5 more sleeps

Well it's 5 more sleeps till my exchange surgery, I confess I overdo Dr Google, however I realised that I was so excited at the prospect of finally getting to this point it has been 7 months since my mastectomy, that I forgot to ask how long I would be in for ... Now as well as my bilateral implants he is doing a bit of tidy up of excess skin so I am thinking at least overnight... How long have others been in for after this procedure? Hugs Chris

    It was overnight for me.  I had no problems at all with it and it was imediately more comfortable.  He did a fat graft at the same time.  That caused lots of bruising but looked far worse than I felt!  Good luck with an uneventful process and look forward to being more comfortable again!

    Cheers
