Worried?

Its been 7 days and nervous me picked away some of the tape and superglue...well now I'm nervous the incision will burst open again. I spoke with a friend and she says it looks good but still worried it may re open.

I am 22, 5 foot 6 inches, 185 pounds, originally a 36G.

Before the surgery I never wore a real bra, I always wore a sports bra to try to hide the fact I had big boobs. Plus, the sports bra seemed to decrease the back pain and spasms. I could always swim competitively without a problem, other than suits fitting weird. However, running and lifting was challenging. I always had to wear super small sports bras then pull the back as far down as it would go to prevent the girls from bouncing too too much. Plus around mile 3 my back would noticeably hurt as well as my shoulder blades from the strain holding myself up. Despite all the men in my life telling me I am slapping "God in the Face" with this surgery I went forward to make my life physically better.

Fortunately, tricare covered the surgery and I had the operation done August 9th 2017. I was hoping to go to B cups but I think ill settle out at D, maybe C if I am lucky.

I had two little hiccups before my surgery. First one was my doctor didn't want to take my breasts down to B cups because he thought it would be unflattering for me. Ladies, I am here to say if you want to go to a certain size don't let your doctor bully you into a different size. Like I said I probably will end up with Ds and I really wish he had removed more. I love small boobs and I think mine are still too big. I wish I had stood up for my self.

My second issue was while the doctor was drawing his markings an hour before surgery and after several nerve blockers, my heart rate dropped to 29 and my blood pressure went to 59 over 30. I basically blacked out and couldn't see or hear anything. I eventually came too and the doctor had me stand back up to finish the drawings.

I got both drains out 5 days after surgery, and well it was weird and gross to watch them get pulled out. Don't recommend watching for the ill-stomach. I also came off of the narcotics to drive myself to the appointment, recommend you have someone drive you so you can take pain medication.

I am currently a week past my surgery day and I can't wait to get back to work, running and swimming. I am still taking narcotics in the morning to help with pain and regular Tylenol in the afternoon and night time. My doctor said no sleeping on my side or stomach which is a downer. But I was cleared for walking and biking as a form of exercise.

Still not sure if it was worth the pain or not.... can't work or workout and my boobs are still big and not the same size even after surgery.
