So it has been really uneventful, not really painful and I am healing well!!! Let me suggest BRomelein!!!! I have an LPN with me from the day of the surgery and she is still here and she has taken excellent care of me, so I guess I should tell you that she is my sister too :-) things that I would say #1 stay out of the shower! This leads to all kinds of wound issues. Have someone with you for at least the first several days, have food per made and house cleaned. Get some seriously comfy Jammie's to wear. Walmart has very affordable button up the front styles! The first nite is the scariest and worst maybe day 4 is the worst for swelling. I have no tape and am derma bonded (superglued) I think I,look pretty good right is a bit boxy but I am so pleased that I did this!! Also keep,the surgical bra on mine have great shape because my sister won't let me take it off.....that's all for now love &healing

I was able to find some nice looking cheap bras for a change and in color too. I had gotten so tired of wearing black, tan, or white bras only. Even after a month post my PS said that i have a little bit of swelling still. My breast in my opinion looks a little boxy on the sides but they are improving. I continue to wish you the best with healing

You look great! I had surgery on 11/5/14 & am trying to find sports bras & bras for the next stage, I am can move out of the surgical bra tomorrow (2 weeks post surgery)- where did you find yours???
Thanks!

Forgot say... I too feel boxy on the sides, hoping it is just swelling that will go away, when my arms are at my sides it feels like 2 lumps pushing on them.

Ugh, me too! Very boxy and the lump is mostly on my right breast, it's gone down some with the bleeding, but it's still prominent and when my PS palpitated, um OUCH!

Thinking of you, it's one of the best decisions you've made. Tomorrow you'll be a new you and wonder why you waited so long.
All the best - wishing you a safe op and a speedy recovery!
