Yay! Okay so finally, like everyone else says.. its MY story.

So, my BA was 7/15 (tuesday). I was scheduled to come in at 10:45am.. but at about 8:45am I got a call from one of the office girls asking if I could come in any earlier because the PS was finishing quick. So I hurried up, showered, blow dryed my hair and got on my clothes I have already pre-selected the night before. I live about 50 minutes from the facility so I wasn't able to get there that quickly.

I arrived around 10:25am and the nurse came out and gave my some forms to fill out. I did my pee test. And then they brought me into the pre-op room so I could get all marked up and put on my compression stockings and gown. The nurse was super nice and made me feel at ease. Then my PS came in and marked me up ( he likes my tattoos

) and went over size and what I wanted. He had said at my pre-op that he wasn't sure if he could get up to 400cc's.. he was lookin for around 325-375cc's. I had emailed him photos of patients he had done and told him I'd like closer to the bigger one or more in the middle. He then left and the anesthesiologist came in. He was real nice too and made me feel comfortable. He numbed up my arm and then put in the IV. He joked around saying to my fiance that I am probably going to be cussing and yellin at him at a lot while still drugged and not to get offended hehe. Then other nurse came in and told me it was time to go and I made sure to give my DF a kiss and hug good bye, at that point in time I was crying a bit cause Ive NEVER had surgery before and I was very nervous.

I got up and walked through two doors and into the op room. I get up on the table and the nurses situated my legs into the leg com pressures so i would not get any blood clots. I remember putting my arm with the IV in it down to my left side on the table and the anesthesiologist told me I'd start to feel something and then BAM, I was out. I dontt even remember closing my eyes.

1 hour and 45 minutes later I was awake in the recovery room. I was SUPER groggy and tired but I felt good. I even told my PS that if felt like I didn't have surgery .. I couldn't not feel any pain.

I guess I was out 30 minutes from the op room before I awoke. I asked some questions and then I found out from the PS that he put in 500CC'S!! Imagine my surprise when I was thinkin I was getting 325-375cc's. lol, I was VERY happy cause that was the original amount I have wanted but wasn't sure I could get. He tried 550's in my but he said my boobs started thinning out and lookin distorted at that point so he stuck with 500cc's. It took me a while to get up cause I felt so sick.. I almost barfed but then they gave my phenergan and I felt so much better.

The ride home I felt like I was drunk. cause my head kept fallin forward or backwards or to the sides. i didnt talk much. I slept most of the day tuesday and the night was great. Yesterday though was bad cause I threw up 3 times due to nauseaus from the pain killers but now im takin phenergan to make it so i dont get sick. And last night I was in major pain cause i had only takin one pain killer, not two.

I did see my results yesterday and I was so HAPPY and amazed. I have NO bruising or blood. They seriously look awesome and I am so happy. I will post some pics later. I am drugged up right now and wanna sleep some more. Ill post them later.

Yay for boobies!
