Have to explant due to size being too big and causing complications :(
I have inflammation around a pressured nerve due to my implants being too large for my frame.
Considering the dr suggested 475cc instead of 500 I really thought I'd be okay. I wanted a full c or d cup and ended up a DDD.. Can't lay on my stomach, and when I lay on my back my breasts migrate so far down my side boob they're pretty much in my armpits. My side walls and muscles weren't strong enough to to keep them where they needed to be bc dr created pockets that were too big. My original crease on one side never smoothed out either bc one dropped too far down, not symmetrical at all.
After a consult with a surgeon in my state, he recommends me to explant entirely, or allow him to create new pockets and place smaller implants in.
I didn't go through all this, and paying for an entire other surgery to have no breaks at all so I will be buying new implants.
I Truly wish I had gone to a surgeon that had more to say on size, or had the vectra imaging system to see what size would be best for my body. Now I have to pay thousands more to have another surgery not even one year after my BA.
Dr also suggests going over the muscle rather than under as I did before bc right now when I flex my arms or chest at all they animate, and it's not cute. At all.
I'm bummed, sad, frustrated and still not sure what size to go. New surgeon suggests 400-375 cc(down from 475) I want to be a full c cup but it's so hard to predict. I know someone who got 375 and they ended up a DDD.. I got 475 and am DDD... I know another who got 500cc and is only a DD. Arghhh?!
Such a frustrating situation. All I can say is I wish I'd gone to a surgeon who had more to say about size be now my health is at risk bc he didn't.

5 days post op
Back home from Miami. What a whirl wind!
Went back to work today and only made it half way before going home. So tired.
So far i am happy with my results. I am fitting into size 34-36 c&d cup sport bras, so its hard to say how big ill be.
Dr Krau gave me 475cc Allergan silicone implants in duel plane.
The compression band sucks so bad and if not for it id be almost pain free right now.
All in all its worth it so far. Although if id have known everything i know now id have spent the extra money for better pre and post op care.
