Humbling Experience 34H/I to 34D

Dr. Rawlings was absolutely wonderful, him and his team of nurses made me feel so comfortable while I sad ,afraid, and nervous, What really satisfied me was that he was so excited to do the reduction from that point on I could tell that he genuinely loved his job. Dr.Rawlings took his time during the procedure and made sure I was okay before leaving the clinic and I am forever grateful for that. I am 21 years old I was a 34H I believe, but more than likely I was a 34I because I was spilling out of my bra from the sides and the top. The reason behind my breast reduction was not only for esthetic purposes but Ive also been experiencing shoulder, neck, and back pain. I did not see a specialist for these concerns I just kind of dealt with it until I could no longer deal with it anymore, Ive wanted a reduction since the age of 16 and I finally pushed myself to look into it and do something about it. I currently have CHP (capital health plan) and I was 100% covered I didnt have to spend a penny (so far). I went in for a consultation on June 4th and got my procedure done today July 3rd lol so it was a very swift process that I wasnt sure if I was ready for but I am so content and happy right now that Ive gone through with this. Im not completely sure of what size I am the doctor said I am a small D cup which looks accurate at the moment but I am still swollen I had the surgery 8am this morning. here are some pictures

when I came home from surgery I slept A LOT. I would say the pain level right now which is day 1 is about a 5, I am uncomfortable but its a pain I can handle. Ive been walking a lot to avoid clotting and drinking LOTS of water I feel like it doesnt matter how much water I drink im STILL dehydrated lol.
