Day 10 Post-Op

My right breast has an open wound and has been draining significantly. I'm worried it may be infected. My next appointment isn't scheduled until the 10th. I'll be calling Dr. Sweat Monday morning to see if I can get in to see him earlier. I want to make sure I avoid and/or minimize scarring.

I hope you get an earlier appointment and your Dr can fix it as best and as fast as he can. Breasts splitting is my biggest fear and why I am terrified of a breast lift even though I likely need it.

Hi and thank you for posting. I'm wondering how you're doing. What happened after your open wound? How are you feeling about your results now?
How did you determine what breast size you would be after surgery?
My surgery is August 8th and I'm very interested in your progress. Can you post updated pics please? Thanks so much for taking the time to help out the Realself community.

Day 6

Well ladies, yesterday was rough. Somehow I managed to get a cold on Sunday and needless to say I'm doing everything in my power to not cough. I had my second post-op appointment yesterday and got my tube removed, thank God. But between the cold and the removal it took me out for the remainder of the day. I can move around a lot more now and I'll be happy when I can stand up straight again. More pics to come soon.

Your results so far look great. I can't wait to see how you progress with your healing. Make sure to walk and sit up so you don't get pneumonia.

Day 4

I've attached pictures of my day 4 post-op. Tummy seems to be really swollen today and still no BM. Even though I'm really swollen, I'm still really happy with the results. The best advice I've received thus far is to take a stool softener with every pain pill. I wish I had taken that advice the first two days of my post-op.

I'm impressed with your results! We have the same body - I'm a little taller and a little heavier than you - and so I can totally see how fabulous I'll look after my TT and breast lift! :)
Keep healing!

Thank you! Each day is getting easier. The TT was the hardest part. I can't wait for the swelling to go down so I can try on real clothes. I'd just like to be able to see the difference in fit to get an idea.

That's good advice from bringmysexyback!! I'll remember that when I have my surgery!!
You look GREAT!! I too decided to add a TT, so I go for that appt on Oct. 22 my surgery tho is schedules for Feb 1 2016. Seems SO far away!!
