43 Yr Old, Breast Lift with 275 Cc Saline, Mentor Smooth Under the Muscle - Vancouver, BC

Well tuesday was my surgery and It was much easier then i thought. I was nervous going in so talked alot and laughed alot..... nervous habit! In the recover the nurses were awesome! I found I was a bit scared after when the bandages were on because I though my left looked so much bigger.... but it was some swelling. The nurses had the surgeon come and check to make sure I wasnt bleeding inside socket. All was clear! Wew!

Day 1 post op was great took Emtec every four hours. Pain was a great deal less than what I was expecting. Lots of ice and take your pain meds.

Day 2 post op was abit rough felt so good day 1 did way too much with my arms. Note : you dont need to do anything!!! Let your family help!! Slept well!

Day 3 I was completely off the Emtec and just starting taking muscle relaxant with Ibprophen. I found my body was so tense from sleeping upright and my arm especially my right feeling achy. Not sure if anyone else has experience feeling of gurgles in the breast after almost like water moving around. Very weird sensation!

Day 4 just begun and feeling tired from not sleeping well haved taken any meds today yet.... hopefully I wont need them. Muscles are tight and my chest feeels like someone is sitting on it. But , definitely not as a bad as the last few days. Took a few pics surgery day and day 1 and day three post op.

Heres to happy healing.....keep you updated when I can !

Feeling good this morning. Tightness still there but not very sore. More muscle strains, possibly using my arms too much!
Taking motrin muscles relax with ibprophen before bed is helping me sleep a bit better. Apparently sleeping upright is making me snore so my poor husband is suffering lack of sleep!! He has been amazingly awesome.... super lucky!!

I was as the surgeons office.... he says Im healing well and my results a great! I feel pretty good but still trying to do too much. Sleep grrrrr what sleep! Finding it difficult seen as im used to sleeping on my side. Other wise doing better than anticipated. The true test will be going back to work wednesday. my line of work I use my arms all day!! Driving has been okay, finding my right ride is more muscle strained then my left. Taking the the odd muscle relaxant and motrin as need, but mainly in the middle of the night. Been doing light biking on stationary bike at the gym and lots of walking.... need to get back to my routine for gym and running sooner than later!!

Overall very very happy!!!!!
Regards!
