Pre Op Appt Today. Nervous Umm Maybe?
SOO, I have my pre op today and I am so excited and the nurse told me he will do my marking today and I am not to shower or wear a bra for the rest of the day!! That's a relief and also stressing on my back, but this is my Official last day with Giant boobs!!!!! I still haven't found out what time I need to be at the hospital in the morning. So I hope everyone is healing well, I will post tonight about my pre op and show pics of my markings. I plan to show him the boobs I want as well as the ones I don't. This should be fun!!

wonderful, I have BCBS ga. they actually approved me in 9 hours. I took pictures of the rashes when I had them, and had letter from my chiropractor, and my female Dr., and my PS took photos as well where I had the rashes. Well I wasn't nauseated after surgery ever, be sure and tell the anesthesiologist to give you the patch during surgery.,,also, I ate pretty much what I wanted for dinner when I got home that night. Now I am different I guess., I am older, 63 took my pain meds for nearly 3 weeks. as my left side which was bigger, was more painful nothing you cant go thru, but I am a wimp for pain. I couldn't take the advil or motrin, due to my acid reflux, it made it worse with pain. and abdominal pain. so I took my loratab. now I don't use any, but occasional Tylenol extra strength. I am almost 10 weeks post opt...my advice to you is do not do what I did, I felt ok, so I went grocery shopping, walmart shopping, and believe me, at 2 weeks, it is to soon. this is major surgery no matter what they tell you...so please lay up watch tv, knit, read, let your family wait on you. walk around to keep your self going but please, no matter how great you feel, you need to heal....I set myself back in healing about 4 weeks, and still paying for it...take my advice...TAKE IT EASY. the first week was a honeymoon, the 2nd week the nerve endings started coming awake, and reconnecting, but that was not bad., zingers come quick and go quick. but everything has to heal inside. also, the walmart sports bras, or any of these that ride on your incisions do not use them, go ahead and go on amazon, and purchase the merena b2 surgical bra...but buy it one band size larger. it feels like your skin, and made for reductions, it does not touch the incison areas, I blame the sports bras on my open incisions at the joint incision..rubbing on it....the bra can cost around 37 dollars, but worth every penny...be sure it is the 2 inch band. they do not roll up and are adjustable when you swell or unswelll...with 3 rows of adjustments...I love my smaller breast and know when I am totally healed I will be proud I did it...you just can't hurry the healing, I found out the hard way...good luck keep us all posted.

meant to tell you...do lemon tea for swelling...use real lemons, roll them till soft, and cut in half, squeeze all the juice out into one cup of water...add just a little sugar, or honey to sweeten if you need to, drink this morning and use the other half again at night., swelling will be a thing of the past with this.. also, if you are not on a diet due to health, increase your greens, and more lean meats to speed your healing..cut out a lot of the junk food, and eat healthy...that really does help.
