So I guess I could say this is my 2 week review.
So far so good! My right side has given me a little more pain then my left but I think this is the side that has dropped and fluffed a little faster than the other.
I had my one week post op and Doctor said the results looked great. The scars were a little dry due to the allergic reaction I had to the medical tape and so moisturize those a lot constantly. I have been using coconut oil but may start using frankensise as well.
I tried to be a good mom yesterday and took my three kids sledding.
Wasn't planning on actually sledding but my 2 year old really wanted to go down the big slide so I took him down. All went wel until I tried to get up and pulled my already sore pec muscle.
Called the doc about the pain and he told me i most likely just strained the already banged up muscle and to really be careful. Okay okay okay.... I'll listen better. It's hard to be a mom and patient. Anyways here is an updated pic.

Massive Itchiness!
Yogama2323November 15, 2015
Thursday (2 days ago) I started to get really itchy at the site of the pain catheter. I looked at the pain ball and noticed that it was pretty much empty. I called the office and asked for my removal to be that day since it was
Bothering my so badly. The nurses who removed it were so surprised to see how raw and red my skin was from the irritation. They told me to keep and eye on it and if it got worse to call back.
Later that day, I was still itching like a crazy woman and noticed on the left side that a huge blister had formed.
I called the doctor and they put me on a high dose steroid medication to help with the reaction. The combination of the steroid, muscle relaxer, and pain pill helped keep my mind off the itching until mid afternoon when i was beginning to question the surgery in the first place.
I placed another call to my doctor who said at this point there isn't much they can do besides wait for the heavy steroid to start working (1-2 days) but be did say I could take off the steri-strips. I was super nervous about taking them off so close to surgery but if they gave me a tiny bit of relief it would be worth it.
So off they came.
EEEk. Where those suckers red and raw. I felt so bad for my girls and the look on my husbands face
Was pity. You could tell he felt bad for me too! After the shower and another round of meds I feel much much better. I'm going to continue my cocktail of medicine until it all runs out and hopefully this nasty reaction will go away too! I'm uploading a couple of pictures. Can anyone tell me if my breasts will fluff out more
And come together more (drop) or are they in their rightful place?
Thanks

Oh my God you poor thing.
I know easier said then done but at this point you have no choice but to let the medication take it's course. I'm wondering why the doctor didn't make the incision under the breast instead. Please, keep us posted. I want to know how your feeling.

Oh ok I understand .
I sure hope you feel much better soon. Your implants look like they r exactly where they should be. Give it time to settle down. Did ur dr suggest gently massaging the implants downwards?
Also make sure when ur implants r in the support bra that both nipples are facing outwards. I didnt realize mine were facing down in the support bra.

I'm so sorry you had such a bad reaction! I get allergic reactions to things that cause itchiness and I can attest that that feeling can drive you mad!! Hope you find some relief soon.
As for implants, they will come together and fill out the bottom more as they drop You will notice big differences in the weeks to come. You look great so far though so the outcome is sure to be fantastic!!

The steroids do take time...I was also put on Benedryl for itch relief and it worked very well. Made me sleepy so I was able to rest. My doc told me to take max dosage and I could shorten the time between dosage. (Since it is over the counter, it is nearly impossible to overdose. I researched and found some awful website about what happens if you do od on it and the bloggers said even 75 pills didn't kill 'em...it just gave them weird dreams...they highly recommended that one not use Benedryl to attempt suicide!!)

Boobs or just large pecs?
Yogama2323November 13, 2015
I'm a little frustrated right now. First of all they lionlike huge smushed boobs with no cleavage and not much projection.
I am not lifting anything heavy like my 2 year old but doing dishes and putting things high up.
I also heard some noises coming from the right implant. I read that it's normal but I just don't want to end up on Botched ;).

I think you look perfectly normal for just a few days post op! Actually, I think less boxy and high than most at your point of healing! I haven't experienced the squishing noise, but I've seen it mentioned by many ladies on RS. If you're worried, just call your PS's office to put your mind at ease. How's the itching? I would caution you not to do too much still if you can. I'm about 10 days post op and just now starting to do dishes but still not putting heavier plates and things up into the cabinet. I know everyone heals differently but just remind yourself that you don't want to do too much and cause complications. Hang in there!!

You chose 500cc, they ARE big, just need more time to surface!
You have nothing to do with botched! I watched the last episode on a woman after explanation and got so freaking scared. Dubrov said its dangerous to not reimplant immediately and that it may not be possible at all if put off until later. Well.. I've explanted... Waiting for reimplantation. It did spook me out. We shouldn't watch stuff like this!
