Revision day

Getting my revision done today. Currently waiting in the room bored and ready for it to be over. I'll keep y'all posted on the recovery. So happy to be putting this behind me!

Capsular contracture

I've developed cc in my left breast. A few weeks ago I noticed my right being the slightest bit lower than left but shrugged it off due to my asymmetry prior to surgery and for getting diff size implants and it's really common for one to drop quicker than the other. Slowly I started noticing my nipples pointing in different directions and really hated thinking about that because they've been soooo perfect and even all along so I just brushed it off thinking "my left will catch up with my right". But I'm a righty... this didn't make any sense. Last week I took update pics and it was obvious my left was much rounder above the nipple and right looked dropped and fluffed. Because I see them everyday I didn't think it was cc and that it was actually moving up. It didn't feel harder, and it didn't hurt. This week it got dramatically worse. Pain started like sharp pain when putting weight on my elbow or forearm (so literally all day at work) and I avoid carrying my laptop with my left (weighs over 5 lbs and constantly going up and down floors and to meetings etc. ) so I finally emailed Jeanette and mentioned my symptoms but downplayed them bc if I don't think about it then it's not true right? Wrong. I sent her a pic and she's sure it's contracture ???? I cried ... I have taken SUCH GOOD CARE of these implants by the book I haven't strained myself and I've been in the "normal workout permission" stage for a while.... still haven't been to the gym though oops lol. Anyway.. I'll need a revision surgery. I'm scared. I'm freaking out about what that process is like. They can't see me for a consult until 3/13... and I'm not sure if because today I got the answer I've been dreading and it became real that the pain spiked because it's all I could think about or if this is going to last until 3/13... and I can't book my revision surgery until that day and who knows what they'll have available. I asked what should I do in the meantime? Nothing. I asked if the surgery is something that needs immediate action and if waiting could damage my implant, pocket, or breast permanently and she said no.. there is no rush for surgery. But I can't help but think how can there not be?? This is so painful. It's only going to keep rising up my chest and contracting. It's going to get rock solid. I miss my perfect even boobs and I'm so mad at myself that this happened. Jeannette asked if anything happened like if I strained myself and I truly cannot remember anything that I noticed being painful... I literally still avoid the stairway at work that has the heaviest door to my floor. I take the long way for other stairs. I open my slider both hands and use force of abs and legs for help. I put my milk on top shelf so I'm not heaving it up. I make my boyfriend carry my suitcase everywhere. I'm just so upset I was so careful ... I took care of my investments but it must've just been something I hadn't noticed, but force enough to bruise and form a hematoma (not 100% sure if that's the case but I doubt it was an infection.. if so it should've happened so long ago after surgery). I need to look back through my paperwork and figure out how much this is going to cost me. I'm also so scared because apparently once you develop cc and surgically repair it - you have a higher risk for redevelopment. So basically I'm going to not ever use my left again lol I'm considering buying an arm sling for when I go back to work so I physically cannot strain myself. But idk how that'll work since majority of my day is interviews and typing like a stenographer. Also my work is with tax... so taking any time off before 4/15 is actually not allowed. I'm close with my boss and I told her today and she said do what you need to do it's a medical emergency so I'm relieved she understands.

Anyway - just wanted you ladies to know. Fingers crossed surgery isn't too bad and dr. Feldman can get my left lady back to being perfect and match my right. I've attached some pics including dates. One is December where they're perky and very round kinda high but identical and even. Next is January they dropped a lot. One might be very slightly lower but not crazy noticeable. Then there's the horrible awful. Can't believe how quickly it shop up so high within a week. By the time I have my consult ... how much higher can it get?? I know I'm being super dramatic (cried at work and go boyfriend) but I'm so disappointed that this happened and that I don't know how or specifically when... I guess I'll see what dr Feldman says once the surgery happens.

Post 2 month update!

Hi ladies. I've been super busy and haven't posted in a while. Not much to update the girls look and feel better everyday. Im starring to notice slight differences between them that I hadn't before. But overall they are very even and I couldn't be happier. Still a lot of numbness on the bottom halves. But I'm giving it time ???? let me know if y'all have any questions. I still love my implants!
