Tired and Achy
I dare say I feel worse now than the first few days after surgery. I'm super tired after basic activities (light housework, grocery shopping) and achy all over. I'm concerned about the "anchor" wounds and regret helping the under boob steri strips off. I will try to see if I can get my PS appt moved up from Thursday. I did have a terrible cold last week that took about 5 days to fight off so maybe it's the residual effects of that. I hope I don't have an infection brewing. Anybody else feel super tired after 2.5 weeks? Any advice on how long this exhaustion lasts, things to do to help feel energized? Thankfully I still have 3.5 weeks off from work...I wouldn't be able to make it thru a 8 hour day without taking several breaks!
still healing
It's day 13 post op and I think everything looks good. The are a couple of open sore spots under my breasts that I plan to re-cover with steri strips tonight. The original under boob steri strips were disintegrating, stinky so I helped them finish coming off last night. I probably shouldn't have but I really think they were ready. I'm definitely more itchy lately but not too awful. I have been able to sleep on my sides for several days now, each day I feel more comfy. I think the swelling is going down too. Best to all of you girls!
Day 8 post op
I've been delayed in posting my day 8 update due to battling a very bad head cold. Starting to think it's a modified flu (I had flu shot back in October). Anyway, I'm doing great ladies! Saw Dr. Grasse on 3/6, 8th day after surgery. She said everything looked fine but wants to see me back sooner in 2 weeks since I had such a large reduction. She replaced a couple of steri strips, said I was wearing a proper bra (fruit of loom front hook cotton sports bra Walmart $9.94!!!) I'm still impressed and satisfied with the results, no major issues or pain. I can't express enough that Dr. Grasse was the right surgeon for me. She worked wonders! Starting to get a few zingers but not many, I have full feeling in the right breast/nipple but not in the left...yet. I'm not worried, praying it will return eventually. If not, one is better than none. Good luck to everyone still waiting and best wishes to those in recovery with me!
Provider Review
Dr. Grasse
Dr. Elizabeth Grasse is highly skilled, compassionate. I was referred to her by another satisfied reduction patient. I'm so happy I found her. She is professional and thoroughly knows her subject matter. I was concerned before my initial visit that the office would be a bit pretentious given the location but everyone was very nice. Highly recommend to anyone within a 1 state radius.
