How long did your shooting pains last after explant?

Hello I am four 4.5 months post explant and I am still having shooting pains in one breast. Is this normal? How many of you had these kinds of pains and how long did they last?

Yep, seroma.

I saw my doctor today and I'm not sure how much fluid he removed but he did needle aspiration and filled 3 syringes. Beware, explanters if you're fluffing too soon it might not be fluffing! He said I'm doing too much with my arms. Which is really only about half the stuff I usually do with my arms, so I don't know how much less I can do. I'm bound up tight and have to see him next week to see if there's any more fluid he needs to draw out. Sigh. I guess couch surfing is the only thing I'm going to be doing the next week. Sounds a lot more fun than it really is.

Swelling of one breast but no "sloshing" or the "wave"

The right is DEFINITELY more swollen than the left today. I don't notice any fluid sloshing or this "wave" everyone talks about when there is seroma. Can fluid build under the muscle in the empty pocket? My upper pole "fluffing", I don't think is fluffing because it is so drastically different than my left. I have been bound tight with bandages since my surgery two weeks ago. Every day, every night. I emailed my photos to my doctor and his assistant. I am still waiting to hear if he even wants to see me, which is weird because I have not met with him once since before the surgery. Just his assistant. I hope they don't brush me off again. Anyone have fluid buildup in their breasts that had to let it resolve on it's own (no draining) after explant? What did you do? How long did it take for your body to absorb it?

I met with Dr. Bindrup for my pre-op consultation today. He was very attentive, thorough and sweet. When I told him I only wanted my implants removed, not lifted right now and definitely not new implants put back in, he respectfully did not push any further. That is something I have not found with other surgeons. I have 4 girlfriends who have had BA from him and he came very highly recommended from all 4. Now I am one day after surgery. Dr Bindrup's staff was very accommodating and caring. Dr. Bindrup himself called to check on me the night of my surgery day. He did excellent work and did not push me in a direction that I wasn't comfortable with, as far as re-augmenting. I would recommend him to anyone!
