28 Jun 2019: So, my nurse appointments at one health was very comfortable. It took 3 appointments before all the ends of the stiches were cut off. I'm just patiently waiting for the ladies to settle, even though I am having boob greed at the moment. (I really wanted to shop for new bras, but I just tried some for fun. Currently, I am 34D in this one, but everything is dependent on the brand. Updated on 23 Jul 2019: This is really depressing. Almost 2 months post op and it has shrunk big time. I did have a second consultation before my op that I wanted to go bigger, not caring if its fake looking or not. Rather unforunate and frustating. Updated on 15 Oct 2019: Well, due to work, I cannot find time for my post-surgical appointment. I am getting annoyed with One Health with their lack of effort despite being post op for months. Not totally happy with the result still and I didn't get the size that I wanted. So the question is when will ai be able to wear push-up bras as ai am unable to have surgeon appointments yet? Updated on 20 Oct 2019: Still having booby greed, but I'll just have to work it. Scars are healed and just waiting for it to fade. So, I just uploaded some photos for update. I also find it weird that my breasts are kind of far apart (as I really used to have a flast chest) when lying down. I have asked a friend and she mentioned that it's normal. I find wearing sweetheart dresses makes my breasts look fuller even without a bra which somehow made me happy.
