Finally!!! Before and after pics!!!

Hey Janie, feeling really good. I plan on going to work today for about 2-4 hours. Just going to play it by ear. My PS hasn't told me what bra to wear once I heal up. I'll ask him when I go back this Thursday. We don't know if insurance will pay but we are going to try. Also I believe you can use it for taxes that's what my schedular told me. She handed me a sheet with all the costs so I could use it for taxes. I am going to put it down as reconstructive surgery. Anna

Wow! Your PS did an awesome job, the bruising dosent bother me but the pain is the only thing I think about. When I have mine done I hope my tolerance for pain is much like yours (LOL), I dont like alot of pain meds. But you look great looking forward to your updated pic without the drains and brusing, but even now you look great.

Thanks Willie!!! I think if my ps had not taken precaution I may of had more pain. I have fibro and so we discussed pain management. He had told me that if needed he would do the morphine pump while in hospital, but he didn't like to do that as he feels it slows the heanling down. I guess he decided to be safe, because I did have morphine pump. The thing is you have to keep the pain under control. Once you really start feeling a bunch of pain it's too late and it takes a lot to get it back under control. He also had me on percaset for those first few days. Then he called in a script for loretab once I ran out of that. I haven't used it all. I am just taking tylanol for pain now. I feel more tight and sore now then anything and the pain is the type you would have if you worked out to hard. Anna

Anna- First of all thank you so much for sharing- it really helps to understand what all goes on. Second- WOW!!! Your boobs look great, your tummy is flat and you have a cute little hiney!!!! I am officially jealous!!! I really think your Dr did an amazing job and I can't wait to see when the swelling goes down... Congrats!!! Holly

Thanks Holly, I am very thankful to have been referred to Dr. Krieger. He is awesome. I can't wait to see what the whole package looks like when all the swelling and bruising goes away. Anna
