WORTH IT
Well ladies, I am all closed up I started my scar massage yaaaay!! Now the only thing that annoys me are these stupid spitting stitches UGH I have to wait to get them taken out but then are absolutely EVERYWHERE AND THEY DRIVE ME INSANE. But on a good night pain is very minimal, and I am just super happy with te results ;)
Happy healing

Well I haven't been doing anything so far. It's been about five weeks and I am still sore so no running or any type of PT yet.

You look like you're healing very well! I'm trying with all my might to get my insurance to cover this surgery for me. I'm 22 years old and a size 34J. It's SO painful, but apparently they keep saying I need MORE documentation, even though I have letters and notes from 12 different doctors! I'm so frustrated. I'm also in Wilmington, NC seeing Dr. Morgan at Wilmington Plastic Surgery. I'm trying very hard to get my SECOND appeal approved by next week so I can schedule my surgery for over Christmas break before school starts back up! I'm at UNCW and can't miss class for surgery and recovery, so I feel like I'm on such a time constraint right now. I love reading blogs from other women, especially from my area, because it comforts me. I just hope I get approved soon!

Well I was having a bit of trouble with my left nipple. It has been slightly swollen and very painful. It hasn't healed as nicely as the right. But I got some antibiotics and painkillers and it has started healing over beautifully. My boobies still hurt and te PS said in still very swollen so that was a definite PLUS that means I'll be smaller. I took the liberty of putting on a few old bras! Man I CAN'T BELIEVE I USED TO WEAR THOSE yuck!!! Well just thought I would update ladies. Happy healing :)

Good to hear he seems very nice. i didn't have a lot of questions as i've done so much research before going to see them. Do you have any idea what size you are at now?

Me either, I did all of my research I am supposed to be a C but dr ljung said I am still really swollen I tried on a full C for the heck of it the other day and it didn't fit. It was too big :) so hopefully I'm a smallish C cup

Hi ladies!!!! Just giving an update, I am doing very well. Im am uploading my pictures today.
I went for my one week check up today and the PS said I was healing very nicely, I have had very minimal bruising, just one yellow bruise beside my nipple. I am so happy with the results. The pain is Manageable, I was prescribed Vicodin but I am okay with just take the 600 Ibuprofen. I bought this really great stuff called brave soldier, it is a really awesome ointment that I found out about while I was in Afghanistan. One of my friends used it for her post pregnancy stretch marks and they disappeared, It is also for scarring and pain relief as well as infection protection. So i am excited about that.
I hope that everyone is having a speedy recovery
