4 months out... Is this capsular contraction?!

So I am just at 4 months post op. My right breast seems to have suddenly gotten much harder Nd higher on my chest. I'm freaking out and have scheduled a checkup with my surgeon for Wednesday... Please send positive vibes my way!!! I don't know when I'll be able to afford to get the problem fixed if it does turn out to be what I think.

11wks out MM w/BA & mini TT w/ contouring lipo


11 weeks post MM w/BA & mini TT & contouring lipo

Well I have had to finally accept the fact that my skin on my tummy is just gonna be stretched out looking. My belly button is still bruised and still a little hard but overall I am extremely happy with my outcome!! My boobies have gotten so soft and actually bounce and jiggle when I walk!! I was drying my hair (bent over and nude) the other day and my husband stopped shaving to take a look (& cop a feel??) from my side and was impressed with how natural my breast look and feel while I was in that position. He is constantly asking me to wear tank tops and right shirts with no bra... Which I now gladly do!! Here's a cpl pix...

I actually felt comfortable as I was pulling in to the parking lot of Dr. Tjelmeland's practice! The staff was all very friendly and outgoing in person and on the phone. I did not have to wait very long at all until the doctor and Cindy came in to discuss my particular wants/needs. He explained everything in a way that didn't seem foreign like some drs can do. He was great at answering any ??s I had w/o making me feel dumb for asking them. And u know he gets those same dang questions alllll the time. So it was nice that he took the time to make sure I understood what his opinion was and if I agreed. He took all kinds of measurements that neither of the other two drs I had consulted with did AND he told me the GREAT news that I only needed a mini TT unlike one of the others that said I needed all kinds of stuff done!! I left the consultation knowing that this guy was going to change my life. I went home and spoke with my husband... He had accompanied me to two other consults but was out of town this time. I told him that I had "found my surgeon" and I scheduled i think it was 4-5 weeks out. I couldn't believe it!! Cindy was awesome at informing me of what was going to happen the morning of surgery and what to do the night before all the things I needed. The nurse that walked me back was sooo sweet and had me laughing and comfortable right off the bat. The anesthesiologist (Dr. Malone) was the best anesthesiologist I have ever had (he was my 4th) and really helped me out post surgery when the pain meds weren't working bc of my pain condition. It's been about 6 weeks and I am scheduled to go in on Monday to see where I stand I recovery. All I can say is that I feel beautiful and I live the results so far! I cannot wait to see what it looks like in a year from now. I will definitely be spreading his name around!! And if I have the urge to get anything else nipped and tucked... Dr Tjemeland is the man I want in the OR!!
