Afternoon Liz,
After my surgery last Tuesday, so far it has been a walk in the park, I did not have the need for pain killers after surgery (I had more pain after each fill), no drains either, I was only in overnight but if they let me I would of gone home that afternoon. The only problem I have had is I had to walk to the hospital yesturday to get my dressing changed by the nurses as it was not as waterproof as it was supposed to be (or sweating on the treadmill may have lossened them........surgery Tuesday, back on the treadmill Thursday) and my appointment with my surgeon is not until next Monday. I think I may be a C or D....... that is just one of the details they forgot to mention, but they feel comfortable and I am happy with them. As my tattoos will not be the standard run of the mill nipples I have to eventually go to one of my tattooist to get mine done as my surgeon does not have the colours I want or the confidence to do them (she did an awsome job with every thing else though). Even though we do not really have the need to wear bras if you are ever looking for a comfortable one Ahh bras are a good option, they are soooooo comfortable. . Well I hope your surgery goes well and you are happy with the results.
Take care
regards
Kim
