I’m not sure if this is normal but I’m still experiencing significant pain on and off. It’s worse on a morning.
My right implant is sitting much higher than my right and feels like I’ve pulled a muscle in it if I move in a certain way, I still can’t move my right arm and I’m back to work Monday!
I’m sure as I had unders, that I would take longer to heal than if I had overs but should I be doing something to help speed up recovery?
I haven’t found MYA to be very helpful at this post op stage, I also have a daughter who turns one next week, and although I have a very hands on husband I have still been doing the odd thing (not lifting)
Is it possible Have I over done it?

@vikifree I’m wondering if I’m over doing it too – I’ve been pottering around the house quite a bit not lifting anything heavy or difficult but gaffing about and this morning was really difficult getting up my chest feels a lot tighter and my posture is terrible! Im 3 days post op today.. going to try and do nothing today and see what tomorrow morning is like.
i agree i feel like my PC doesn’t really care what i do now which is a shame because i really valued her opinion before the op!

I don’t know how to rest lol, I’m sure I haven’t over done it but I’m worried about how I’m healing.
My posture is also bad as I daren’t stretch, feel like I’ve done ten rounds in a boxing ring!! X
I’m fine all day long but come evening time I start with a pulling type pain…that overnight really disturbs my sleep and wake up in the morning super stiff …soon as I’m up it’s gone!
Think we had our op on same day and I had unders too…. I also have an 11 month old and although I’m not lifting him I can’t help but involve in the odd thing ! So don’t know if I’m overdoing it…that and my obsession with keep trying different bras and tops on repeatedly when it kills to get dressed once never mind 10 times!!!
I’m gonna attempt to drive tomorrow as I’m back in work Monday!!
Viki honestly everything you have explained happened to me, first 8 days were awfull read my wall.
Not too bad now still a little pain . Right boob is higher on my chest then left too think it has something to do with it being your most prominate arm !
Am just waiting now they are dropping slowly but still really hard to touch.
I can’t lift my hands above my head and have to walk really slow!
I am not going back to work going to get a sick note.
Hey huni im on my 3rd. Op and right is huge compered to left one xx
thsnks for listening to me moan ladies!
Hannah, I was back to work today, so most definitely overdoing it now haha. I got through my first day back though….. Was a very long day. Survived without painkillers until 3pm and I couldn’t handle it after that so had to cave.
Overall today has been my best day though pain wise.
Paula- mornings are worst for me too. Can’t seem to stay sat upright all night always end up on my back eventually. So wake up super stiff, that moment you initially gave to get up is really uncomfortable.
Tara, I am right handed I wonder if that’s what it is then! I’m hoping I get back to as close to normal soon, the muscle spasms are hard to treat.
Ayesha you a certainly a braver woman than me, although the new dollys look amazing!!! You must be chuffed.
