3 days post op boobs only
$12,500
3 days post op and only on breasts only due to the hernias i couldn't seem to get the surgeons coordinated.. I finally got some sleep last night which was HEAVEN, i feel a TON better today.. If u notice on preop pics my left breast is alot higher up do to a large scar on my breat, it had actually gave me a breast lift on that side so in order to try to even them put i decided to go saline so they could be adjusted while the dr was in there... I have 210ccs on the left and 240 on the right therefore the right is still more painful and sore but i have no bruising and swelling seems minimal.. Very happy with my results so far and spent $5295

Boobs are done
Haven't been here in awhile... Seemed as though nothing was working out my way, originally was going to do a mommy makeover until 2 hernias derailed that ordeal and set me back months because of 2 sep surgeons having to coordinate and then I had quit my job of 3 years then even though I had the money was afraid to us it but i had vacation to Fl coming up and they wanted to wait until I got, anyways i called the GS a few times and let messages with no response so i decided screw it, ill just do the augmentation right now because i dont know if id even have enough healing time for both...and then get this a freaking lump is found in my boob, so off to get a mammogram and ultrasound which determines it was just a cyst so yay I can still do the surgery..so fast forward from the 10th to the 15th... At the hospital checked in and waiting, iv in finally get something from anesthesiology to relax me get wheeled back in and next thing i know woke up feeling lime a fat sumo ghost was sitting on my chest..i literally then was second guessing my decision. I thought by getting home id lay down and rest,,,, ugh ya not an option if u ever want to get back up. My dr had to call me in an anti nausea med because i felt lime i had to vomit everytime i moved...yes ive cried and said omg why did i do this..then id think remember the unnatural lift to one side from the scar from the tattoo removal and how saggy and little it made the right breast, anywas mine went under the muscle and the extreme amount of pain i have been in i couldnt imagine having done the breast and tummy tuck... I wont even do the tummy tuck now, will post pics when i can see them... Off the land of minimal slumber via lunesta, and setting up sleeping is jot very optimal, just hoping the results is worth the pain

Good luck with the CT scan. They did an ultrasound to look at mine. Talk about painful! Hope it all works out :)

Well I had the ct scan done Thursday but did not hear anything from the dr so I am assuming Monday I will get results...Is anyone doing anything physically to pepare fo surgery? My main thing is no green tea for weeks before surgery..did you know it could cause you to bleed heavily during surgery...garlic,green tea,ginko, chamolmile and a few other things..I drin the trent starbucks grren tea and chamomile like its hitting the road like Twinkies..I was really surprised..so all water regimen fo a few weeks, yougurt,puddings and extremely low sodium type of carb i guess

o ya and btw in my 3rd pic it looks like im emaciated..totally not..its the side where my spinal fusion was performed and the part that looks concaved on my ribs is where one was removed for use of the fusion process..and you can faintly see the scar they were o so concerned with...I just hope the PS is as handy with scars as my back dr was because its one thin line that has faded greatly over years

Thank you for starting your story! I laughed out loud when you described your flower tattoo and pre-apologizing to your husband. A MM is no joke for sure, but most ladies are thrilled with their results and I hope you are, too. Please keep us posted.
