WORTH IT
After years of chronic back pain and discomfort I finally had a breast reduction. I am 3 weeks post op and am so glad I had the procedure done. Already my back is feeling so much better. My experience has been great and I am healing well. My husband is very supportive and encouraging. My cloths fit so much better, I can't believe I am only a 38C. I used to be a 38J. I really feel blessed. My PS is one of the best. She used an anchor incision pattern, with no external stitches. I did have drains for two days. But that was not bad and helped to not have internal bleeding and helped have less swelling. I still have zings and hypersensivite skin, but I am feeling better. Just sore. Most of my bruising is gone and looks good. My PS reapplied the steri strips after 1 week. They are still in place and she said they will fall away little by little. No stitches to remove. After the steri strips come off she wants me to keep the scars moisturized and massaged. I am so blessed to be able to have this reduction. It feels like I have a new lease on life. Today I went and bought a few Hanes Comfort Fit jogging bras. Pretty colors and under $10.00 each. Imagine that!!

thanks...your compliment made my day :) I posted pics of pre-op and recovery knowing I would have liked seeing something like that before my surgery. If I can help anyone else it will be great.

Hope so, my husband asked what I want for Christmas....I told him clothes. Now that my stomach is not distended from all the anesthesia and percoset I am feeling great! Have a wonderful Christmas!

So happy. My PS said everything is healing super nice. And my husband is coming home from the Persian Gulf this Sunday! He has been gone except for 2 visits since Aug. of 2012. Since then I have lost 43 lbs. and had my breast reduction. He has been so supportive and I can't wait for him to see my new size. :)

Just looked at your pics. You look great, and yes you do look smaller even though you don't seem sure at times. Congrats on all that you have gone through. BR is such a private issue and sometimes we feel like people have no idea how much courage and strength we have. Or how much is involved in our recovery. Thanks for posting great pics. xoxoxo
