Continuing to heal!

WORTH IT
I'm continuing to heal wonderfully. I have been massaging my scars with vitamin E oil. I had a follow-up last week and everything looks reallly good. I'm still getting a few zingers but overall doing well.
I go back for a follow-up in February 2014.
Merry Christmas to you all.

I'm doing great! 7 1/2 weeks out and I feel wonderful. Mild soreness under both breast when I move the wrong way, but nothing I can't tolerate. I'm finally able to sleep on my stomach again, but not all night long. I've not had anymore neck, back or shoulder pain. I'm very happy I had this surgery.

Thank you! I have not regrets at all about having this surgery. I have no more back, neck or shoulder pain and my clothes fit so much better. I'm anxious to purchase a bra but still have some swelling (mainly in the right breast).

Wow, you look great! I just had my BR on Dec. 11. I too feel like my stomach is bloated. I'm still getting used to the smaller size, but I know I will be very glad that I did this. I just had a doctor's appointment today and he wants to see me back in a month. I am encouraged by how well you've done!!!

Boob envy lol I'm afraid once the tape comes off I'm going to freak out over the scar

I thought so too. But it was smooth sailing. The tape came off smoothly and I only had one open wound from doing too much.
