How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Happy
After 1st Appt.
Sorry about the weird angles of the pictures today. I COULD NOT figure out how to get them flipped.
3 wks and 1 day Post OP
I'm sorry it has been about a week since I have updated. I have had sooo much going on with my kiddos. So I actually have two Drs appts to update you on.
Appt 1: was this last Monday. I went in and the dr wanted to check out my little spot like normal. He was very pleased with how it looked and was able to cut away almost ALL the black spot. I am so very excited about that. Now it feels like its going to really start healing. :D
On the same visit there was a spot right beside the spot that was a little "mushy" that REALLY scared me. It just felt different then the rest of my breast so I brought this up to him. It turned out to be a Seroma. It's basically a little pocket of fluid that has gathered. He poked it with a needle and a syringe and brought out about 15CCs of fluid. The fluid was a healthy color and had no sign of infection so nothing more needed to be done there. It did not hurt to bad because everything under there is still just a little numb. He told me to continue the treatment plan as instructed and sent me on my way.
Appt 2: was today. Today was a happy day :D I my treatment plan has changed a bit. Because there is no more black tissue at all I do not have to keep the ointment on it anymore and keep it moist with that. I can now let it dry out and heal up. He only needed to remove some of the yellow scabbing and he used silver nitrate to cauterize where it bleed just a bit. He also stuck the needle in my Seroma again today to see if any fluid had recollected and there was none....THAT [RS bleep] HURT today. I have regained most of the feeling there so it hurt pretty good. But that's okay! I am smiling today :D :D :D
