This is my second time around. I had a breast...

This is my second time around. I had a breast reduction twelve years ago, went down to a D cup, after getting pregnant my breast grew back to a whopping 36h cup. So here I go again with severe back and neck pain and under breast rash. I am paying out of pocket because my insurance company did not approve my procedure. This is so worth it for me to get this done.
This site and people reviewing their experiences has helped tremendously, so thank you.

Yes definitely ask for the smallest size because they do get bigger for most after pregnancy. My doctor did not give me the smallest size because he said he feared loss of nipple sensation. I really don't care about that and I told my p.s. about that.

I have a quick question, does the procedure stop you from breast feeding? Thanks

less than 24hrs to the new boobies, getting a bit nervous but more excited. I got my supplies, thanks for the tips. My p.s. prescribed me Ultram for pain and zofran for nausea as I have a problem with most narcotics. I'm making Jamaican style chicken and veggie soup to section out for first few days. My daughter will be my helper, I am very thankful for that.

Well today was surgery day, got to the outpatient center at 6:15, nurse was amazing at starting the iv...gave me a bolus of normal saline..p.s. came in and made his drawings, spoke to the anesthesiologist...last thing I remember was lying on the bed in O.R..
Woke up in recovery room..minimal pain...hurts more to move...I got real dizzy when when I sat up because my blood pressure got low..had to stay an additional 2hrs until that was better..the Tramadol and zofran are working good so far..
Overall not bad..did not see the boobies yet, due to bandages. I also have two drains that will be emptied three times a day if full and less time if not. I have my post op visit on 12/26/13..
Thank you ladies for the well wishes..pictures to come..
