Pain advice… pleaae Started by: Gail

Gail/hannah are you both unders or overs? My surgery isnt until 28th sept but the more
Im reading the more im thinking do i need more time off work!

Added you both hope you dont mind xxx

I had overs Hun! The boob pain is bearable it isn’t sore it’s uncomfortable. Mine keep vibrating at the moment which is odd haha!!! It totally depends on ur job, I have took 2 weeks off work and I’m glad cause there is no way I cud imagine going back after 7 days as I’m day 4 now and stil feeling tired and not much energy!!
I think if I hadn’t reacted as badly as I did to the antibiotics I wud be okay. And I had overs Hun xx

Not dramatic at all, I too was convinced I was dying and that my body was rejecting my implants! Never been so frightened in my life I was just crying constantly. I’m not back at work until the 24th sept but I have a very high impact job so need all the rest I can get before I go back.you may well be feeling lots better by Monday cause I feel more like me again today at day 4. And the sickness has stopped, I had to get different antibiotics and painkillers which cost me £30 which I wasn’t happy about but it has made me feel so much better that I probably wud have paid about £500 for them haha.
I hope you feel better soon, I understand completely how awful you are feeling. I hated my new boobs the first 2 days cause I was in agony but now I’m starting to like them and appreciate them. Each day gets better 100% even though at the time it doesn’t feel it. Keep fighting girl!!!!! Xxx

Have u been given painkillers and muscle relaxant? It is very painful I must agree with u.. I had unders as well.. Still hurts doin something’s now and I’m 2 weeks post op… Mine started to get a lot better after the first 4 days but I also took ibuprofen an that helped a lot xxx

I was achy for the first few days but kept topped up with the painkillers so I could cope. I was abit sick on about day 4 though which I think was a mixture of all the medication. The small plasters on the incisions might start irritating you abit too ( i couldnt wait to get them off) and your boobs may feel abit tender like sunburn. Don’t worry it will get better though and all worth it for perfect boobs, I think haha. I’ve got my 6 week check fri and I’m still a lil bit tender now esp in bed for some reason! X

Haha just try and chill. It was horrible getting up at first esp up out of bed. It does ease off though. Yeah the first couple of days it hurt to push things like door handles etc and sometimes I’d forget I’d just had the op then be like ouchhhh lol xx
