Increased breast pain after wearing strap/stitch coming out from nipple??
Then of course tonight I removed a small scab from near my nipple where the vertical incision starts below the nipple and there was a good 1/2 inch of stitch attached to it. Nice. I snipped it off because as I gently tugged it the separation got larger. I think if I pulled much more my nipple might have fallen off. I had a little opening there a week or so ago, but it had healed nicelly. Or so I thought.
What is the deal??? I'm falling apart! I just want to feel better damn it!!!!
I'm off to ice my boobs....

Did you really almost rip your nipple off? Holy crap!!
I'm sorry I'm having a rough go of it too. Thankfully I'm not almost nippleless alone!

I still sleep with a bra and a pillow for side sleeping because I find they wake up achy if they "hang" at all in the night. KWIM?
And I'm still spitting the occasional stitch as well. Damn boobs.
Just thought I'd let you know you aren't alone...
Thanks for chiming in!!

Why you gotta be riding my coat tails--first birthday, now surgery day. Notice I do everything first. Why? Because I'm awesome. Well, hopefully the next date we share in common will be hitting the lottery day!!! :) Of course, I'd like to go first on that one too so I can shut you up once and for all about this takeover nonsense you keep dreaming about! :)
And on top of it all you're giving me homework? Bored? Me? Never. Okay, maybe a little since I've been laid up with this surgery, but first I must sleep.
Zzzzzzzzzz....

I find my brain is "foggy" still. I forget things that make no sense to forget. Things that are pretty important. To Do lists are a MUST now that I'm back to work.
I have always been a stitch "spitter". I clip them or pull them - whatever gets rid of them. Otehrwise they cause problems and pimples and generally drive me nuts. My PS said to just clip them off if they come out of the skin and can't just be pulled out. So that's what I do. My one boob spit a KNOT - that was weird. I kinda had to dig it out. Gross I know. But I left it alone for about 2 weeks and it was getting really nasty and troublesome. Since I picked it out, everything has healed nicely.
People act like plastic surgery is the most glamourous thing ever--umm, bull**** is all I can say. Drains ripped out, nipples ripped off, numbness, shooting pains, stiches causing havoc, keloids, and generally just feeling like crap--I can hardly stand all the glamour!!
I find that I can't recall very simple words. Like couch. Very aggravating.
I probably should be careful what I wish for. Because of the numbness I didn't really feel it when I pulled the drain out so that was a nice bonus!!
Hope you had a good weekend!

The other day I had to drop off a job application. Deadline 4pm. I needed to print it out at work and make 6 copies. I was driving home from work at 3:20 when I realized that I had forgotten all about it. I made it by running home, printing out all 7 copies, and SCREAMING into the parking lot at 3:59.
Sometimes I feel like I have early onset alzeihimers. Or however you spell that (I can't remember). lol
