Nervous, scared but excited. Appt is 12:30 and my bff is meeting mom and I there!!
Cash from the bank, visit my pcp then off we goooooo......didn't sleep too good last night. And my stomach is a mess. lol
I guess as a health care provider, it makes it worse because you know what could happen, but usually doesn't. Did I do the right thing by booking this.....? Oh the last minute flurry of questions I have racing in my head. Thank goodness for Kim and D, they have been so supportive of me and my decision. Being 51 and making decisions to enhance yourself seem to draw some negativity from some people. Let it go I say. Do what makes you happy. And this isn't about low self esteem or insecurity as a guy who recently kicked me to the curb said. It's about ME.
NOW to shower and get ready.
xoxoxo

You will be fine. you are probably in surgery as I'm typing this, sorry, just got online to check in. You will definitely be woozy for a day or so, and sore as all get out, but you will be fine. I'm 40 and in recovery week #4. If you have any specific questions ask away. I as well as others will be glad to help. Glad you joined the world of BREASTS PLEASE! Enjoy and good luck ! :-)

Today was not too bad. Went for Rx, mani and pedi. I think I over did it tho. Really sore and had to take a whole percocet. High and tight but looking good. :)
Pics to come.

Things have been progressing along. After reading all the post I was pretty much prepared for things that came along, good or bad. Still a tad sore but saw the ps and got the dressings off. We went with 540cc each as you know the saying...'go big or go home'. Wish I could of done more with my family but rest is the key to a successful healing process. Got about 40 lbs to loose so diet and exercise are On the horizon. Everyone keeps asking my cup size. No clue yet as I won't go for a new bra for at least a month. Oh well..... ;)
