I really don't think i'm happy. It seems like there's too much gland that's been left. He did say he would leave some so it wouldn't cave in but from looking at other peoples case, i think he could of taken more out.  It's pretty much the same size but less pointy. When i look down, i can still see 2 humps, it looks more natural but i want it a bit flatter. I'll post a few pictures when i can get hold of a camera.

I'm in very little pain, so I'm not having a lot of medication at the moment but sometimes i can feel a tingling sensation down both sides of my body, which lasts no more than 2 seconds...any of you guys know what that might be? My chest is still a little tender when i touch it but that's to be expected.

I've also posted post-op pictures in another thread but i guess i might as well post it here too:
3 days post-op

Tingling is good.  It means your tissues are reconnecting in your chest, leading to getting more feeling back in your skin.  I'm actually hoping for MORE tingling, as I'm still pretty numb after 5 weeks post-op. 

P.S.  I think your results look great!

Thanks.
I'm feeling quite a bit of tingling at the moment.  I'll be seeing my surgeon on Tuesday for a check up.  He called me the other night asking how i was doing and gave me some moral support.  He said i could cancel the check up and go a few more weeks laters, since i'm in very little pain at the moment.

Also, how do people wear these compression vests in Summer?! It's winter and it already makes me pretty hot!

I noticed a few tiny dots of blood on my compression vest after sleeping on my front last night. Hopefully that's nothing to worry about.

Now one of my breasts has quite a big yellow bruise around it, which im kinda surprised about, since i thought it would come pretty much a day or two after the surgery but it's come 6 days post op. 

I keep my vest off maybe 30 minutes a day and thats just to have a shower.
