Breast Reduction - Sacramento, CA

I had my breast reduction on October 5,2011. I was so nervous in the months before. I am a 5'1 girl with 38F boobs. Way to big for my little frame, even with me weighing 160lbs. After ny reduction i wanted be around a "D" cup because while i liked my big breats, they were just to heavy and caused a lot of pain.

However, from what i can tell as of right now, they look to be about a "C" cup. I am still a bit swollen but most of the swelling has gone down. I have two drains in place which i should be having taken out on tuesday. Overall, even if they are not the size i wanted, i am very happy i chose to go threw with it and the pain is worth it also.

So, today is 4 days post-op. I think overall I am doing pretty well. I do still have a lot of pressure in my chest, which I am assuming is normal. I am starting to get the sharp jolts into my nipples which I am told means that the nerves are reattaching, so I know that's a good thing. I still have yet to see my boobs without my bra since I am not allowed to take it off until my appointment on Tuesday. I am anxious to see them but no matter what I can already tell a major difference in my back.

So today has been a pretty good day. I have not taken any pain med's since 10:00 last night and I don't feel as if I need any. I have quite a bit of pressure still in my chest but I think that is my skin trying to readjust to the new changes. I have had very minimal drainage and it is mostly clear since two days ago. As I have said before my first doctors appointment is this coming Tuesday the 11th. I will get to see for the first time, my new boobs!!! I am so excited. Oh and I am happy to report that all the pain in my hips that I was having, is now gone. I needed to get up and walk around and after doing so it went away.
