Tissue expanders and reconstruction

Hi, haven't been on here for a while and just found your posts. I have just had stage 2 done of my reconstrucion - so tissue expanders out, real fake boobs in. I too had really high uncomfortable expanders - my ps thought the left expander my have rotated 90 degrees, it was really obvious. I also felt the shape was kind of truncated - cut off so not rounded. So since the silicone implants way less hard and fake feeling, much lower and softer although two weeks after surgery there is still some swelling. My PS wants me to wear a compression garment for 6 weeks, 24/7. I was originally quite large - I think your size does matter as well as chest shape etc. So my implants are quite large but compared to my original breasts I look flat - compression bra adding to the mono boob look as well. I have had more pain with this surgery than the original mastectomy but since I virtually had none then it really isn't bad and I haven't had to take any medication.
