Breast Reduction Journey with Dr. Ellen Janetzke
ORIGINAL POST
Breast Reduction Journey!
Chant25December 17, 2020
I've been wanting a breast reduction since about middle school. I've waited a long time mostly because I was scared I wouldn't get approved and secondly because I wanted to be sure my breasts were done growing. I'm 19 and I am scheduled to get a breast reduction with Dr. Ellen Janetzke. I'm a 38DDD and I'm hoping to be a B cup to a small C! I will post before picture the day before my surgery and post along my journey.

I haven’t taken any pain pills. I tried to take one by dissolving it in water and chasing it with a caramel frappe but I didn’t feel a difference (this was the norco). I believe I am a c cup now.
After I woke up from surgery, I was given apple juice and it was like the best feeling ever after not being able to eat. However, the nurse gave me saltine crackers to eat and after two bites I threw up MASSIVELY! It was all over my new boobs and I even got some up my nose. They had to change me out and put new gauze on me.
I haven’t been in MASSIVE pain, it hurts to try to get up sometimes from the lying down position but I work my way around it and when I can’t I call someone to pull me up forward and then I sit up that way.
I feel zaps here and there in my boobs/nipples and they are swollen, but all in all I think I’m okay. I plan to check in with Dr. Ellen to tell her about the itching I had when I took the norco. I will add better before and after pictures later on maybe in a week or so when I feel better.
-quick tip: a recliner would make life a lot easier

Rough Morning
Chant25March 9, 2021
It’s been four days since my surgery and I haven’t showered yet (I know ew). I tried this morning, but then I decided to just take a bird bath. That was also a fail as I started to feel woozy. After about ten minutes of feeling extremely hot, I threw up. Afterwards I changed my clothes and got back in bed. I feel better, but idk if I should stop taking the norcos. I’m definitely going to update Dr. Ellen.
