So after 3 weeks of Singulair and aggressive massage I've noticed a dramatic increase in softness. Phew! 3 more weeks until my 4 month check in (Typo on the title of my last post as that was my 3 month update not 4). Anywho, life with boobs is still fabulous. Hope everyone is doing well :)

So even though my next post-op isn't until August, I went to see my PS last Monday for a question about my boobs. Long story short, he was concerned with my breast firmness at this early stage in recovery. I've noticed they were a bit firm during massage, but figured it was just part of the process. He believes Im exhibiting early stages of capsular contracture (dreaded words) due to genetics since its evenly present in both breasts. He prescribed Singulair and aggressive massage as much as possible for the next 6 weeks. I'm hoping this medication and rough massage will help, otherwise Dr.S said we could leave them as is or entertain the possibility of revision surgery to insert somethings to remove the scar tissue and place something (I forget what) inside the pocket to prevent it from happening against. Ita really great I went in when I did, otherwise I would have gone 2 more months with C.C untreated. Silver lining :)

Hey wondering if you can help me.. I'm about two months post op and want to know what signs you felt that led you to think you had cc? In your pics, your breasts look fine! Which unsettles me because i don't know how I would tell if I had slight cc.. How obvious was the stiffness? Read your update and glad to hear all is well :) My left breast has always been tighter than my right but my PS says it's fine, I just get worried! Thank you xo

So for some reason my entire response after "hmm" didn't post lol. But pretty much it's not like muscles tightness but the bottoms of my implants were very firm and not very pliant when squeezed. I thought this was normal until my doctor said they were too firm for this stage in healing. Now that it's being treated I can see a major difference. If your doctor says it's fine then I'd go with it since he/she knows the difference between post-op firmness and scar tissue. Just be vigilant about massaging regularly (if your doc has okayed massage, I know some implant textures don't require that). One way to get an idea of the degree of firmness is by lightly squeezing the area around your incision, the scar tissue under the site is sort of lumpy but firm. That's the sort of firmness (though not as deep) I felt on the outer/bottom part of my implants. It's difficult to describe so hopefully that helps!

Lol so just now at work, as I was reaching for a kcup I made my first cleavage catch as I dropped one of the kcups. Expecting to hear hear a clatter on the ground, imagine my surprise when the little thing bounced on and settled itself between my boobs. Lol the little things.
Just thought I'd share that fun little tidbit. Happy weekend! :D
