Last night when I got home my left breast was three times the size of the right, turns out I had developed a (Hematoma) a vessel in my breast broke and it filled up with blood. I went through the most painful experience that I have ever had awake as the the DR numbed me and proceded to empty it there in his office last night he started out with a blunt suction needle as to not harm the implant an ended up openng my lower incision with scissors right then and there it worked about a pint of blood ran down my side, he caught most in a basin the rest dried in my underwear ( discovered later) after he got it all out he inserted a suction hose and then rinsed it with salene and inserted a drain then stiched it up. Of course you need to know I am a huge woose I hate needels you look at me and say but you had rny, lbl, bl, ba brachio etc. and now this how could you hate needles so much ? Well all that other suff they do to you when you are out of it and then all drugged up...It is so different when you just have a local injected at teh sight. I think every muscle in my body is strained from the stress and me tensing up. The moral to the story is he said it was caused this late after surgery by me not taking it easy and doing to much..So make sure to rest even three weeks out just take it easy for a few months and don't do anything that doesn't feel right even if it is just washing comforters, grocery shopping and driving a big suv around corners, thats all I did. HAVE A GREAT REST OF THE WEEKEND TORI
