I am a 50-year old female. I have had big breast all my life. I liked having them, but now they are too big, so they have to go. They have held up pretty well. I lift weights and have been doing pushups against the wall since I was 19 because I was told they would keep my breast from falling, it really works,even though I haven't been doing them regulary for the last couple of years.
The doctor said my nipples are where they are supposed to be, but the rest is huge. I'm past DDD and have been for years. I really don't know how big I am, I just know my bras don't fit, my back is begining to hurt and my neck is feeling the strain, not to mention the bra straps indentation on my shoulders. They also make me look old.
I can't wear a lot of tops that I would like to wear. For suits I have to get a 12 bottom and 16 top. I get it done on Tuesday and will give a full account of what happens with my breast reduction. I have started taking anica,15 pills a day, 30c.

Might have to try those wall pushups to keep my new girls in place longer :-)
That's what I did for 48 years, of course skimping on the past couple of years. I will start doing that again now that I have new breast in about a couple of months.
The surgery went really well. It was worth it. Now I have the lipo in a couple weeks. We will see how that goes.
Thanks for your e-mails. I am going to have done my back the whole abdomen area, my chin and have fat injuections in my face. I will goet that done the 17th. I will write a rewiew on it. I will write another another review on my breast this week.
8 days- post op. I did it. First, I went to the...
I did it. First, I went to the assistant doctor to get marked up, then I went to the hospital. The doctor came by and said, can we get things strated early? My husband and I said yes. They hooked me up to the IV and then I was rolled into a room for the Happy Juice.
I woke up. My husband walked in. I had pain underneath my breast. I asked for pain medication and got it 15 minutes later, but that is another story.
I love them. They are going to be a DD. They are a little small for my DDD bras now. I was bigger than DDD, I just never got new bras. even though I knew they didn't fit for a couple of years.
I can tell they are going to settle down to DD. I am begining to itch now. I use Benadryl and Neosporin to help with the itching.
The tape is begining to come off with the stiches. The doctor told me I could start taking a shower and letting the tape come off.
The shape of them is round like my original ones, so I am very happy that. I know it will take a while for the discomfort to go away. It is worth it. I am very happy.

It is now two weeks and two days since my breast...
It does not ache as much as it did a wwek ago.
Now I am concentrating on making sure there ia hardly anything left of the scars. I put neosprion twice a day on the cuts and I am still taking arnica montana three times a day.
They are still beautiful and round. The nipples look like they should and are healing nicely. Very pleased.
Thanks for your review. I hope your surgery went well. Please let us know how you're doing.
It went very well. I did order your 13 tips. I took extra pain meds for the drains. Glad I did. They took out a pound from each breast. They look perfect and brand new.
Excellent, I'm so glad everything worked out well for you. Now just a matter of time and patience until everything is well healed!
