Time has finally come to say good bye to my big...
WORTH IT$6,000
Time has finally come to say good bye to my big boobies. Surgery is April 15th. I've always had big boobs from being 12yr and have suffered all the usual problems that come with them, from the aches and pains to buying clothes that fit, and of course they just don't look nice anymore. And I hate it when men talk to your chest and not to you. So after menopause and being diagnosed with underactive thyroid they were getting even bigger, so decided now that I can afford to get them done myself, I would. I had breast fed 3 babies so they did their duty. Lol.
I have been hooked to this site reading everyones stories and I can compare myself to most of them. I must say there are some marvellous results. I have read some good advise that I will use it in my post op care.
Can't wait now..
I have my pre op check next week

UPDATED FROM j1963
7 days pre
Pre op assessment today
I was dead excited today even though it was just my pre surgery checks, but I ended up Sitting and waiting for an hour passed my time to be seen, it's seems even paying private doesn't get you to the front of the queue. Suppose we can't help folk calling in sick. But all is well, had an ECG, bloods, weight, blood pressure and temperature. All is ok. Pressure a bit high but put that down to the anxious long wait... After all I have a job to get too straight after and I knew I was late already. Had a Q&A session just simple stuff. I have been applying bio oil to my chest to prepare the new skin for the surgery and try and decrease some stretch marks to help it all look good, and the sticky pads wouldn't stick to my chest during the ECG, lol. So remember to keep dry when going for a pre op test. Lol..anyway on schedule . Tick tick tick.

Good luck for the 15th. I'm just recovering from my BR surgery that I had at Spire Bushey, Hertfordshire on 7/4. I have been very well looked after by them and hope you receive the same treatment too. Ps I've also had an underactive thyroid for the past 14 years, I don't think people understand the impact on you that this condition actually has.

Thanks Smithy, hope you are recovering well and happy with your results. I've managed to shift 1stone 9lbs in prep for this op, which was hard graft, as I sit at a desk all day. But yeah, my weight piled on due to the thyroid issue and was always and still am tired all the time. I've heard that the rooms in the Spire are like 5⭐️ Hotels. I'm expecting good things. Good luck.

Hi ya, yes I can honestly say it was an experience that was so very different to my previous NHS hospital stays. Full English breakfasts, and fillet steak for dinner (oh yes and how can I forget the delicious fresh cream scones at afternoon tea!) tea, coffee, snacks on tap all day and night. The care by all the staff was 5 star they really fell over themselves to see that everything was Ok. I had 3kgs in total removed from both boobs and my consultant kept asking me how on earth had I managed with them for so long....she couldn't believe it. My procedure took 5 hours in total from leaving my room to coming back from recovery. I had it at 6pm Tuesday Eve and arrived back home Thursday lunch time as I kept being sick throughout Weds so didn't feel up to leaving Weds eve. Been up and down since coming home as it's frustrating that you can't do much or get comfie in bed cow of the stitches and it's taken a while for the anaesthetic to leave my body too as that always make me feel rough. Good luck for yours Hun x

4 days to go.. Can't wait to have small nipples. We Don't like the digestive biscuits (as he calls them). 3kgs that's a lot .. You must feel great after giving that off yA chest.

I have my pre op this Tuesday the 15, it says they do loads of tests. I also have an under active thyroid and the weight has gone on due to this and just trying to get the medication right. I'm excited, terrified, curious and just can't imagine what it's going to feel like. 29th is my operation, been waiting years to be able to afford to get it done. Looking forward to being in the Nuffield. Xx
