Good luck Kathi!  Keep us posted.

YOur gonna be HOT !!!!! Best of Luck to you.

Thank you!!!  My Surgery has changed from 9:45 to 10:15am.  Not too bad!  I just hope i don't have one of my low blood suger attacks! No food or water after Midnight.

I didn't know it was tomorrow!  Good luck!  I know you are in great hands.  (crossing my fingers you get Sarah in the morning---she was a whiz at the IV!)  You must be through the moon so excited!!!!!!!  It creeped up so fast it seems!

 I can't wait to see your results.  Tell Dr. Claytor I said HI LOL. 

Hi Tanya,

I am so excited!  Did you have your revision?  I told Dr Claytor that I knew you at my last appt. I am unable to process in my mind how I will look in the mirror and how I will feel physically. I am so nervous!! But I do feel very at ease with Dr Claytor.

I had it this past Thursday.  It was supposed to be simple--take some skin out and only pain from incisions (it is moving the muscle that is painful.  Well when he went in there the pocket was too big for the implant so they were moving around more than he liked.  So he had to lift the muscle, take them out, and he used some of my tissue from other places in the breast to basically fill the pocket (stitch it back in).   So when I woke up I was like....ummm....oouuuccchhh.  Since I was surprised.  The first time they looked great at 3 days out (although I was prepared to be freaked because I read that like 90% of the time they look deformed at first until they settle. 

Anyways, I asked him if he could make them smaller while he was in there and he took me down a whole cup size.  I am psyched about that!  They are still sore and tender (moreso than the first surgery).   They are alittle cone-ish at the moment.  I call 'em my madonna boobs.  But I know they are still swollen and will settle a lot more.  I am sure I will love them, I already am thrilled with the size.

He is actually pretty funny sometimes.  When he had to take some stitches out he was filling the time with a joke about De-neice and De-nephew.  It was a hoot because you just don't take him for a funny guy ya know.  I think I have a minicrush on him LOL.  Talked to Harvard Pildrim about my panni denial (long story).  But basically I am not even going to bother with an appeal.  So if I ever end up doing the tummy it will be with my own $, so it won't be for a long time.  I'll have to get my Dr. Claytor fix with juvaderm LOL.

I'll be thinking about you tomorrow!  I know it will go great!  I can't wait to see how you feel when you first look down and see no tummy there!!!!!  What a weird and exciting feeling.  I think the last time I didn't have one was kindergarden LOL.

Try not to be too nervous, you'll do awesome.  It is so weird.  Once they put you on the table it is like 1 minute and you're out.  The anesthesia works so fast.  You'll be waking up with no tummy before you know it!

Good luck today!

WOOHOO you go and get it done!! I will be waiting anxiously to hear the news that you are awake and feeling ok.  Can't wait to see you!!! Prayers and thoughts all day!!

I have an appointment with Dr. Claytor today.  I'm going to ask how she did (I am sure she did wonderful!)  Just in case she is too sore and we don't hear from her today.  I'll be back later this afternoon.
