22 Years Old, 34J, Hoping to Relieve Back Pain! - Portland, OR

I haven't updated in so long! Before I had my reduction I really wished that there were more people who kept posting after the first few months post op, so here I am trying to do that!

It's been 10ish months and for the most part I'm pretty happy! My back pain has improved so much it's almost hard to believe.
I still have some soreness, but it's usually only at night (especially when I sleep on my side, or on my stomach).
Sensation wise I'm kind of all over the place. My nipples are pretty responsive and can get hard pretty quickly, but they look a little flat/concave fairly often which was not something I ever experienced pre op. My nipples aslo have a bit of a green tint to them sometimes which is odd. The rest of my boobs don't have a ton of sensation, and what I can feel definitely feels different than what I was used to pre op. It doesn't really bother me too much though. Sometimes I'll get an itch at night though, and it feels so deep and no matter what I do I can't seems to scratch it - anyone else experience this? Some nights it keeps me awake and it's so frustrating.
My scars are pretty dark still, and they are kind of lumpy/bumpy. Lucky for me I don't really care about how they look, but if I did I think I'd be a bit disappointed because it doesn't look great. The overall shape is a little weird and the aren't super symmetrical, but these photos make them look even crazier, haha! I swear they aren't this bizarre looking in real life. Again though, I'm not super worried about looks, less back pain was my only hope/goal.

I never wear a bra and it's so great!

Whoops! I haven't updated in forever! since my last update I'm still having an issue with skin dryness but it's not too bad. My rash is almost completely gone, yay! They are also finally starting to soften up a little with is exciting. Having rock hard boobs was a little weird. They finally have a little jiggle to them!
Unfortunately they look kind of wonky and strange in terms of shape. The side view is honestly kind of funny. I know it can take a year for them to get to their final shape, but I'm a little worried even then they might still look a little weird along the bottom. I'm still back pain free though, and I'd choose wonky boobs over chronic back pain any day!

I can sleep on my side for short periods of time, and have laid down on my stomach a few tims for a few minutes but it's still not very comfortable. My back is still the best option right now. Does anyone else boobs hurt when they sit up in the morning after waking up? It's like mine take a few minutes to get used to gravity haha.

My appointment with my PS was today, and I feel like it went pretty well. He said things are looking good and that he won't need to see me until mid spring. He explained that I can expect the shape to change a lot in the next six months (hopefullly no side boob) and the hardness will go away and the shape will look much more natural. Even though I knew all of that, it was nice to hear. He also said I can swim so that's exciting!
I asked how much was taken off each boob and it was about 1.4lbs from one, and 1.8lbs from the other. That number seems so small, but wow it makes such a difference!!

My rash is pretty much gone on my boobs now. Now I'm just dealing with dry skin!
