Did any of you NOT take RX pain meds after explant?

[Guest guest]

Hello, ladies. I was just wondering about the post-op pain you

experienced w/explant. When I had my implants put in I did not take

any of my prescription painkillers. I had taken them after a c-section

before and felt so bad from them that I didn't want to take them

again. After my breast augmentation I just used ice and took Tylenol

and was fine. I'm hoping I'll be able to do the same after the explant

surgery. I've read that it is actually an easier recovery than having

them put in. Has this been the case for you? Do you think I'll be

able to get by w/out the painkillers? I do have a pretty high pain

tolerance, after my c-section I think I only took 1 pain pill and the

rest of the time OTC pain medicine. I'm just wondering what I can

expect w/the explant surgery.

Thanks,

April
