First day back at work
I went back to work today and I'll be honest, I did not want to get out of bed. When I started getting ready I felt a little lightheaded but not bad. Driving was weird, when I turned the steering wheel, I could feel my pecs flex and almost felt like the implant was shifting or compressing underneath the muscle. I'm not sure if this is a normal feeling or if I'm just very in tune with muscle movements since I workout a lot, but it was a really weird feeling...not really painful, just weird. I was fine throughout the day, just the same back and lats pain that I've been mentioning. By the time I got home I felt exhausted even though I work at a desk and only stopped at the grocery store after work. I think a little swelling has gone down and the bruising seems to be dulling. You'll notice in the pics that the skin in between my breasts is pulled pretty tight, it doesn't lay flat like normal. I think the swelling there has gone down a little so hopefully it'll go back to normal as the implants settle and swelling dissipates.

Mentor Silicon 400cc - under the muscle
Hey Guys! so it's 5 days post op and I'm feeling almost back to normal. I stopped taking the pain meds yesterday (4 days post op) but am still taking glutamine, arnica and of course the prescribed antibiotics. Up until now, pretty much the lower half of my boobs were numb. I'm starting to notice that I'm gaining feeling back in my boobs, but there's still some numb spots. I wonder if this is normal or has anything to do with the way Dr. Joseph does his surgeries? Another thing I forgot to mention previously (but I'm sure you've read/heard before) is that the surgical bra is really annoying. It's tight and extremely itchy at the bottom where the incisions are.....hopefully I can change into a regular (wire free) bra this week. Another thing that I'm still trying to get used to is sleeping on my back and with a few pillows. Today I've been getting some pains on my side (lats....almost side boob) and they kind of feel like cramping? I haven't heard or read too much about back and side pains from the implants but I know I have some bruising there, so I'm not sure what the pain is. It's possible I'm a little dehydrated and that combined with having to lay like a mummy on my back is causing the cramping or muscles pains. Anyways, happy healing to all the other ladies that are in recovery!
