Angry Got a Respose to the LETTER I WROTE...

Got a RESPONSE to the LETTER I WROTE.. (Sorry for typo)

Okay so after the letter i wrote to them. The manager called me yesterday. (Keep in
mind, its the same girl that has always been eager to talk to me and so
nice to me) and told that there is nothing else they could do about the
price. So i was like "fine.." i can deal with that. Then she goes on
and starts to tell me that she looked at my pictures and don't see
ANYTHING wrong with me. Not even the nipples. I WAS SO FURIOUS.. that i
began to cry and yell at her. I told her that personally you never saw
my boobs in person and only by pictures that the dr. took. I told her
that i take a million pictures that doesn't show anything but have
friends/bf/family IN PERSON say that they see it. And i told her if you
clearly look at the picture that i sent to dr. that I took you will
see. And she said that she did look. So i said did you see the 2 inch
ripple in there? Do you know how big 2 inches is? Am i imagining?? And
she pauses and say "well you know Amy here has ripples and I have
ripples too"... OMG my freaking blood was boiling. I yelled "if you
guys wanna charge me then fine i'll pay but don't tell me there is
nothing wrong with me and that I was really pay all this money just for
fun".. and then she starts to tell me that she is sorry that i'm upset.
And that she says she sorry that i feel the way i do and they will give
me a redo"...

I'M F* PISSED. Its one thing that they want to charge me,fine.... i
will deal with that but to patronize me by saying she doesn't see
anything wrong with me and then later says WE ALL HERE HAVE RIPPLES
(referring to herself and coworker there that both have BA). I want to
drive down to that office and beat the f* outta her. I feel belittled
of my flaws and she have the nerve to downplay my feelings and say WE
ALL HERE HAVE RIPPLES.. Do i not have the right to address my flaws?

I am trying to deal with all of this right now. It is a lot to take in.
I don't want to go to another doctor because i've gotten quotes already
and they will charge me 7500-9000k just to switch to silicone. I don't
think that my PS did a horrible job since i had problems already but to
belittle my issues and make me feel like they don't exist when he
already saw them and said "thats just the way you healed". If he and
his office truly believe there was nothing wrong then why didn't he say
"please show what you are talking about" or "let me measure you to show
you you are mistaken" but instead acknowledges all the issues and said
"thats the way you healed"... WTF

I don't know what to do right now and i finally decided to post the
picture so you guys can see what i wake up to every morning (no fail)..

I am here to vent so please don't patronize me ladies and say its not
bad because its ugly to me and always will be until i try silicone. If
then, that doesn't help then i will accept my body.

Thanks to you girls that understand where I am coming from....

Thank you for letting us see what you are talking about. It helps us to see why you are so upset.

At what point did the rippling start? If you look at your other pictures, there seems to be nothing wrong at all, but that one picture clearly shows some rippling. Is it when you move a certain way, or is it there the whole time?

Oh my!!
As you know I did see those pictures, so I do know and saw exactly what you are unhappy with.
I am not sure what the answer is. It seems like she was trying to say, "this is as good as it gets", and if thats true.. then you may not want that ps operating on you.
I understand how you feel.. what might be acceptable for them, or for her, or for me, doesnt mean its ok for you, and that doesnt make you wrong either.
I know you are upset, but try to calm down, its not going to help anything..
How about if you make another appt, with the ps.. and bring someone along? I really feel you need to ASK and get an ANSWER if your ps is fairly sure he can correct your particular issues.. the last thing you need is another surgery for nothing..
If he seems unsure.. then as bad as I know you dont want to, you may want to consider seeing someone else. I am just not sure what to say to help you.
I am sending prayers for you lovely.. and peaceful energy.. and hopefully this gets sorted out for you. For her, the office manager to say that "they" all have ripples is really absurd.. and I would be upset, but I would also be a bit "worried" about letting him/ps work on me again if even his OWN staff is saying more or less, "ripples are normal and to be expected".
Sorry for you... really...
xxxxx

It is there 99% of the time. No special angle or anything. In pictures taken you cannot see whatsoever. But in person its something you cannt miss when you look.
I just showed a friend (the one that i referred to go to my dr. and she already put down her deposit and cant take back)last night my uneven and ripplings. Its not a naked eye kinda issue. She said she had no idea and was surprised how well i hid it. Considering i only see her at clubs and bars. When we're drunk and its dark.. lol...
It started about 1 month post op. Dont quote me i cant remember exactly but did get worse. When i wear padded/pushbra bras, those are the worse. Which sucks because i love those bras...!

Well she reminded me that Silicone may or may not help. Which i am fully aware that it is beyond any control. BUt i want to give it a shot before expecting that this is the BEST that its gonna get for me.
Her attitude does need adjustment but she doesnt intimidate me at all. And I do feel that i should go somewhere else but my friend made me realize that going to someone NEW and paying more to just switch implants may not be worth it and i agree that I may not have comfort in any dr. But my dr. knows my body already and I will clarify what i want . Which is switching to silicone implants. If i consider him I will definitely sit down and get things understood for both ends.

oh lovely, I am sorry you are unhappy with your current implants... I have faith that your switch to silicone will have beautiful results!!! Keep me posted and let me know how it goes.. When do you think you'll go in for the re-do? do you have to wait a few more months or will the PS do them now?

i'm so sorry...i can't believe she would say that they all have them so deal with it pretty much. I think if you are unhappy and see them yourself, then that's what matters NOT that "oh everyone here has them." I think that was wrong of her to say..I guess she was trying to make thngs better but obviously made it worse. I would have been p.o'd myself....i truly hope everything works out for you in the end and you are happy ((hugs))
