Hi Mechelle, I've lost where we are up to in our conversation but didn't want your question going without a reply.
Yep,I ended up having a free TRAM as they did take a small amount of muscle. I was discharged Monday this week, now Sunday night. I'm getting better each day, but fairly full on. I'm surprised how great the breasts feel. Very natural. Just need some shaping I think, but we'll see in a few weeks.
After being told I would have no sensation in my torso area, my breasts are actually very sensitive so I feel more comfortable wearing a bra of some kind. So hopefully this will settle down a bit. It's not all over but at least there is some feeling.
I can't believe you are allergic to stitches! You are very unlucky. Are you happy with your work? Or is it too early to say?
