Hi Ladies!
The surgery went great. I feel great! Dr. Hawes and the surgery staff are amazing. I can't put into words how fantastic they are. I'll post pictures soon.

Hey Ladies! I had my pre-surgery interview. When I had the implants put in I don't remember having this many guidelines. Like not shaving your armpits for a few days before surgery to avoid any open cuts before surgery. She did say I could use an electric razor. Thank Goodness! Still trying to find some bras that fasten in the front and have good reviews. But, I'm ready to do this. The dull ache is so annoying. I can't wait to get them out.
I've caught a cold, can't take anything since it's close to surgery. Hoping water and chicken soup do the trick!

We are scheduled the same day! It's funny how different doctors requirements are though. Since I having mine removed under local there really isn't anything special I need to do beforehand. Good luck to you!

Welcome to the boards - I'm having my surgery just before you so we can go through this together! I understand the feeling of a dull ache to just get them out. It's anxiety-inducing! My doctor also recommended not shaving my under arms before surgery... I'm having an under arm incision though. I decided to wax 6 days prior, which was a good choice I think.
Gelatin seems to be another supplement of choice - just ordered some from Amazon and can let you know it goes!

Vitamins

I've read about different vitamins, in addition to diet that are supposed to help with the healing process. I've added a daily vitamin until surgery. I've read many on this site have taken 1,000 mg of Vitamin C following surgery. I thought about adding it, Vitamin E a few weeks after surgery of course, zinc, and silica. Any thoughts?

PS be careful with too much vit C just before surgery as i think it can increase bleeding. But obviously do take it during your healing stage. I have heard bromelain can help post op with scarring. You might want to look into that too.
