Nausea has dissipated -- today was the first day with no pain med except Arnica, and absolutely no nausea. Still on antibiotic protocol. Walked for 20 min yesterday and today...yesterday I could tell I over did it. Today not so much. Will add 10 min to walk on Sunday. Second PS visit on Monday. Will ask about numbness in right breast, and massaging. I have read here some start almost immediately, others wait 3-6 weeks. Don't got back to the office til Jan so healing time is not an issue for me. So far so good, still pleased with my results. Happy healing to all of my December Breasties. Good luck to all waiting for your special day.

Day 2 Post Op

So yesterday at the DR I found that I have 225 cc in Left Breast, and 300 in right breast. I am happy with the size, as I wasn't interested in going very large. Main goal was to get a close to an even size as possible. Having major nausea today...no real appetite. Slept most of the day. MIL suggested sour pickles to ease nausea...we shall see.. just ate two spears, and drank some Pellegrino water. Will try going for a walk tomorrow.

Once you're off the Percocet, I bet your nausea will subside. Hang in there and congratulations!

Good to hear! I think you're going to be a lot more symmetrical now. Hang in there...it takes a few months for everything to heal and settle in!

So far so good...Saw my Dr..she's happy with results...as am I. Wanted them to look natural. I think we got there. After Dr appt, went to brunch with hubs and walked around a bit. I was told over the muscle is easier, and it is. Sleeping with a Bed Pillow and a pillow under my knees makes back sleeping a little easier, as I am a natural side sleeper.
