Pain not so bad now just feeling drunk . This time was in a ward with others which was quite nice , I spread the word about Breastbuddies and all you lovely ladies .

Will update all tomorrow xxx

Awww Towie, a capsulectomy is very painful hun. Those of us that have gone through this can completely empathise. It does get better though hun Hug

Thanks for spreading the word hun. It would be nice to cyber meet your new found breast buddies.

You rest up now and I look forward to hearing more from you when you feel up to it. Xx

When having a straight forward replacement surgeons leave the old capsule to avoid the additional risk of infection, but with CC and some ruptures either a partial or a full capsulectomy is needed to remove the entire scar tissue so that a new capsule that hasn't hardened or distorted can then regrow in its place.

Its so painful because of the extensive work the surgeon needs to do to clean out the breast so its free of all the scar tissue. Xx

Ouch towie, that makes you even more brave, really relax and take time out to recover, you've been through a lot reading cookies explanation of what you've been through! I'm glad your all done now, feel better soon xx

Morning ladies

Thank you for all your messages and thanks for the info cookie as this feels so different than my first op as you say scars are more painful this time but I can report that after some tramadol last night I slept through the night .
This morning a little sore around the incisions and asthma
Playing up a bit because of ga but apart from that feeling good in myself and looking forward to breakfast in bed made but my personal nurse my fiancé .
Hope all you ladies recovering from your ba are healing well xxx

Thanks ladies ...little Jen yes the pain in the incisions is worse than my BA the actual implants feel fine not alien like when I had by BA guess that's because the skin has already been stretched ....am feeling a lot better today though ....I was wondering if I will drop and fluff again ? I see your having revision for cc too I hope all goes well for you xxxx

by Little jen 3rd June 2013, 11:30 am

Thanks for your response.
If you don't mind me asking, have you just had an op on one breast or both?
At least I now know what to expect, glad your feeling better today.
Cheers Hun xx

by towie 3rd June 2013, 11:41 am

Hi

Your welcome I had an op on both xx

Hi ladies

Update on my revision surgery and cc , it's day 5 and have just had my strip wash and changed my bra and had a look at boobies today there is a change on my right one its looking very flat as in the surface of the skin , this is how it looked last time and why I had to have revision surgery to remove the excess skin that came back after my first BA and nipple lift sad smile

. I am hoping to god that this doesn't mean I am going to have to go though a nipple lift again ! Do you think I am panicking too early ?

I do babe

It take time for our boobs to start taking shape - months infact! So try not to judge them just yet hun. You still have so many changes ahead of you and I know when I had my second revision, I like yourself panicked so many times thinking nothing had changed... But I was wrong hun. I just needed to be patient and they sorted themselves out over the next 3 months. Xx

by towie 7th June 2013, 11:05 am

Thank you for the reassurance Cookie I was in tears when I saw it today guess I have just to be patient which is not a virtue of mine Smike
