1 day post op! Started by: Maryanne Louise

Well today is my first day, I will tell you my experience for girls who have waiting for the big day.

So I arrived at Preston first trust at 11am for my admission time, I was shown my day room by the nurse and was made comfortable instantaneously. I was informed that my op time wasn’t until 1700 which I was slightly upset about however I filled in some time by watching some films. (Bring some dvds to go into the tv is a good idea). I was seen by various people and told them my concerns and they put me at ease.

1700 came and I was showing the pre op room where I was put to sleep, they had me talking away and then I remember saying ‘I feel all sleepy’ and that was that.

I first remember waking up and coming back into my room a bit drowsy. No pain really just uncomfortableness and tightness. I did vomit 2x but I think that’s because I rammed an egg sandwhich down shortly after my op and it was too early.

I looked under my gown and seen them for the first time and was so emotional and happy.

I kept getting my blood pressure and temp taking every half hour and they were so lovely to me.

9pm came by this time I felt fine, the drosiness has worn off and I had been for a wee. I had the rest of my sandwhich and the nurse confirmed I was fit for discharge. I waited an hour while she got my meds and post op instructions sorted and I left in company of my Mam. I don’t have any bloatiness or anything and I’ve woken up with no pain at all I’ve slept on a 45 degree angle with a pillow under my legs and a V pillow behind my back.

I am 8.5/9stone max, size 8 , 5 foot 6 and had 32B breasts prior to op. I’ve had 400cc uhp overs. I haven’t taken a photo of them however have taken a photo of them in my macom when the.l nurse came in and helped me out that on.

Please orlandont worry you are all in safe hands and message me if you have any queries. You will be fine xxx
