Had My Re-Reduction April 20th!

A remarkable thing has happened in the past few days. The funky scars in the center are flattening out! It's almost like there were internal stitches pulled overly tight and as they're dissolving, the skin is able to go into it's intended position. (Not sure if that makes sense!) In any event, I'm thinking I might not need a revision. When am I going to lean to have faith in my PS! He's fantastic! A friend said last week that he's seen all of the boobies in town. You have to be good to do work on that many people!

FOUR WEEKS post op, as of today! First to the scary part. As you may recall, I fainted while taking off my steri-strips at 2 weeks post-op. A couple of days later, I started feeling "off." I felt fuzzy in the brain, sensitivity to light and sound, my vision was off and I had spells of dizziness. I thought at first that I had a migraine coming on, but after days nothing else happened. Then I started to become worried and thought that I had a sinus infection and it was messing with my optic nerve. After 10 days, I went to the doctor and it turned out that I had a concussion! I didn't know that symptoms could have delayed onset. At the time of the appointment, I was feeling much better, so he didn't order a CT scan to check for brain bleed. (YIKES!) I'm feeling 90% back to normal now. The bruise on my hip hasn't fully healed, so I suppose it's normal that my head hasn't either. :o| Doctor said to take it easy (mentally and physically).

Now on to the reduction.... I feel fine physically and have for a while. I'm VERY pleased with my tiny size! The areola look beautiful. I have full sensitivity. The scars around the areola are perfect and the incision down the front of the breast are perfect. BUT, I'm not totally pleased with the incisions that run underneath the breast. Towards the center, they fold back in on themselves and it's bugging me. I'm also worried that it could invite yeast. Does anyone have experience with having a scar re-done?

Also, on the outside of my right breast, almost under my arm, there is more bulk. I'm going to ask about having that reduced.... maybe with lipo? It's not a huge issue, but he seemed to contour the outside of my left breast more than the right. This is FAR less of an issue than the scar and I might not end up even mentioning it.

After a restless sleep, I'm doing fine today. My hip hurts a bit where I fell onto the laundry basket. You should see the laundry basket! It's a sturdy one and it looks like a crumpled mess. I'm so thankful that it was there to break my fall! If I would have fallen the other direction, I would have gone into the countertop.

In any event, I spoke with a doctor this morning (not PS) and she was certain it was from pulling up the steri-strip, and not anything else. Thereafter, I called my PS's office. The nurse said that I can come in today and they'll remove the strips for me. So I'm going to do that. There's no chance in h-e-double-hockey-sticks that I'm going to attempt to remove them myself. LOL

Look for a steri-strip-free picture soon!!!! Here's hoping they looks as good in the buff as they do with the strips!
