After months of meeting with doctors and going back and forth on weather or not to go for it I have finally made the decision to get implants! I was so nervous but I am happy to have made a decision. I lost 20 lbs in the past year and since this weight loss I have become very frustrated with how flat my chest is. I also don't have much of a butt. I feel very straight up and down. However I am athletic and toned and have put so much time and energy into my diet and exercise regim over the past few years so I'm beyond happy to finally have the body that I've pretty much always wanted! I just need to boobs to finish it off lol! Before loosing weight I was a 36A/B cup but since the weight loss I am a 34A. I am getting my BA 2 weeks from today! I went to the pre-op yesterday. I got super nervous filling out all the paperwork but picking out the size was fun and the blood work was easy. I paid in full so there is no going back now ;) I have been having moments over the past few weeks where I freak a little bit and doubt my decision but I think this is normal. For the most part I am really excited and just ready for it to be all over so I can move and enjoy life with bigger boobs. My boyfriend is really supportive and will be taking care of me, we live together. I have only told my best friend. I can't bring myself to tell anyone in my family even though my father works in the medical field. I feel guilty sometimes about not telling my family but it just feels like that would not be a good decision. To me this is personal. I'm sure they will find out later but for now the last thing I need or want is any negative comments or opinions regarding a decision I spent almost a year making and I've done all my homework plus some.
So back to the pre op appt. For size I tried on ranges from 200-350. I knew I did not want a high profile look. I want to be in the C range. Not too big because I sometimes like to wear baggy shirts and I want to still be able to wear loose clothing without looking pregnant or top heavy. I really liked the 250cc would just want a tad bigger so I think I really want something like 285 but I decided to go with 300 after talking to the doctor because he said that a slightly bigger implant would help give a rounder shape to the breast (I have the tiniest bit of "droop") and he also thought since I'm pretty tall 300 would not be too big. I figured this all made sense and most women wish they went a little larger so I'm sure 300 will not be too big in the end of the day.
I hope everything goes really smoothly and I have no complications. I am just going to be careful and follow all directions. Forgot to add: I also have been advised by my PS to meet with an oncologist because I do have a family history of breast cancer and my PS just wanted me to be fully informed of any risk I might have that is great than the general public for breast cancer. The person in my family that had BC was tested and it was non genetic so I think this is good for me but still I have a family history I guess. I am meeting with this oncologist next week. The PS basically told me he will only feel ok doing a BA on my (because of my family history) if I meet with the oncologist and get informed of my potentially elevated BC risk. I was happy about this because so many other consults I went on just totally brushed off the fact that I have a family history of BC. I know that implants don't cause BC at all but they do impede a bit with screening so my plan is to just be really careful and follow up on anything that is not normal that I may feel down the road. Sort of nervous for this appt with the oncologist because in the back of my head I'm like "what if they tell me to avoid getting implants?" but I don't think this can happen because my PS already spoke to this doctor about me and I proceeded with paying and my surgery is scheduled so I'm assuming everything is fine and I'm just being paranoid and overthinking as usual. Did anyone else get implants with a family history of BC? Did you PS advise anything special for you to do because of this?
