Visitors' Stories -- Claudia's Story (page 2):2 weeks My major concern at this early stage was the return of sensation to my breasts and nipples. At two weeks my left breast was still totally numb. My right breast was spotty above the areola incision, and numb below. Dr. Vogel reassured me that he was confident that feeling would return. I was less so. I am able to sleep on either side, for small amounts of time, and on my back. Some nights I take Advil, to help those moments when I want to sleep on my side. My breasts still look full above the areola - a look I can live with. My left breast was bigger prior to my surgery and looks bigger now. I received 420ccs in each breast. Dr. Vogel said on the table they looked even, so he did them 420 each based on looks. I am hoping the left breast is still slightly swollen. I went to try on stretchy wireless bras, and the cups fit each breast differently. My incisions are still red and raised in some areas and invisible in others. One corner of the outer right breast incision didn't quite meet. For the first nine days, the area was like a sore without a scab, and would ooze liquids. Dr. Vogel said it was healing fine. He was right. It never did get infected. That area is still there, and just looks like a small gouge in the corner. It has been dry and healing. I am still using Bacitracin to help this process along nicely. At two weeks my only regret would be if I don't get my sensations back. It doesn't only effect my breasts but my overall sexual experiences. It affects how I feel during sex since orgasms without total body sensations feel oddly numb.
