12 days post op, I feel great. The problems I encountered are: severe itching..I'm allergic to the sterile strip for sure..doc removed them at 5 days. Swelling, particularly the right breast. I didn't ice properly, my fault..take heed. Also, getting the implant in that breast took a little more work. In the end though, I am very happy with the result. I experienced no pain, only a little soreness and absolutely no nausea. I went with 400cc over the.muscle and I realize that with my frame I could not have gone bigger. Dr. Philip.Grubbs did an amazing job and I highly recommend him for BAs. I will post pictures today. Oh! And my man LOVEs them!!

Than God, my very swollen right breast is looking more normal. My followup appt is today. The swelling could have been avoided if I had iced properly...i should have iced more! Everyone remember that..ice, ice, ice!

Well, maybe re the icing...I had my 4th revision(due to age not problems) and for me, the ice helped with pain(didn't have much of that) more than anything so I had lots of bags of frozen peas which I kept on for days..30 min on 30 min off...I still welled up like the proverbal COW,,,not kidding here...also had post surgical bra that was very tight and Ace wraps over that!. my rt breast remained more swollen than the left for a lot longer..so sometimes it just doesn't matter what you do,,,they/it have a mind of their own.

I typed this once, must not have posted first time.. hope it's not a repeat! I am 4 days post-op and I think swelling of my right breast in particular has subsided a little..still has a ways to go. Bruising is still bad but slowly improving. I feel great!
