Is it really best thing you've ever done (for yourself? )…

Hi girlies I need help! :(……. I’ve just had my 1st consultation at manchester… got to be honest I left feeling pretty deflated… not slagging the lady off at all she was nice and it was a late appointment so she’d probably had a long day, plus she’s maybe used to people having free consultations & then wasting her time etc… anyway i dont know what i was expecting but the appt lasted all of 10 minutes.. just felt it was very rushed, I held an implant, told her which hosp i’d prefer (preston) & when i’d like it done preferably, she told me they’d make a 4cm incision under each breast under general aneasthetic, and when I told her I had half the money & was applying for finance for the rest she basically told me to go home do the finance application etc and that was pretty much it…. but in the pack she gave me it said my pc would go through the op, pre & post-op care, surgeons etc etc…. anyway I was a bit disappointed and on way home applied for finance & been accepted! Yayyy 🙂 all good!. Except one big problem. I am absolutely the biggest wuss ever, i’m already panicking about the op, being put to sleep etc the whole thought terrifies me I feel hot dizzy sick & mega emosh just thinking about it & I ddon’t know if i’m strong enough to go through with it on the day….. but it’s something I really want and know would make me so much happier/confident! I just wish I was a stronger person honestly can’t even go to the dentist I just suffer instead! :/… anyway sorry for the rant, & I know only I can make this decision for me etc… i’m just wondering if any of you ladies have felt as scared as this and done it? is it really the best thing you’ve done? And is it really that bad and am I worrying over nothing or over thinking it like I do with everything!? …. hahaha please help me! xxx

Awww hun sorry you’re feeling like this. If it’s something you really want just go for it! You will probably feel like what was all the fuss for once you’ve got it done. Who is your PC? X

Hi hun…..i get my op on the 9th march and I am terrified…..cant even hav a needle without having a panic attack so god knows wat am gonna be like on the day lol x

Thanks for replying hun….. I know! it’s like I’ve got two voices & the first ones going do it! They do this sort of thing every single day, it’s safe they’ll look after you etc etc & how proud & happy i’ll feel after (coz I know I will!) And then the other voice goes omg you can’t get a bobo job you can’t even have a needle there’s no way you won’t run screaming down the ward on the day of the op! Haha 🙁 …… my pc is hollie at the Manchester clinic hun xxx

Omg carla I feel your pain i’m gonna be an absolute wreck! But I know it’ll be worth it! I look in the mirror & absolutely hate my boobs! And I’ve got the chance to get them done which is what I want and I am chickening out it’s so upsetting 🙁 xx

Am sure well be fine but omg everytime I think of it my stomachs in knots lol but thas no going back now its paid and booked for 2 weeks today

Is it ok to add u x

Course hun will accept you now xxx

Girls I assure you it’s absolutely fine. You are in the best hands they to this every day over and over they are professionals and will look after you. Don’t let the fear stop you. I’m 9 days post op and yes, I can honestly say it’s the best thing I’ve ever done and I wish I’d done it sooner. Xx

Thank you for your comment Lucy! :)…. i know how proud & happy i will feel after it i just wish i didnt overthink & worry about everythin!…. anyway i slept on it & I’ve paid the deposit this morning and going to meet the surgeon & hopefully feel reassured etc or less of a wimp after I’ve talked it through with him! Xxx

I’m such a wuss it’s ridiculous, I don’t even have a dentist cause I’m bloody terrified of them (Don’t let my auntie know, she works in a dentist and would kill me!). Everyone thinks I’m good with pain because I have a lot of tattoos but honestly, I’m just good at keeping it to myself. On the day I was in the hospital on my own. shitting myself as I’d never had an op before but honestly, the nurses and everyone else looking after you make you feel so calm about everything and talk you through everything that happens. I made my anesthetist go through how I would be put to sleep and how it works because I was so worried!

Being put under was easy, the anesthetist told me exactly what was going to happen just before it did and exactly how I’d be feeling and the next thing I knew I was waking up in recovery with the loveliest nurse!

I’m now 4days post op and my biggest worry is bloating. It hurts and I look pregnant but my boobs are fine. They’re more tight and uncomfortable than painful.

This is easily the best thing I have ever done and I haven’t even seen my boobs properly yet because they’re still all strapped up 🙂 xx

I’m the same Hun, literally fainted 3 times in 1 blood test before I’m such a baby. Maybe at your pre op ask for something to calm you down before the op. I would also make them aware of how nervous you are. I told my surgeon how nervous I am and he agreed to put me to sleep before doing the cannula etc. don’t let a few minutes of fear ruin it for you xx

Thank you ladies I really appreciate the comments! 🙂 Elizabeth my sisters a dental nurse haha & she’s always telling me off coz I don’t have a dentist! That’s very reassuring thank you! Bless you goin on your own! Did you prefer it that way? …. I’m excited to have new boobies I just need to man up! Xxx
Sophie that’s like me! Had my blood taken about a year ago & the nurse was very concerned coz I went white & slid off the chair haha! So just worrying how i’m gonna cope being put to sleep :(… I will def mention it when I meet the surgeon & ask for gas etc (whatever they can give me) before they put me under….. when’s your op booked for? Xxx

Hate to say it girlies but I was dental nurse before I had my daughter, tut tut hehe! Mines not till April. A friend of my sister had diazepam before her op to calm her down or maybe just buy some calms for the night before as don’t thibk we’ll be getting a lot of sleep with all the nerves lol xx

Im a wuss when it comes to needles and on the day of my op I nearly walked out I was that scared!! while waiting to be put under my whole body was shaking uncontrollably then next minute I was waking up. I slept for most the afternoon and was discharged late evening. BEST THING IVE EVER DONE!! im soooo much more confident and feel like a woman for once. I go up to my other half and go … ‘want to see my boobs’ then just whip them out …. I never ever let him see them before!! I had a great recovery … I wouldn’t say its painful just uncomfortable … and I feel every tiny pain!! You’ll be fine they did 10 surgeries on the same day as my op!! your in safe hands!! 🙂 go for it!! xx

It’s made me a loss less nervous reading all ur comments……am terrible for panicking……forgot all about the bloody cannula lol another thing for me to worry about lol am not really bothered bout the op itself it’s the going to sleep part am such a wimp haha ohh and another thing I don’t like the look of tht tube thing wat goes down ya throat am ill xx

Thank you hun! 🙂 these comments are makin me feel loads better! Well I’ve booked it & paid half so no going back now!! Xxx

Carla what tube down the throat!? Hahaha don’t tell me that! Ignorance is bliss! Lol xxx

Mya have been fantastic 🙂

13 days too go for my op omg a feel sick but am so excited too x

It helps u breathe I watched it on YouTube thts how pathetic I am……av made myself feel worse xx

Hey Jen, I can honestly say you have nothing to worry about, all surgeries come with risks but I chose MYA for their amazing rep and aftercare, you are in good hands. I’m a massive wuss just like you and was getting so anxious on the day, I had canular before with the NHS that left my hand bruised and scarred for a long time but the MYA anaesthetist was so skilled and professional I hardly felt it!! I was not expecting that at all haha.. I wouldn’t mind doing it all again xx

@figureclass i’m so sorry for the late reply hun i never saw this! Bet you thought I was a right ignorant cow! Lol thank you for your msg 🙂 my ops less than 2 weeks away & i’m still terrified but tryin to stay positive & know i’m in safe hands, & will be worth it when I get my new twins! Hope you’re recovering well! 🙂 xx

Definitely the best thing I ever done! The day I had my op my confidence came back and I am no longer insecure about my boobs which had made me miserable for so many years! 🙂

Thank you hun 🙂 I’m all booked in for 1st april so there’s no turning back now! Xx
