I Did It with no Regrets and I'm Loving it 4 Days Post-op Houston, TX

Its been almost a year since my surgery and although I'm happy for my relief I cant say that I'm happy to have had the surgery. Don't get me wrong I really needed for my health so for that I am grateful. A couple of weeks after my surgery I developed a stitch cyst on my right nipple that became infected it would later pop on its on within a day or so, so I had no need to go to the emergency room. However, I did see my surgeon the following day and he said that it was common and it was no need to worry. Everything to him seemed fine and that I was healing perfectly. Now that I believe my healing is done and my breast have taken there shape I can really see the outcome and I don't like what I see. I guess with the swelling I couldn't tell how small they made them and how deformed my nipple is now after the cyst. My breast still seem uneven and in my right breast I have 3 large lumps that feel like rocks. I went back to him 6 months later for a follow up and he told me that everything still looked normal so, I gave him the benefit of doubt. Now that's its been a year I still see no change and I'm very unhappy. I am considering contacting a new surgeon to see if this can be fixed. Is there anyone else out there experiencing similar issues? If so please let me know because I am so confused.

So today I went and had my drains removed. The right side was a lot more pain full than the left on a scale from one to ten I give it a 6.I finally got to see my breast and they are beautiful and I so surprised that I have no bruising just swelling so I am very happy about that. I finally get to take a real shower and I so glad this is the best feeling ever!! I get my stitches removed in 7 days so im looking forward to that next. but besides that my pain level has decreased substantially. I am able to drive and get up and move around by myself.

So its been 4 days since my surgery still really sore. I am getting my drains removed this coming Monday 11/3/12 I am so excited about that!! This will be my first time seeing my boobs with out the bandage. I have been feeling really week so the doctor told me to start taking Iron Supplements. I haven't started taking them yet but when I do I hope I feel better. I slept okay for the first time since the BR. I have a crap load of pillows supporting my back so it makes it easier to get up unassisted. I am still taking my antibiotics and Vicodin but besides everything is pretty much the same. I am able to move around a lot better.
