Surgery went excellent!

WORTH IT
So I have had huge breasts since I was about 14. I’m 25 and I underwent surgery last night. I’m so excited, even with my surgical bra still on, I can tell the difference. I literally feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. My only concern during this process was the anesthesia. Being put on a ventilator to breath was very scary to me, but I said a few prayers and trusted God. It was per surgeon preference, and he’s been in practice for 21 years so I guess I was as comfortable as I could be. I was a 38G and now I am a 38D (although I won’t be fitted for quite sometime, that’s what I requested). It’s currently 5:03 am and I had my surgery yesterday at 1:00 pm.. I arrived at 8:50 am , prepped at 10:50 am and was in surgery from 1:00pm until 5:00pm. Not exactly sure why it took that long but so far so good. I will post pics after my first shower later on today. I am on medications and sort of out of it and loopy but it’s not that painful, and I am not dizzy.. also my pain is being managed exceptionally well.. so with that being said I was walking around a bit, I am going to try and rest a while before it’s time to talk to the doctor and be discharged. Pictures soon!

I am having my surgery today at 2pm 18/7/18. I am a 30/32 JJ/K depending on bras. Going down to a C/D. How is your pain now? I am starting to get very nervous

It’s really not that painful. It becomes painful when you have the drain tubes in after about 5 days after the surgery because the insertion sights become irritates and the nerves don’t stay numb. But other than that it’s not that bad. I had my drains taken out yesterday and I’m just sore, that’s all. So Just make sure you take your pain meds if you need them.

I’m in a lucky position where I don’t need the drains.. almost 24hours on from procedure and I’m a bit sore but it’s not bad! The worst part for me was my reaction to the anaesthesia after waking, I was sick every time I came back from the toilet and any big movement.. but I seem to be over that now

Night after surgery

sharaina03
So I didn’t get any rest last night because I don’t sleep on my back. I’m sore but not in lots of pain. My doctor’s CRNPA prescribed me with percocets and so it’s taking care of the pains. I spent the night in the hospital. The arm that I had my IV in is super sore, so sore they did an X-ray on my arm to check for blood clots. They found nothing, but it feels like they had my arm bent into a pretzel lol. I was hoping for a D cup but my breasts are still hard and not settled BUT they do look like a B cup right now lol. Hopefully that’s not the case! Pictures will be tomorrow after m first shower!

Congratulations! They look great so far. They will feel tiny at first but they do look like a reasonable size for you!!

Thank you so much. And hopefully when I get my drains removed it is painless as yours were. I’ll upload some more pictures tomorrow, My steri strips are starting to come off of my nipples.
