I have been totally miserable with my boobs the last week. 5 months post op and suddenly I was beleaguered with pain, itching, burning, aching, electric shock feelings etc. I was thoroughly pissed off till I realised I am having some sort of spontaneous transformation. The shape has changed beyond recognition (for the better) in about 5 days, and while I’m still wearing compression bras, I’ve measured myself this morning and have also dropped a cup size in the same period. I have a proper gap between them and everything (previously so swollen they touched in the centre). My cosmetic outcome till now wasn’t great naked (and I didn’t really care as my main driver was orthopaedic, and the difference there has been amazing, plus dressed I looked fine), but suddenly a good cosmetic outcome looks possible as well.
To celebrate, all the peach fuzz that had grown on my head for the last month however, fell out overnight. DH had noticed when he got up that I had lost a lot so left me a note to say if I wanted he’d pop home at 10 to shave it all for me, so just waiting for him. Bald I can cope with, mangy dog look I just can’t.
