    To be honest hun,when I went to theatre,I layed on the bed,I felt a little prick in my hand and they were asking me what I do for a living,the next thing I remember I was lifting the covers looking at my boobs,lol,so excited and starving,lol,I was on antibiotics for about 5 days I think,and co codamol 3 times a day for the first couple of days.Arnica every couple of hours which definitely worked I didn’t get any bruising,started taking the Arnica before the op. No problems after that,xxxxx

    they inject you with the ga and they give you antisickness at the same time. it doesnt hurt tho huni like tina said just a lil prick then i felt really heavy then was gone, there really nice tho and talk to you loads to distract you.

    then after you have antibiotivs for 5 days after and co codamol, but ive had no pain at all. ive taken arnica since before the op (still taking it ) but i still bruised on the sides of ma boobs under my arms, but it doesnt hurt at all.

    whens your op huni? n what size you having? x x

    i think blondie had the same tablets as you jasmine and she had uplift, and all the girls who have just had ba seem to have had same as me, so maybe the uplift girls just need stronger painkillers cos theyve had more work x x

    I was given co codomol, ibuprofen and antibiotics.

    The ga was one of the things I was terrified about too as I’d never had it before, but it was fine. They insert the thing into a vein in your hand – just like if you were having your blood done and you just feel a little prick. You then get the oxygen mask over your mouth and the anaesthetic starts going into your arm which just feels a little cold. They’ll probably give you a bit if reassurance for a few seconds then you’re out like a light! It’s ace, I was totally amazed by it, still am! Xx
