Hello! I see some Drs give their patients pain...
WORTH IT$8,000
Hello! I see some Drs give their patients pain meds before their BA surgery and the reviews from womrn have been positive: reduced amount of pain upon waking from surgery vs no pre-surgery pain meds, decreased need to vomit after waking and a smoother/less traumatic/painful recovery in the first 24-48 hours. My pain tolerance is a bit on the low side and I want to be as proactive as possible to mitigate the level of pain I may experience.
I would like to know what these pain meds are, in case I end up with a surgeon who doesnt routinely provide the option to take pain meds before surgery.
I recently started researching for my BA that I hope to have Spring 2016. Thank you in advance!

I think I got pain meds in my IV during surg because when I woke up all I had was tightness & pressure, no pain. I didn't need the hydrocodone & soma until that night. Good luck!

Why is your surgery 8,000$ if you don't mind me asking

I live in the Tri-State and that is the average. Once I settle on a Dr. I will put the exact amount.

So I'm about your size too. I'm 5'1" and 116 pounds. I went with a mentor 500cc silicone under the muscle.
I'm usually a baby about pain, but I got off meds as soon as I could. My Doctor suggested to take multivitamins to promote healing before. The only meds they had me take before surgery were stool softeners. They definitely help with the meds. Try to get off meds asap. It actually made me feel worse. I kept falling asleep everywhere. So i used them for about 3-4 days. I didn't use the meds for nausea or muscle relaxers. I just took the antibiotics and stool softeners. Good luck!

Hello Everyone!
After stalking this website for the past month or so, I am ready to start my own testimonial blog :)
I am a 34 year old Black woman, I weigh between 122lbs-127lbs, I am 5' 1" and currently wear a 34B. My measurements are 34" x 29" x 40". I have been this bra size since I was 15 years old and I am over it. Like some women, I was a late bloomer when it came to being comfortable with my sexuality and dressing sexy. Despite being petite my MO was baggy sweats and long "Little House on the Prairie" sun dresses - basically nothing fitted outside of gym clothes for cheerleader practice. Now that I have comfortably come into my own, I am ready to have breasts that reflect how I see myself instead of the pubescent image the mirror reflects back to me.
I plan on getting my augmentation done in the 1st quarter of 2016. My dress arrives in February 2016 (after a long 10 months of stalking my SYTTD pics) and my wedding is July 2017, so I want to be at least 9 months post-op in January 2017; new boobies will have settled, I will have adjusted to them, I will have an established work out routine and hopefully be in shape/ready for fittings.
I have done so much research on this website and have learned so much from the ladies on here. I am very grateful to all those women who wrote their testimonials/reviews but most grateful for those who post pics with their updates. I vow to be one of those who post pics because I understand how helpful they can be!

You have almost the same measurements as me! I'm 36-30-40 and 5'3" AND I'm doing my wedding June 2017! So cool we're sharing a similar journey! I'm getting a BA so my boobs are proportionate to my butt, and my PS doesn't think he can squeeze more than 500ccs in me. I'm really nervous, because like you, I definitely want to end up a full DD. Here's to trusting our PS and getting the boobies we want! Best of luck :)

Hey twin! Yes we do :) I too have a curvy behind and would love to get the Coke a cola figure I have always admired in others. Omg what I wouldn't give to get 500 in my boobs - lucky girl :) I will be following you - good luck!

I'm petite like you. I'm 4ft 7 or 8 ish, 109 pounds. I went to dr. Lee Corbett in Louisville kY. He's amazi7! I had my surgery on Feb 10th. I'm 15 days post op. I ended up getting 350 cc, silicone gel high profile implants. I've gone from a e2A to a 38 C. Please make sure you take enough time off of work to recuperate. I took 4 weeks off and I'm so glad that I did. I'm just now feeling good like myself again and like I can sleep on my back without a lot of pain. No way I could go back to work at this point and I sit behind a desk. Again, my advice is to take a least 4 weeks off of work.
I have heard of women taking an anti anxiety pre med but not really any pre op pain medication. You might want to pose your question to the RealSelf Doctor Q&A for a variety of doctor responses. Update us again soon with anything you have learned!
