Everything seems to be getting easier and better. I am able to get up and down without help. They still feel very tight , swollen and sore. I have been icing at least twice a day. It feels really good and seems to relieve some of the tight feeling. I think that I have had an allergic reaction to either the glue or stitches used on the incisions. They have been super itchy and have some small red bumps around them. I have tried wearing several different bras and have found that every single one rubs the incisions and makes things very uncomfortable. I am hoping this passes. Even the surgical bra given to me to wear rubs horribly and makes me feel like I'm gonna pop a snap on it anytime. I think I'm just very swelled. Other than all of the small things I've dealt with, I am super happy with the size and As of so far there are no cysts refilling with fluid.

Thank you!! I think I will be happy with the results when the settle ! Well it's been crazy since I had surgery.. Overall I feel good though.. I seen my ps yesterday and he said I am having an allergic reaction to the sutures used but we don't have many options other than waiting until the sutures dissolve.. He gave me lidocaine patches to see if it would relieve some of the itching. At least enough to be able to sleep at night.. Those are working great! After the appointment I was on my way home and was rear ended and it totaled my car .. Seatbelts, wreck, 1week post surgery...that equals pain!!! The surgery procedure itself and recovery have been very tolerable and I wasn't in much pain anymore and had quit taking pain meds until the accident. I talked to my ps after the accident and he said he doubted that it ruptured the implant and as long as there was no bleeding at the incisions then everything is probably ️ok. One concern that could happen is that it may stretch the capsule that was healing around the implant and cause some asymmetry and may need to be fixed if it happens. Praying it doesn't! I'll post new pics and update in a day or two!

Today started off really good. I thought it was going to be the day that I wasn't going to need any pain meds. I was wrong. I just finished the antibiotics that were sent with me after surgery. I developed a low grade ?fever today.. 99.5.. And now 100.0 so I called the ps and he called in Cipro for 7 days. I also have a spot next to my incision that looks like it has bled under the skin today. It looks like a big purple, red bruise but it just showed up today. Pain has been pretty tolerable but I did take pain meds one time. My left side seems harder and more sore than the right but from what I have read this could be normal."

I woke up today feeling really good. I thought today would be the day with no pain meds.. I was wrong! My left side started hurting worse than it had. I started running a low grade ??fever so I called my ps and he called in another antibiotic to start on. As the day has gone by, I have felt a little better. My ps said to start massaging at one week post op but since I started hurting worse today, I started massaging some. I hope it helps. My right side seems to be progressing normal but the left is sore, more swollen and uncomfortable.
