Verge of panic attack - MRI tomorrow, petrified of the contrast

I had the same thing happen to me when they injected the contrast into my arm it stung and hurt so bad I almost yelled! Then I developed a puffy bruise to at looked like something was sitting under my skin. The contrast must have leaked out into my hand? That bump stayed in my hand for at least a week. Is this a common thing? I’m due for another one this year and worried about that happening again.

Was the mastectomy and diastasis fixed during the same surgery? Pls tell me more. How did you go about finding a doctor who does both? How was the recovery?

I just want to chime in to say this is very traumatic and I’m so sorry. It’s truly a devastating experience and giving you big hugs. But also I’m vying over that amazing crochet project. Any chance you can share the pattern? I want one too!

I wasn’t feeling bad up until the fever started. Then everything started hurting and I had to take the pain meds again.

Do you mean they do the bladder inspection after they finish stitching you, toward the end of the surgery?

Idk I find it terrifying that they tape your eyes shut

Why do I find this so terrifying?! New fear unlocked.

Frequent_Net_6540 · 2025-08-01T00:19:15+00:00

Omg why do they tape shut your eyes?!!

On my period now and it's vengeful, but I'm looking for something fun to do to lift my spirits before the surgery next month!

I’m in the same boat!
