No Longer Waiting to Explant - I did it yaay!

Seroma left on its' own, months ago actually. I had 4 aspirations and called it quits in that department. I used an ace bandage and wrapped myself up like a mummy for a couple months, (very uncomfortable) and it gradually, slowly absorbed on its own.
The "funky nip" issue also resolved itself. I don't know if it was the coconut oil I massaged with, or the seroma going away, but it's normal now.
I don't regret my decision at all, it was totally worth it. There was some adjusting to do, mentally and physically, but in the end, I'm happy to just be back to my old self.
To all the ladies out there waiting to explant....DON'T overdue it for a good 6 weeks afterward. Even if you think you are out of the woods, don't push yourself or you may do more harm to yourself without even realizing it. I'm pretty sure that's how I got the seroma. I don't wish that on anyone, but it is a complication that is a real possibility.
If not for the support of all the awesome ladies on here, the journey would have been much more difficult. So thank you to all of you!!

Two and a half months post op....I went last week for 4th seroma aspiration. Dr. poked and prodded till I looked like a pin cushion & couldn't get the fluid, it's deep under the muscle. And even tho I got several local shots, it can't numb the muscle; and boy lemme tell ya it hurt like he**!! Dr. ended up ace bandage compression like crazy, I could barely breathe. My ribs are bruised, really sore...still keeping them compressed.
I asked about lymphatic massage & Dr. said not really for a seroma situation. He said to keep compressed & massage & if it doesn't resolve, we will have to go back to the OR and insert a suction drain. So bummed out....I do NOT wanna have to go under again, I got sooo sick last time, and headache from hell. I just want this to all be over. I can't even jog yet....trying to not really use my arm much. I've been staying home most of the time, only go out when I have to. It's bad enough to be flat chested & have to get used to no implants, but having to squish the holy heck out of the poor gals is even worse. It's awful, and is not ending. It's like Groundhog Day.
I've been so depressed lately, it sucks. I'm feeling sorry for myself, I know....suck it up, I tell myself, it could be worse. I think the seroma may be getting a little smaller tho. A tiny bit smaller....so I compress & massage & keep my fingers crossed. We are supposed to be leaving in our motorhome in a couple weeks and will be gone for a couple months. So despite Drs. orders, (he told me he doesn't want this to go beyond 3 months), I'm sticking to our plans & the seroma will have to do what its gonna do. I've read it could take up to a year to resolve on its' own, so I don't see why I have to be aggressive with the drain procedure.
I will keep everyone posted.....and to all those ladies waiting to explant.....take it completely EZ afterward & keep those babies compressed!

Eight weeks post op.
I went for my 3rd seroma aspiration a couple days ago, Dr. got 30 cc's this time, so a little less than before. Then he wrapped me in a tight ace bandage and said to wear it for a few days. He said I'd probably have to have a couple more aspirations still. But better than going back to the OR and have a drain put in. Trying to not move my right arm much....so we will see if it helps.
Much love to all my sistahs!
