Hi everyone. Got out of surgery about 2 hours ago. I am feel..
Added 2023-10-10 03:12:07 +0000 UTCHi everyone. Got out of surgery about 2 hours ago. I am feeling so so so much better. Less pressure, less weight on my chest, my chest isn’t pulling. I tried 5,040ccs each, didn’t work. So, here’s what happened: My skin on right breast was stretched so damn thin that I was days away from my expander poking through skin. I could not believe my skin just could not take it and SO thankful my Dr. acted swiftly and we had surgery today. I’m 3,000ccs each. My skin in a little area was too thin so Dr had to cut it out and fold skin together to get healthy tissue/skin. It sounds gnarly, kind of is but I can not express how happy I am that I didn’t have an infection, that I didn’t have to xplant, that I am healthy and that I can finally start to heal soon. This is a sign, I can not handle that size. I have my post op tomorrow so I’ll know more but I’m tearing up because this has not been an easy 1 month for me to recover. I would have my days where I thought “ok we are good” but then issues again. I just really needed to downsize and glad we did it before anything super serious happened. I am not thinking of “filling” or anything like that. I just want to heal and think 3,000ccs is a good number for me to be at. Ok, I’m off to relax and watch Halloween movies. Love y’all and please know, I’m 💯 ok, and truly ok not being over 5k. That size just isn’t for me.
