4 weeks PO
WORTH IT$8,500
Hi all
I made it to 4 weeks :)
Not to much to complain about! I went back to work full time last week which consisted of 10-12 hr days lots of swelling at end of days but nothing I couldn't tolerate.
Once all this swelling goes away I'll be golden :) I also need to watch my food intake I can definitely feel it when I have to much sodium.
Doctor says about 2-3 more weeks I can be released to workout! ! Woot! For now still listening to my body. I still get hunched over towards end of day or if I'm sitting to long. I just take ibprofen for pain.
My scar is healing well... I have silicone strips to help :)
How's everyone else?

So I'm incredibly itchy around my incision... I need some relief, any suggestions?? I've been using just neosporin on it, because I'm not sure what I can I use so close to my incision. I am probably going to call my PS tomorrow. But just checking here first! ! HELP! !

Benadryl, don't use neosporin ! I had a breast reduction about 2yrs ago, and was really itchy in one spot (spitting stitch irritating/poking my chest) anyways I used neosporin for only 2days told my dr at my post op and he flipped, said it was the worse thing I could have used... My scars from the surgery are amazing bc they are so faded except for the spot the skin is puffy :/ everyone is different just what happened to me...

My ps said I might need a vertical scar due to my bb being so high and cuz the skin right above bb is thin. I was stressing out about that but after seeing ur scar I feel so much better about it. It doesn't look bad at all. I hope if she needs to do it that it doesnt look bad. Y did u need vertical scar and did ur ps tell u b4 surgery?

He did warn me, my PS was unsure if i had enough skin to pull down. The vertical scar hids behind my low rise underwear so Iam pleased. I'm 11 days PO now and I swear the scar looks better n better each day. You'll do great and you'll be so happy in the end.

Normal to feel all sorts of emotions before surgery! The count down begins for you, very Exciting! :)
