Questions about breast lift and implants
SusieQ2019 replied to Kingb40's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Congratulations on your upcoming surgeries. I would say follow your doctors advised and what you are comfortable with. Do you wear form fitting clothes?. Only you know your body and the comfort level you feel when you are dressed in certain outfits. Wishing you the best! -
Agree with you @Dabeyhive and in some cultures people are taught to be respectful to people in authority and in some cases people are just not confrontational and do not know how to deal or handle conflicts.

Awesome. Congratulations!!!

Yes, starting my pre OP on Wednesday.

Exactly @jenifaoh. -
I am having my surgery on the 29th and starting my pre OP dier on the 17th. From what I've read from your experience and others, everyone's experiences are different. I am hoping for an easy surgery, but if there are hiccups along the way I have a small support system in place. I am glad to hear that your family are taking care of you, and that you are doing much better.

Sorry to hear that you had a rough start. How is everything going now,are you getting in your protein and water and have you been loosing. Thank you for sharing your experience.

October 2018 Sleever Hit Goal Just shy of 6 months

You look fantastic. Stories like yours give me encouragement. -
I am not a smoker but regarding whether or not the surgeon will not do the surgery. My nurse told us that if we do not follow the pre OP the surgeon will stop the surgery and not move forward. Sometimes it's not about the money. Safety of the patient comes first. Wishing you luck with your surgery.

I haven't told anyone at work and plan to keep it that way. All they know is that I am going on vacation. No need to feel guilty. They already see me drinking protein shakes and passing on the birthday cakes. At this point they probably assume I am on another extreme diet. lol. -
I am so sorry you had to experience this kind of treatment at a time when you are at a vulnerable state. I had to help my son inject blood thinner and it is a very stressful and delicate process. Please report her, because she may cause another patient harm. Clearly she brought her bias to the workplace which is unfortunate and unacceptable. Wishing you the best.

I had to get clearance from my PCP, sleep test, psychology, endoscopy and cardiologist who sent me to get the stress test. I go to their support group on my own as it i s not required.

My Aetna plan required 3 visits with a dietitian/nutritionist and 4 consecutive visits with my surgeon. I was not required to do a medically supervised weight loss.

I went to my support group yesterday and the special speaker was a plastic surgeon from the hospital. He said its really genetic, age and other factors determined how quickly the skin snap back. You can get good weight trainers from Amazon. My doctor said no tight clothes within 3-4 weeks. Not sure what I am going to do because I wear body sharpers everyday under my clothes. LOL. Good luck with you surgery!

Also if you do a search for Aetna myself and a few others have recently posted quite a few post regarding Aetna and our experiences so far. If you have any specific questions myself and many others will be glad to answer. Best of luck tomorrow.
