Hello girls!!!! Omg im in on fri too!!!! I am now feeling very nervous!! My admission time is 9:30am – im an overnight stay in London so i may see you there Emma :crazy: I av been fine up until now but now it is sooooo close im shitting myself!! xx
hiya treacle, thanks for that, wow that must have been hard with not having any notice to stop! i took one vitamin c tablet yesterday and havent taken anymore. im gona stop 2moro as that will be 48 hours before my op! the more i think about stopping the more i want lol!! hope your feeling ok.xxx
Hiya Helen,
I had a late space which meant I had to stop smoking on the day of my consultation, they tell you to stop but to me that means my immune system is low, I feel like crap so Im more prone to get colds etc. I know a lady who smoked all the way through, her consultant told her not to stop because of the stress and she came out fine and her boobs r great LOL.
I got the cough too because of not smoking, but its fine … I still proceeded with my BA. Ive been home a week tomorrow, Im smoking but still have the cough and Im finding it abit difficult with my new boobs LOL.
Have you checked about the vitamins your taking tho? I used to take multi-vitamins every day when I told the nurse this she told me to stop taking them before my BA. Just thought you should know… I think different consultants say different things because Ive heard a few different storys.

hi there i am sat in hospital, had my boobs done this morning, i was so nervous i cried my eyes out, but seriously i am in hardly any pain they are just a bit uncomfortable, i keep looking down at my chest and thinking oh my god!! i have tits.. i was a smoker too and i struggled to give up, but i was told as long as you give up 48 before it will be fine, and 48 hours after, the only thing i wanted this morning was a cigarette, i was told the reason your suppose to stop is because it just takes longer to heal, please don’t worry! xx

Oh good, think the nurse was tryin to worry me!! At the end of the day im tryin my best an thats gonna have to do!!
