hey girls
6 days post op now from having unders and thought the pain would be getting better by now. Its worse first thing but over past 2 days muscular pain and also ribs seem quite bad. The tapes are really tight sooo tight i cant put my shoulders down. I cant get out of bed on my own need a push lol otherwise the pain is really bad more on my sides and across top of boobs. Also been burning up and then going freezing cold more so on an evening. Sick of not being able to do anything for myself had to have someone with me all the time this wk just to be able to get out of bed or seat cant wait to get these tapes off as think this is part of the problem, roll on tuesday. I was expecting a lot of pain but everyone else on here a week after their op seems fine there is no way i could go back to work now or attempt to drive i have another 2 and half wks off thank god il need it to enjoy some of my hols lol. Has anyone else felt like this? Xx
I had 460 under muscle and I was exactly like you. My friends who had overs were text messaging me from the hospital with picso them walking around and I could barely move my hand to the painkiller button!!! I was like that for about two weeks, but it does get better. I had my surgery in may and am over the moon with the results. So I think it’s just the unders where it feels like a car’s parked on yur chest lol! luv claire,newcastle
hi girls thought i was the only one, i had 460 unders in october and the first week was awfull, the pain and discomfort felt like it was never going to end, the strapping was so tight it cut my skin and it felt like i was carrying a ten tonne weight on my front. believe me though mel once the strapping comes off it is so much better and in the week or so after it gets so much eaier, when are you due to get yours off hun?xxx
hey hun, youll feel amazing once your tapes are off as theyre quite restricting. it makes you feel really tight which is mistaken for pain. It gets loads easier. im 2 weeks and 2 days post op now xx
Hey girls,
The tapes are off finally it does feel a lot better but still in pain but I now feel I can breathe lol. I too was cut off the tapes when the nurse took them off today and I still cant get all the stickyness off my skin tried everything. My boobs seem quite far apart but have seemed to move a little in just one day and are not under my arms as much. Did anyone else feel they were wide apart when tapes first came off and has this changed? xxx
