3 week update
WORTH IT$4,500
Doing better each day, but still wear out quickly. Breasts hurt worse than the huge incision on tummy. New belly button has bothered me a lot, I think it's trying to take on its new position and nerves make it feel strange.
The glue tape on my abdomen from hip to hip finally pealed off the rest of the way tonight after a warm shower.
I finally slept in the bed last night but still more comfortable in the recliner. I go for my three week check up on Tuesday.
Breasts have a thin spiral type wire around areola that is itchy and driving me nuts. I hope he takes that out.
Everyone says how great I look and how I am standing up straighter!! I bet!! 24 lbs lost with surgery, minus the fluids still from swelling.
Which dr said swelling will be around for 6 months until final product.
Here are some new pics.

Dr apt one week out????
Went to one week apt today and got all of my drains out and those spongy flower things off nipples. I'm so excited and feel great!!! I have to put this petroleum paper on top of nipples for seven days just to keep healthy. Dr said for as much work as I had done the swelling is to be expected. I go back in two weeks. He said the swelling in breasts will last 2-3 months aprox and tummy 4-6 months. Pics posted! The one is my lap.... Did you know we are supposed to have a lap?? ????????
