I'm loving my new girls!!! - Baton Rouge, LA

Me either!!!!

My surgery is scheduled on the 29th. I can't wait also but I keep thinking about the anesthesia part. Does that scare you? I don't care about pain I just get nervous being put to sleep

I have had a partial hysterectomy and a tubal ligation, I don't know if anesthesia is something you can get used too but I am not worried, lol! I was worried about getting sick afterwards but my doc routinely prescribes a nausea patch that you put on before surgery and don't take off for 24 hours. I've never used that before but hoping it does the trick, vomiting and dry heaving is no fun in general but with sore and swollen boobies it would be miserable!! Good luck on the 29!!!

I'm nervous too!!!! Stinks huh? U try to keep busy but I still have trouble sleeping. Boobs are in my mind all day long. My preop is today!!! Excited for that

I have been trying to get as much sleep as possible now because I figure sleep wont be so easy the first week or so but with boobs on the brain constantly it isn't easy. I lay there thinking about how I'm going to sleep on my back, what they will look or feel like, how much pain I will be in and how long I will be in it, will my clothes still fit.... Then I finally go to sleep and have crazy dreams about boobs. I'm just ready to get it over with so all this worrying and obsessing will go away, I know it will turn into a different worry once I get them but I think it will be easier. Good luck at your preop, mine was on the 2nd, so I wont see my doc again until day of. I'm also still wondering if I should go a little bigger than I have "decided" so I don't end up with boob greed, SO many decisions.....

Omg it is soooo nice to see someone else is a stressball like me. My sleep is getting shorter and shorter. I have a lot of people and my dr saying go a little bigger than u think u want. He says most common redo is for girls who wished they went tad bigger. I am worried about looking fat with them. And I don't want to look like a [RS bleep] star haha! I just want this done with also. I had 2 c sections this I'm sure is easier but the thought if general anesthesia is freaking me out too. I love this site of females commenting in their experience. I would love to meet girls in person who are experiencing same. I'm sure we will look back thinking why did we stress ourselves out. I think we are nervous excited and anxious all at the same time!!!!'

I have a very high pain tolerance (or so I like to think I do), I had all three of my children naturally- no pain meds at all whatsoever. I also have plenty of tattoos that I have literally slept through, and piercings are nothing to me. I always get myself worked up before getting a new tattoo or piercing in anticipation of the pain, then I am pleasantly surprised because it doesn't hurt as much as I thought it would. I'm hoping this BA is that way and I am working myself up for nothing. I have never had a real problem with anesthesia, but I have kids to think about now and the "what if's" if I don't wake up... What size are you considering? I'm planning on 400cc's but thinking maybe I should go up to 450 so I'm not disappointed, but like you said I don't want to look like a [RS bleep] star (although hubby may like that, lol). Can these next 6 days pass by in a flash so I wake up on the other side of the road to recovery...

Anesthesia is awesome. I had 3 surgeries in 2013. Hernia, implants & foot surgery(bone spurs). The foot surgery scared me the most because she was only going to numb my foot & put me in a twilight sleep! I feared I would feel everything! But once on the OR, I answered a couple questions & next thing I knew I was waking up in recovery! Best sleep I ever got! ;) Have no fear!! Anesthesia is great!!

I will telling you why I am stressing. I got silicone breast implants in the late 90's. I loved them and they looked amazing. The last two years I have become deathly ill and have spent $$$$ going from one doctor to another..all saying something is very wrong but we don't know what. Finally I went to Dr. Daniel ARKFELD at Keck Hospital and he diagnosed me w silicone breast disease from leakage and I have silicone thru out my upper body. DR. Susan KOLB is going to do the explantation surgery which cost over $10,000 but she is the only doctor Inwill even consider for this as it is harder to explantation than in plant. I don't want to discourage you but have an MRI after every mammogram or every 2 to 3 years. Take an anti fungal before taking antibiotics. Order Dr Kolb's book THE NAKED TRUTH so you are aware of what can happen in your body. I wish someone had informed me. I have to be put under for approx 6 hours for a very major surgery to save my life from all the damage the toxicity had done. DR. KOLB does breast implants but also educates you on what you are dealing w having a foreign substance full of toxic liquid in your body. I always thought this can never happen to me... I am married to a doctor, have always felt great w my implants and could never put 2 n 2 together when I became so ill, until about 20 doctors later Dr. ARKFELD, a rheumatologist knew exactly what was wrong .

Just finished preop we are doing 350 saltines filled to 400cc. I feel good. My doc said stop stressing it's easy :).

I hope you r doing saline...much safer!,

Yeah, its your body and you want to do it and have the funds then no one should be able to say anything! Good luck!

He is doing inframammary (in the crease below the breast) he said he doesn't like to mess with the nipple to lessen the chance of loss of sensation and he felt the arm out is a dirty area to have a healing incision, which makes sense!
