Mr Singh was my surgeon but my results are great and my experience was great!
I’m going to be lazy and copy and paste from a post I created after my op!
I had a 1pm admission where I was shown to my room and got comfortable. A very nice nurse came to ask me some questions and I had to do a compulsory pregnancy test (so don’t pee before the nurse comes like I did!)
I was last on the list, Mr Singh came to see me around 2pm and made his markings. I was taken down just after 3pm. I was prepped by the anaesthetist and all I remember after that was waking in recovery at around 6:50pm when I asked if it had been done! I was very disoriented from the anaesthetic and the morphine I’d been given. Mr Singh came to see me and asked how I was, he also told me how much he removed but I’ve forgotten. I felt quote sick so I was given an anti sickness injection before being taken back to my room.
Once in my room, I had a much better grip on what was going on, I had and still currently have what I can only describe as cuffs like blood pressure ones around my calves to constantly massage my legs. I was also hooked up to a blood pressure machine and cuff which did that every 15 minutes.
Go forward a few weeks, I was healing very well up until 5 weeks when my right breast stopped healing and the wound opened. We believed this was because my stitches dissolved before my body was ready and it’s not a common thing to happen so don’t let it freak you out. We left it quite a while in the hope that it would heal on it’s own and it didn’t so I had wound revision surgery eventually and I healed perfectly from then on.
I don’t regret a single moment and I’d gladly do it all again.
