Breast reconstruction due to implants bottoming out

$13,500
So after 2 years Dr. D performed a Taylor tacking procedure to close the pockets and to put the girls back up where they belong. Although one side needed more work than the other, I am loving the results! I do have nerve pain on that one side that has been a real challenge even though I am 7 weeks out. I am open to any suggestions on that. Valium or Valerian root works but it's not something I can take and drive. So when it's acting up I covertly press or hold the underside of that breast. I am excited that I don't need heavy duty push up bras!

Bottomed out already

Will post pics later however, i am curious to know your thoughts. Have i bottomed out already because of something i did or didnt do? Could my sirgeon have done something more the first time around. I went back and talked with him and its been agreed on that i need a revision. Which means he will have to go in and "taylor tack" the pockets closed. I am feeling a little disappointed about having to go through another long surgery after only a year. My original surgery was May 2015.

It ended up being a 7 hour surgery. My arms are so skinny, but i am not liking the compression sleeves very much. I know they are keeping the swelling down but they are limiting my mobility right now. I ended up with 500ccs doc said the 550s didnt look great, but i have to so Whoa moma i have boobs again and i cant wait for them to drop. I cant do pics yet lol just cant manage taking a pic with these sleeves on, so looking forward to a shower.
