Pics of My Complications and how i look now...

This has been a really hard decision to make and now i know i am having my op to fix me up soon i feel ready to share some pics with you.

Surgery does have risks and there can be complications but not only did i endure these i was unfortunate enough to have a surgeon who did not deal with it the right way so not all complications will end up looking like mine, i was treated completely wrong.

I was quite angry sortin out the pics i am comfortable sharing as there is no way i should have been left in that condition in the first place, the way i was dressed up post explant, it's all a complete bodge job and very unprofessional.

I can't wait to share my new pics with you once i have been fixed up in November and i thank all of you for helping me through this really tough time in my life.

PM me for password details, it is a new album and i have left out the really gory pics but there is still some severe bruising and open scar and exposed implant shots so please be aware before you request to view.

Love & Hugs....ShootingStar

let me know here if you would like to see and i will PM you, my inbox is full and i may miss your PM, if you do PM me and don't hear back then leave a message on this thread, thanks x x

i think i would like a peek please hun? xx

I'd like to have a peek please hun. It must be really hard- I took some pre op photos the other week and it was quite difficult to put them on

xx

Hey SS,

I have been following your story from the beginning and I'm really happy to see how far you've come, it's great that you are now finally in the right place to show these pictures. I'd like to see of poss hun xxx

I'm really angry at him for you now.

Thank You for showing me (and don't worry I have a strong stomach ;) xx

thank you hun, i think its important to see the flip side of surgery, im so sorry it has happened to you, ive had a look, and does make me think twice, i just hope this doesnt happen to anyone else. you are an inspiration, and i cant wait to see the photos after your new boobies, you deserve to have wonderful new ones.

im all weepy now (time of the month too) but also cos like Jessica have followed your story and BA dairy, and talked to you on here, feel like i know you.

You deserve to be happy hun

Could I have a look please hun?
xx

Thanks girls, it was very difficult sorting these pictures out today, i felt nauseous since and actually vomitted just now

They take me back to a very frightening and terrible time but i am proof we do get through whatever is thrown at us and i look forward to showing you the true outcome in November, i don't expect perfect boobs and in reality i'm never going to have them perfect now, had i been 10yrs younger i may have been more bothered about this but right now i am greatful for them both to be remotely similar and in November they will be just that x x

Hi SS!!

Well you have moved on in the past week, it must be soo emotional and tiring for you right now, however, it is a great move forward to leave all this behind you now, and a needed part of healing for you

I am soo soo proud of you!! I would be happy to share your pics. SS if you are comfortable to share with me.
Biggest hugs being transmitted to you babe...you are doing just great xxx

Oh ShootingStar I am so sorry this happened to you! I knew from your descriptions in your BA diary it was bad but I can't imagine how scared and in pain you must have been after seeing these pics. It's like a nightmare. The surgeon who did this to you - is he still practicing? He deserves to be struck off!

Moving on... I'm really thankful you had the courage to show people this because it's important that people see the flip side of cosmetic surgery and how things can go wrong sometimes. And I'm also over the moon for you that you have found someone who will be able to fix the mess that your previous PS created. Have you looked into suing him? You deserve compensation for the huge ordeal you have been through these last few months. (i.e. you shouldn't have to sell your car to pay for this second op, it wasn't your fault!) xx

Jess xx

Thanks Jess, he is denying ever seeing me at the moment and ignored emails, i don't think i am able to get anywhere suing him because he is in Belgium and it's alot harder to claim medical negligence, which he's clearly guilty of. He dealt with my internal bleed and explant appaulingly and put my health at serious risk.

I have contacted the GMC and put in a complaint and my new surgeon has given me some great info where to go from here, i also have every faith my surgeon will do a really good job to fix me up. I'm gutted the car has to go but it is a less of a stress than living like this so will deal with that after

x x x

Yeah that's definitely the way to go now - you need to get this sorted out asap for your mental health and then think about all the rest later. It would be great if you could get something back after the hell you've been through. I'm thinking of you and good luck with your revision surgery I'm sure you will have great boobies soon enough. xx

could i have a look hunny. xxxxx

Hi hunny,

Could I please see your pics? Like the other girls have said, I think it is important to see the flip side of surgery and not to think that it is something to be taken lightly.

xxx

Thank you Serena and Mia for you lovely messages, i have coped because i have gained alot of strength from the support of the girls on this forum and i hope i can give something back to others going through similar complications, everything happens for a reason and it just wasn't my time.
I will try again in 7 weeks time

Aw your welcome Kay and thank you for your support hunni x x

Thank you for letting me see your pictures hun.

I must say that I am shocked. I have been following your story on here but did not realise exactly what you have been through until I just looked at your pictures.

What a terrible experience you have had and it must have been terrifying for you.

It has actually brought a tear to my eye.

You are so brave and I am glad that after this horrible journey, you are finally on the road to recovery.

Chin up hunny, we know you'll be fine.

xxx

Aw thank you Marie, it has been a hell of a journey and that's why i couldn't face going into a new year still stuck in it.

I look forward to getting some new ones i can show off and be proud of x x

I look forward to seeing them!

xxx

Thanks for letting me see your pics, you really are so so brave and I am feeling very humbled.

I look forward to seeing your new fixed up boobs in 7 weeks or so xxx

Hi SS,

Would you mind if i had a look at your pics please? I think it is important to see the other side of comestic surgery and what can happen to anyone of us. xx
