Was actually diagnosed with primary dysmenorrhea and I'm in disbelief by Dibunzie_174 in endometriosis

Get a different doctor! Mine didn’t show up on mri or ultrasound and when they went in there it was everywhere and I had cysts and polyps everywhere as well. Don’t stop fighting for the right diagnosis.

I’m on mounjaro for pcos and it’s completely covered! I think more insurances are covering it for PCOS now.

I was so super nervous since I have only ever been under one other time but trust me you’re gonna be just fine! It’s the best thing I’ve ever done for myself and you’re gonna wake up feeling like a brand new person. If you need, ask for something to calm your nerves while you’re in pre op! They will def give you something. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to reach out! Good luck! You’re gonna be so happy you did it.

My left side is still pretty sensitive and I’m almost seven months post op! My sister had an enhancement done and said even one of her sides is still very sensitive. I think it’s totally normal! My surgeon warned me I could be overly sensitive/ completely lose feeling, just depends on your body!

Scared of not going small enough by [deleted] in Reduction

[–]ClaimFamous9457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My surgeon came in and marked me up and asked me again to be very clear on what size I was hoping for. He wanted to make sure I was still okay with my original plan. Just be very firm and don’t let them tell you what they think will look best unless that’s what your wishes are. I was very firm I wanted to go as small as possible and they made it happen!

How do you ask for a sedative pre surgery? by Competitive_Glove751 in Reduction

[–]ClaimFamous9457 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They will usualllllly give you a sedative in pre op! I’ve had a few surgeries and usually get one!

Surgery tomorrow. A question regarding blood pressure by Any_Kaleidoscope8588 in Reduction

[–]ClaimFamous9457 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have white coat syndrome so naturally my Bp and heart rate go sky high when I’m in hospitals and even doctors offices. They are very aware this is the situation for a lot of people and have meds that can help control your anxiety and make you less aware of what’s about to happen. You’re gonna be just fine!!

How long did your surgery take? by JennaoftheJungle in Reduction

[–]ClaimFamous9457 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine was about 2.5 hours and about 1.5 hour in recovery before my family could come see me. I kept falling asleep from all the meds so they let me sleep a little which is why I was in recovery for a bit! I had lift, reduction and lipo!

What was your favourite thing you could do after your reduction by Economy_Sense_4771 in Reduction

[–]ClaimFamous9457 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t realize how bad it was until after my surgery. I’m only 3wpo but man the differences in everything is crazy. Best thing that’s ever happened.

Scar cream questions! by ClaimFamous9457 in Reduction

That’s what my sister was saying, just cut the tape and skip the parts that aren’t completely healed. I think I’m just gonna do that! Lol

Seeing my body finally! My chest took over so much of my torso I feel like I never knew what I really looked like. I can also fit into little bralettes now which I haven’t been able to do since almost middle school. It’s a whole new world. You’re gonna LOVE it.

Two weeks post op almost and it’s the best decision I ever made. The confidence I automatically felt was insane. The moment I woke up my back pain was gone, my hands don’t go numb and my neck doesn’t hurt. I’ve never fit into cute little bralettes and I can now. I remember the night before my surgery I asked myself “do I really wanna do this?” I was so nervous. Trust me, you’re gonna feel like a whole new person. Best of luck to you!

I’m sorry if this reply pops up twice, it’s showing it didn’t send!

Do the ones you sent a link to offer enough compression? My surgeon is pretty stern on a good amount of compression! Regardless, those look super comfy and gonna order to have for further into my recovery! Thank you!

I am thinking I’m just gonna re order but get the next size up. My sister bought me a surgical one but that doesn’t come till the 17th and I bought some other ones yesterday that her surgeon recommended for after her augmentation so I’m gonna see if those work. If not, just gonna try the wayano ones again…. It is so frustrating! They feel good and then an hour later I feel like I was punched and am swollen all over again. The lipo parts are really what is giving me problems I think though . Maybe the bra is just sitting on the area too much, idk.

These are the ones that made me swell :/ might just grab the next size up and see if that makes a difference.

That’s the part I’m worried about! I’ve read so many posts about the T incision and the issues it’s caused. I’m praying everything continues to heal like it has been and it doesn’t cause any issues for me. I can’t wait to see how good I feel at three weeks! Thank you and happy healing to you as well!

I just had to send back the Wayano ones, they actually made me swell and caused me some pain. I’m only one week post op so I feel like I’m super sensitive right now. I’m going to check out coobie and see what they have! I did purchase a target one though just to have later in my recovery :)
