10 Years of Chronic Back/neckpain. Hoping Breast Reduction Will Help - Austin, TX

Hello lovely ladies!!
Thought I'd update a bit, I'm feeling super great! Neck pain still gone, back pain there but less. My son comes back tomorrow..hes been gone this whole time! I still have a spot on the right areola that doesnt seem to have closed. It has a sort of like knot there...maybe a stitch? Everywhere else has closed up and I'm starting on scar sheets.
So here are my quesrions...if anyone has thoughts PLEASE let me know!
1) righty has an odd ripple (nope, not nipple, ripple :) on the inside part of the breast. I tried to post a pic but I'm not sure if you can see it. Its almost like 4 waves of skin. Not huge but I can see it. Anyone had this?
2) The scar sheets say to use for 12 hours. My issue is that I am always warm and perspiring. I cant step out without breaking a sweat, and the strips don't work well with that. Maybe I should wear at night?
3) has anyone used scar gel? It has been suggested to use the gel when not using sheets...
4) I asked about bio oil and my doc said that scar sheets are the best. Do you guys have luck using bio oil also?
That's it...hope you all are doing well!

I think today is my first real day feeling semi normal. I finally took a real shower, that was awesome! I put a stool in the shower so I could shave my legs. It felt so great, however had to lay down a bit after... spent too much energy :)
Here is my lefty side. It looks 100 percent better even than yesterday, and doesn't bleed really bad when exposed. Also, the sports bra feels better on as I dont need the larger absorption pads on it! Yay!

So, drains removed on monday. The removal didnt hurt at all, however I had a horrible reaction to the tape used over the drains (not the glue on the incisions, thank God). Both sides but mainly the left blistered up and ripped open when the tape was removed. Poor Dr. Chike's assistant felt so bad doing it. Doc just said aside from the reaction to the tape everything looked great and not to shower for a few more days due to the open sores. I got my hair washed yesterday at the salon so im ok with sponging. I made an appointment for next week and he sent me off. I've been changing the dressings twice a day. If it wasn't for the sides bleeding I think I'd be much better off. VERY sore and swollen and ITCHY. I finally can post a couple of pics...not my left side tho. I really love these gals and think it's going to turn out great!
So here is why its good to document your journey...I have had a HORRIBLE time sleeping. I first thought that I was having back spasms. I feel like im just getting to sleep and then, whack, my body shudders and I violently wake up. Ive had spasms before and am on meds for them at night, but the past three ir so days the level has increased. Earlier in my review I had mentioned that the doc told my parents that I 'shuddered' a couple of times while I was out and the anesthesia person said it was ok. So I wonder if there is a connection? Anyone else have this issue? I was able to get to sleep around 6am and got a good 3 or 4 hours straight. It's the rem disruption that gets to me. So im still taking it easy and making sure my sides are slathered with neosporen! Happy healing everyone!!
