just a few things

i know it has been a while since i posted something worth anything. i don't even have a real reason, it's not like i have been busy.

i guess i will do a quick update...

i went to the my plastic surgeon 3/27 when he first took a look he decided the right side was too tight so he wouldn't fill it. i was filled with 50cc on my left side, he then took of the remaining dermabond, which is the "glue" that was holding the incision together the left side looked great but, on the right there is a 1/2 inch section that is not all the way healed. it looks a little "raw" like my scab came off early. i was instructed to put antibiotic ointment on twice a day and cover it... no big deal, i've seen way worse open things at work lol. leaving i had 435cc on the left and 375cc on the right, talk about lop sided, it wasnt too bad because previously the right sat up a little closer to my collar bone and now the left does as well, so it was okay.

i went back in today 4/3 and he said that it looks way better, i couldnt tell because i have looked at it 14+ times in the past 7 days lol. he put 25cc in the right and asked if i wanted to wait to put more in the left so we can catch up a little. of course i happily agreed! so as of today i have 435cc on the left and 400cc on the right. not too bad!

the plan is to reach 500cc-535cc then 6 weeks after i get to that amount i will go back in for a second surgery to take my hard expanders out, and put in my new squishy gummy bear silicone implants! I CANNOT WAIT! lol. hopefully the surgery goes well, and i don't stop breathing and none of that other bad stuff happens. ;) hoping for june, but it is looking more like july. oh well! i am way beyond blessed.

tomorrow is 6 weeks post-op. time sure has flown by, especially seeing that i have just been sitting around. i was told last week that i could possible go back to work it is up to me. i am not sure i am ready to go. no scratch that i am ready to go back to work because i am bored i am not ready to spend 12 hour days with other people it has been so nice to have so much time to myself and do tons of nothing! i am considering going back to work next week, i still have not fully decided. i know i will have some help but, with others having their own patients i don't want to be stuck where i am waiting for someone elses help i guess we will just see. if i don't go back next week it will probably be the week after. or maybe the week after that lol.

well i think i am going to head to bed... just wanted to update since i have dragged it out for so long.
