Just a little about me. I'm a 48 year old mum of two, kids now 20 and 23. I'm a nursery teacher and constantly on my feet and my aching back at then end of the day is wearing me down. I've had big boobs ever since I started to develop and although would have. Loved to have a br in my 20's it just wasn't financially viable. I always new I had to pay for my treatment as my weight loss is so slow I'm currently 171 pound and a size 18 top and 14 bottom. I has a hysterectomy 9 years ago as had pcos and endometriosis and my weight is constantly an issue for me which gets me down so much. Although I appear confident in my job inside I'm always so sad as I don't want to be the size I am, so this is the first stepping in making a new me. I now exercise 4 times a week and hope after my aBr this will spur me on. My husband is very supportive although he is in mourning as he is a boob man lol but understands why I want to do this.

I had my first consultation in Feb 16, I had researched PS for months and am happy with my choice. I had to get my bmi down to 41 which I have now achieved. I had my pre op and bloods done yest and its all systems go for the 25th July. I'm so excited I could burst can't wait for the end of academic year so I can get last bits sorted, food cooked and stored in freezer and bag packed. Good luck to anyone else have BR soon x

After seeing nurse last week and starting arnica as pre op instructions, I've had headache since last Friday, spoke to nurse today and she said to stop taking them. Am a little gutted as was hoping to keep bruising to minimum but will have to let nature take its course ???? good thing is she's confirmed I go in at 7am next mon and my surgery will be late am

Maybe ask the nurse about topical arnica after surgery to get rid of bruises faster. Bruising is a normal part of this procedure. They have to do a fair bit of cutting to keep blood supply to the breast but also get rid of excess tissue and create a pleasing shaped outcome. The bruising will pass. The bulk of mine was gone in a week or so. I hope yours is gone even faster.

Ah that's good to know I'm so excited but have had a real teary day today, I think if I could just shake the headache off, then I would feel better it's probably a stress head ache. Glad your recovering well after your op x

Drink lots of water! Great for headaches and I bet it helps clear out bruises too. :)
