4 weeks out.

So I'm healing really well. I've been taking the Arnica pills, and had just a small amount of bruising. My energy is slowly coming back. My left breast which had been the bigger one, is still sore and swollen. They are both still darning a little, and my MD and her PA assure me that it's totally normal. They are great! I'm still sleeping on my back. I'm wearing the Genie Bras around the clock, and they are comfy. Trying on some of my older shirts and I really can't believe what a difference! I'm so much more confident and have to remind myself to stand up straight. Now that I have small tatas, I can see the rest of my body and realize I need to lose weight. I guess I was hiding behind my big tatas, I never looked past them. So now, I'm going to work on losing weight, about 15lbs. Wish me luck!

So tomorrow, I'll be 2 weeks out. I feel good, and so far everything is healing nicely. Sometimes my boobs are so itchy though, and I feel like scratching them hard. Then the feeling goes away. My left breast is still draining a little. It overall doing well. Taking my arnica for bruising, and got the ok to wear a different bra! The PS had 2 Genie bras, and they only cost 10.00!!' I haven't paid that little for bra in forever!

Feeling good. I took off my compression bra and put on my sports bra. Not a good idea! My left breast started hurting a lot, so I went to PS for a quick check. Everything was fine, a little fluid had accumulated. She said she likes to have her patients wear the compression bra for at least the first 2 weeks. So I put compression bra back on and feel much better!

She is a wonderful doctor with a warm and caring staff!! From the minute you make your appointment you are made to feel very comfortable. When you meet with Dr. Rhee, she is very warm and compassionate. She listens to you and what your concerns are, and then gives you her suggestions. She has a very warm bed-side manner, and a great surgeon. Her PA, Olga, is very sweet and gentle. She works with Dr.Rhee both in the OR and in the office. Together they make a great team! Her staff is friendly and always tell you to call if you think something might be wrong. When you do call, even with the silliest question, they are always friendly. When you go into the office, always greeted with a warm smile and hello. The office itself is clean and welcoming.
