Three Week PO Appointment!
Had my three week PO appointment today. PS said everything looks good and I go back in three months. She's very happy with the size and shape and so am I. She said to continue to wear soft, seamless bras and sports bras and I should be able to get measured for size at my next appointment. They're finally starting to soften up and I got to see my nipples for the first time today! They're finally where they should be and I'm very happy with their size! All-in-all, a great appointment and I can't wait to see how much better they look as they heal and soften up!

Two Weeks Post-Op!!
So, yesterday was two weeks since my BR. I'm doing pretty good, moving around a little easier, and I actually cooked a good meal last night with minimal pain. I'm still taking it easy though because I can feel difference in pain and energy levels when I over do it. I've also started feeling the sharp shooting pains (both breasts and nipples) that is supposed to be the nerve endings healing and my nipples are really painful if I don't keep them covered. I've also started feeling pain in both breast just by rubbing my fingers over them or touching them. No pressure, just contact. It almost feels like my skin on my breasts was burned and I'm touching the wound. It's really weird and I haven't read anything about that says this is ok. Anyone else experience this? Also, part of my left breast is still numb. Can't feel a thing. Normal at this point?
I have my second post-op appointment on Thursday so I'm going to talk to my PS about all of this and hopefully she'll remove my tape and I'll get to see how my incisions are healing. I'm still very happy with my size and the way my breast look and they're finally starting to soften up. Very excited to see the end result and I'm still very happy with making this desision!
On top of the pain and soreness from my BR, I think I have at least one herniated disks in my c-spine. I have sharp, intense pain in my neck, left shoulder, and all the way down my left arm. I can tell its a nerve because of the type of pain it is plus I have numbness, tingling, and weakness in my arm. My doctor prescribed me a topical pain reliever and I've been using Biofreeze, Icy Hot, heating pad, ice, and pain meds but so far nothing helps with the pain. My Norco does take the edge off but doesn't relieve it completely. I'm waiting for x-ray results to see what the next step is. Hopefully there's a treatment that doesn't involve another surgery. My left breast and under arm is more painful and I think it has something to do with this.
