Hi SYLV1E thank you for your message. How did you surgery go? I hope everything went well and you are on the mend.
I was told my injection will be done in the aerola, close to the nipple and I am absolutely freaking out!!! During my Magseed procedure yesterday nurses called over one of the staff members from the department where those injections are performed. While the chat with her was very helpful I am still very anxious especially since I know the injection site 😭😭😭
Oh yes, machines freak me out as well, MRI mainly, just can't deal with it, but I'm glad you told me the head doesn't going inside this machine. However it still looks tight? 😑
I am trying hard to be brave but it is so difficult.
Thank you again for your reply.
I pray all of us come out of this healthier and stronger 🙏

My surgery went really well and my recovery has been reasonably easy but then, I only had a lumpectomy.
I don’t blame you for being nervous about the injection site, I would be too. After all, that’s a very sensitive area but I’m sure it will be over before you know it. Mine was 2cm from the nipple but it was still a bit scary. If you are anything like me, you will be only concentrating on that next step so I think that’s why we hyperfocus on that procedure to the point that we can become overwhelmed. I really depended on the wonderful support on here to help me to understand what to expect.
You’ve got this! You are stronger than you realise! 💕
