I'm only one day post op, but immediately I could breathe (no heavy weight on my chest)... Back is no longer in pain. They seem really small, but perspective is everything so who knows...time will tell! None of the bras I brought to hospital fit....alllll were too big!! Never have I had THAT problem before...as a 48 L I was always lucky to find what I needed!

Yes and no...I was surprised I could achieve such a seemingly small bust line. After years as an M cup size..and now as a B/C based on bra..well it is just shocking (for all the right reasons!!) Surgery went very smoothly. My first words while awaking from anesthesia were.." Oh my, I can breathe!" The weight of my breasts often made it difficult to breathe, never mind move! Recovery was longer than I expected, but I over expected. It was always in line with Dr expectations. Do as you are asked ..rest when you should..and take it easy..this is about you...and when you get the go ahead...go ...run...jump...play...Shoot Baskets again..yes who knew..an M cup cannot freely play basketball...but a B/C most certainly can...oh what joy!! Find your joy ...again!! Oh and no ..insurance covered nothing...absolutely disgusted by the industry and failure to recognize what this brings to a woman's life ...health wise....but insurance industry was not going to stop me from getting my life back!
