After two consultations with two different doctors I have chosen Dr. Feng to do my explant surgery. I had a consult with Dr. Medalie which lasted about 15 minutes. I just felt that Dr. Feng had more experience with the surgery that I need done. My first consult with Dr. Feng lasted 90 minutes and she went over my lab work that I had done with a different doctor that never bothered to take the time to do it. She really takes a holistic approach to health which I appreciate. That is hard to find in a physician. I have had these implants for over twenty years and they are hard and uncomfortable. I am also having many of the symptoms that other women have displayed, joint pain, extreme tiredness, mental fog. I hope they will look alright, I could not afford to have a lift right now but maybe in the future. Tomorrow morning is my surgery!

I had my surgery on wednesday morning and all went well. Dr Feng and her team treated me very well.I recovered quickly from the anesthesia and did not feel sick at all afterward. I was told she uses a nerve block so that less anesthesia is needed which made a real difference. I was given a nice fresh fruit bowl after surgery and sent home with a delicious soup and salad which was enough for three to four meals. I still dont know how I look yet because I am still wrapped up. I am having some discomfort but it is manageable. I will probably have the drains removed on monday or tuesday. Looking forward to getting this ace bandage off and tight garment. Overall though I am very happy to have those hard implants out and extremely satisfied with the care ofDr Feng and her team.

Wow you drove?! I was afraid of renting a car because I thought I wouldn't be able to drive. Hmm.... How long have you had the drains for? Did you get a lift? I'm following you and can't wait to see your updates. Thanks for sharing your journey. Xoxo

I just posted the pictures. You wont be able to drive for about five days I would say. I had the drains for six days which Dr. Feng told me that is a little longer than usual but since my breasts were so hard I guess they had more fluid. No lift I could not afford it but she helped by putting some kind of internal suture on my left side so that my nipple wouldnt look sunk in, so grateful for that.

I am six days post op and will have the drains removed tomorrow. Maintaining proper nutrition is key to getting them out as soon as possible.
