Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 I had my explant yesterday and am feeling pretty good. The surgery was performed at about 10:30am and I was home by 2pm. Gord made me some lunch and I slept for about 3 hrs. His bro and wife came over so we all went out for dinner. I can't believe that I was up and around and not nauseous. I feel great. As for how I feel about not having implants anymore......I feel great!!!!!! I lifted my shirt when I got home and got a full view of what my breasts look like and altho small (way smaller now) I just smiled from ear to ear. This is the real me I said to myself. I have clear plastic tape across the incisions right now so they are a little misshapen but that will change next week when that comes off. I love my new body. I don't care if I don't have a big bust. Thats not whats going to make me a better person. I'm really happy with the results. I guess maybe I was ready for this wasn't I? I haven't had to take any pain pills.....I've been tender but not enough that it has caused me any great discomfort. I did go this morning to Wal-Mart to buy a new bra that will hold me in place to prevent the tenderness from jiggling around. I can sleep in this one as well and that will help with the comfort while laying down. I will check back in soon and see how you all are doing.
