I'm in constant pain in my back even making dinner will make my back go out for 2 to 3 days are used to be very active before my hysterectomy three years ago and since then due to the miss dosage of estrogen that they gave me four times the amount anyone and should be on they grew from a double D to a double J

It all hit me like a ton of bricks threes days before where I almost backed out.
Glad I didn't. Get your quality of life.
There are some who given the opportunity would love to do this. This is your chance!

Made it!!
My surgery was yesterday. I had to be there at 6 a.m. so I literally had maybe one hour of sleep. I was so excited waiting in the waiting room that when they called my name I rushed and kissed my family and literally skipped back with a nurse. I wanted to have a postive attitude going into surgery! I havr been wanting this for so long and i was damed if i was going to act like a scaredy cat!! My anesthesiologist was literally Santa Claus!! Looked just like him which made me feel so good! They took two and a half pounds out of each breast. I did wake up in some pain but they kept putting Demerol in my IV til it stopped. Spent about an hour in recovery. The nurses help me get dressed and complimented me that I didn't wear leggings like most women do because they're harder to get on someone that's recovering from surgery. I wore black cotton paloozo type pants. Very flowy. I walked alot when I got home and did too much with my arms because I'm paying for it this morning!! The numbing medication has definitely worn off lol I was a 36 JJ
I have zero regrets!!
I was told not to mess with anything over the weekend! I help 100% confident with Dr. Urquhart

I'm a overflowing DDD, back pain, migraines and having a hysterectomy didn't help either. My surgery is July 6, my husband leaves for deployment training the day before so my daughter is taking me. I'm so excited but getting nervous too. I bruise easily and anesthesia makes,me,sick. I know it will be worth it in the long run..any good advice??

Make sure you have around the clock help for atleast a week. Even if you feel better try to just rest and do as minimal things around the house as possible. Don't think a few days after surgery that you feel great and go out and do a bunch of stuff because I've seen so many girls do that and end up with infections and in tremendous amount of pain!! Make sure you have the right postop bra. One that will not irritate your incision line underneath your breast. I believe I posted a picture of one that has been a lifesaver for me! Do what your PC says. Mine told me to keep it clean and dry I've seen so many girls on a lot of Facebook breast reduction groups putting Neosporin or some type of ointment and nine times out of 10 they all end up with infections clean and dry is the best way to take care of your incisions and just leave them alone and let them heal.

I can relate. I am 5 days post op. Had both TT and BR. The BR went well and my tubes are out. Just some light bruising . I can tell you you will not regret it. Based on the back pain alone this is a good decision . I don't even have back pain right now when I had it every day.
My breasts are actually in the right place now. are doing the right thing for you! Stay strong and keep focussed on why you began the journey. All will be well.!
On a side note, I can't believe they gave you the wrong doseage!
