update 4 days post op

Well thought I’d update……I’m 5 days PO up & about now feeling a lot better, I can move my arms more & im sleeping all night still sleeping upright but waking up in a lower position. No pain just feeling tight around & under my boobs. I’ve tried my M&S sports bra on 36F & im off to buy a 36G as it’s to tight……I’m just hoping my final size isn’t 36G but what will be will be. Still finding myself bloated even though I’m going to the toilet (sorry). Can’t wait to get the strapping off now to see the results

Hi sounds like you are doing great. I have just been for my first walk 2 days post op & still very sore & feeling sicky. My sports bra seems to be a little tight around my mid drift with swelling is this like you?x

Hi Bomber I’m finding that with the band but don’t know if it’s cause of the strapping still being on…..its so confusing on what size you need cause they say it needs to be a snug fit to support but I’m not sure…..I’m hoping the Nurse will give advice tomorrow. Glad your up & about I think I was still feeling sore at 2 days. Are you taking co-codamol ? X

Hi

Still pretty sore today but only taking paracetamol. I have ensured I move my arms around in circles for the muscles but my right one seems to spasm a lot more & is more tender. I don’t know if this is because I am right handed & have been using it more & may have jerked it but my arm is ok to lift. I have been sleeping ok, but once I wake up & move the soreness starts. X
