WORTH IT
I've been on this site for about a month now I always had large breasts as I can remember I'm now a size 34 G and I suffer from Neck shoulder tension headaches and some back pain I have my consolation on April 14 with the PS three of my coworkers referred me to see Dr.niki she's a board-certified PS she examined me and took pictures of my breast to send to the insurance company. Well I don't have insurance through my job yet but I do have a il state medical card and on May 6 I received a call from her Cordinator and she told me I was approved for the surgery YES!!! & I don't half a co-pay it's 0$ I'm so thankful ???? and my pr-op is May 27 I'm a little nervous now that I have my day for the surgery but I know everything will be away I'm praying for everything to go ok & a speedy recovery I'm taking off 3weeks of work I'm a housekeeper at a hotel so hopefully I can heal and return to work I'll be back to update my pr-op than surgery!!

Congrats!!!! I am 4 weeks post opt and I dont work Im disabled due to 4 neck and 3 lumbar surgerys. If you go back to work at 3 weeks WOW You might want to consider some NexiCare 3M blue paper tape for sensitive skin I just do normal stuff and I feel it has kept me from breaking open or splitting stitches gives me extra support under my sports bras and it is breathable DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THE OTHER BRANDS I tried 3 of the white paper tapes and Very dissappointed I know the light blue for sensitive skin cost more but well worth the investment I put mine on one week after doctor removed my steri strips Hope this will help u.... Soon U 2 will be in the ITTY BITTY [RS bleep] COMMITY

protecting all the layers they sew up below the breast I use it across my lower breast incisions and vertical incision and sometimes Nipples LOL... And comes off oh so GENTLY . Just from my advice keep the GIRLS CLEAN AND DRY and they will be happy........ I used no creams or lotions I did use antibacterial soap from Dial. Also I used very little triple antibotics Which my surgeon said was fine but I did not use alot because I didnt want to loosen up the areas where my stitches are.
