Well here it is! One week post-op review!
I would like to start by stating how happy I am with my new body, I know the final result won't show for another month or so but I LOVE my itty bitty boobies lol. My stomach looks slightly smaller, I can't wait for the final result but so far so good!
The recovery process has been surprisingly easy. The first 3 days I needed 24 hours support from my boyfriend and mother. Getting in and out of bed, going to the bathroom, making snacks were all difficult tasks. I highly recommend having a support person around to assist with daily activities.
The only time I was in an unbearable amount of agony was the night of day 3, the Emtec pain medication prescribed to me made me very ill. At 4:30am I started vomiting and my skin became very clammy, nervous that I was getting an infection I made my way to the emergency room where they gave wonderful drugs that made me feel 100% better. Luckily no infection, it turns out the pain medication does not agree with my stomach.
By day 4 I felt well enough to venture off to the nail salon and shop for more sports bras. Day 4 and onward have been a breeze, I am cooking, doing light chores and am back to my typical daily activities with some modifications.
My surgeon has scheduled a post-op appointment for 2 moths from the day of the operation. In my opinion, he is a good surgeon but I would have appreciated a little more attention post-op. 2 months seems a bit too long after surgery for a post-op appointment. What if my breasts weren't healing properly, I wouldn't know, I am not a doctor. Booking a 2 week post-op appointment seems more reasonable. Another thing that bothered me about Dr. Jacoby is, he didn't really ask me my opinion, I get he knows more being the surgeon and all, but I would have liked my nipple to be a tad bit higher. All in all I am happy with my results and he is a good surgeon.
