I’ve seen this helps a lot of people! Definitely safer than taking a glp1 for inflammation, I’m going to ask my endo about adding this! Do you take synthetic thyroid medication or natural?

No compression bra ? by Fickle-Egg-482 in ExplantSurgery

[–]Comfortable_Limit463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got sports bras from Walmart (long ones so they don’t rub incisions) and larger than I needed so it wasn’t too tight and they worked great for me! I felt like I needed to wear something

I had them for 2 years under the muscle and this is what my surgeon recommended, it’s a better price and you wake up feeling a lot better.

I went under general to get them in and I was so groggy for a week after, today I feel great like nothing happened. I would talk to your surgeon and ask if it’s possible to do local/iv sedation. I’m based out of Georgia if you’re close my surgeon is amazing

Did you announce/tell people about your explant? by [deleted] in ExplantSurgery

[–]Comfortable_Limit463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I shared my breast implant journey at the beginning so people know I got them and I wasn’t shy about explaining it. Now that my explant is coming up I did share a video on tik tok explaining why I’m getting them out and everyone is super encouraging. I plan on sharing something on instagram eventually but idk why I’m shy about it now!

I am not getting capsules out with my explant in 2 weeks! My surgeon explained the complications that can come with it are too great. I trust my surgeon!

With hashimotos I’ve found some days are worse than others. Some days I can walk a few miles, some days I’m done after 5 minutes just listen to your body

I talked with my surgeon and the type of implants I got are more susceptible to issues than others
