I had my surgery yesterday early in the morning. I was there from 7am to about 11:30ish am. Didnt take too long. It was the first time I had ever been put under anesthesia so I was very scared. I woke up in the recovery room and ouch! Felt the pain for sure. I was very drowsy. Kept falling back to sleep. There was someone with me the whole time as I rested. When I woke up, she gave me water, crackers, and my first oxycodone. It was hard to eat because I was so sleepy and out if it. She brought me to a chair to see if I was walking correctly. She put waterproof bandages over everything the doc put on me so I could shower without getting them wet. She took of the surgical bra to do so. It was hard to tell what they'd look like because they're up so high. I don't have any sensation in my nipples or bottom of the breast right now. I'm told that should be normal and feeling will return. I got Natrelle Allergan 420cc anatomically shaped textured implants under the muscle. I haven't had a chance to see them yet. I have a surgical bra on and bandages. The bandages come off at my post op appointment next week. Hopefully they will drop a little bit more by next Wednesday when everything comes off so I can see them! I also got lipo in that gross armpit fat area that so many women have. It's apparently breast tissue.!? I'm definitely bruised in that area. He said to try to eat a lot of pineapple to help with brusing and swelling. As I read and watched videos of other women's experiences, I realized that day 2 was going to be the worst for pain. It's day 2 now and I woke up at about 6:30 and took 2 oxycodones. I have ice on the area. Hopefully by taking 2 pills, it won't be as bad. I will update and give more pics as the days pass.

The pain meds can't seem to keep up. I'm in the same amount of pain as yesterday. Hopefully I will feel a little better tomorrow.
