Day 12

10am - Getting an odd tingling sensation under the nipple/areola. Mainly on the right side. It comes and goes. Lasts for about 2 seconds then stops.

Took the areola tape off and cut the suture tails  today.

Bruising almost gone!

Going to post more pics now...  BIG difference between Feb 18 and Feb 28 pics...

10pm - The tingling sensation at the nipple/areola is a tad more severe now. Just a little painful. Took a few T3's.

Day 13

8pm - Posted the usual pics...  

Noticed a slight puffiness around the right areola. The RHS has a large hard lump . Actually the LHS has a bit of a lump as well but no where near as big. Will have to call Doc Fielding about it.

Still getting the intermittent pains near the right areola/nipple.

No change in size of the hard lumps...

Chest is sore sometimes. Feels a bit like a sunburn... wierd huh?

All the best for your recovery. Each day is a step closer to the finished article

Hey bambu, are you back at work yet. I had my surgery with jcf last wed i can't believe how big of a difference there is. It was a similiar case to yours may be even worse . Just was wondering how long it took before you went back to work.

Day 22

Right side breast is very sore today. I think it is a result of the scar tissue. Right areola/nipple area is slightly swolen today as well :-/.

Still getting the 'shooting' pains in right A/N area.

Right breast seems to be enlarged due to scar tissue.

Purchased some T1's today as my T3's ran out and JCF gave no refill auth.

Bambu,
concerning the scar tissue,why don't you buy one of thoes battery operated massagers. The kid that vibrate and send the impulsed down into the the tissue. It may help.

Also there is a type of blue gel, I don't know what its called of hand. When I played football, they use to use it on soft tissue injurys and the scaring that followed. It worked very well on muscle injurys, and since the skin and fat are on the top of the muscle, it should work better on that area.
