Hello, It's me again. How are u guys doing?
I'm trying to be patience with my healing, and is not always easy as u all of us know. My main problem is my incisions, specially the areola one. No matter where I go,(magazine, youtube, here) everybody say the same....'It's too early, you've to wait'. So here I'm 3 weeks and I'm getting better everyday, but still afraid to not get the right results with my scar.....:(

I've using the Scarway silicone sheet, and so far so good. I've notticed that my scar got a little bit flater with the silicone sheets. I use all day and night. The instruction sais to use for 12 hours. Any one here w/ dark scar? I think my IFM scar is getting dark. I dont know what to do with that, any advice?

I think you are looking great. I too feel like it is taking forever to get used to my new breasts and the weight of them. I think being patient is the worst part. I do think it will heal beautifully. But if it is making you feel very uncomfortable i think you should call your PS or the nurses and maybe they could help reassure you. Hope you feel better soon! Xoxox hugs

agree with Lynn300, from I heard and read from many ladies here and elsewhere, patience is key here. I encourage you to stay positive and call your PS for further reassurance. I did see improvements on the latest pics and I think it will only get better. Good luck to you! take care

Liver - yellow skin- fatigue

I had my BA on 10/6 and since than I look a little bit yellow/pale also fatigue. Does the anesthesia couse that? Or the pain medication? Anesthesia affect the liver?

Hi everyone!
I was think to come here and update my 'diary' but I didnt. I found hard to concentrate my attention in something. I had couples question but I was looking for the answer and they're not accurate. Every doctor has their own point of view, and philosophy bla bla bla.

I'm doing pretty good specially after de second day when I stoped with the pain killer pills and decided to manage my pain on my own. I had visited my Dr and he said I was okay. But one thing still bad, "I feeling so tired", I cant do anything! Everything make me tired, no necessary sleep, but tired.

I washed my hair on 3th day, I cooked some food, I walked a little bit, but I definitely not 100% yet. I think it is normal.

I'll keep in touch, Thanks!
