Update on Boob Meltdown!

So as many of you saw this week I had a complete boob melt down!!
Finally saw Dr Fiumara today who was very kind and understand and reassuring despite my non stop crying and nerves and upset and even my mother chipping in trying to explain my upset.
I’m so concerned that I have double bubble and she said it’s something that will correct in time. She said she can see what I’m concerned about but assured me the skin and muscle and scar tissue will settle and cover the implant. The right side hasn’t dropped and she said she could see that the muscle is still tight and showed me ways to massage it to help. She was very gentle and kind.
She advised that I now wear an underwire bra the help support the left Side where he implant has dropped more and keep the right side strap loose. She said to ‘give it time’. I have never been patient so I’m a bit stressed.
I want to m&s and saw a lovely woman who really measured me properly – and I mean properly – and went through bra after bra with me and measured me a 30DD – shocking when one marks measured me a 34C !!!!
Iv come away with some supportive bras now – although wearing a real supportive bra for the first time in my life is taking some adjusting to!
My mum has been with me and been very supportive and I’m so glad I took her with me.
I will ask say Dr Fiumara is very very kind, understanding and takes her time to explain and answer things in detail, she even showed me pictures of my befores and the old inframatory crease than I am seeing now and explained that this goes away but it needs time.
She also said it can take a full 18 months from op date to when they finally settle. I was shocked.
I went in there determined to have them out – just totally take them out. I have had to accept I need to be calm and just wait and wait and wait. I can’t do any more – I would have to wait to have them removed anyway.
All fingers and toes crossed and really hope that my anxiety goes away. I’m going to stop looking and obsessing over them and taking pictures everyday.
I will be seeing Dr Fiumara once a month on her suggestion which also puts my mind at ease.
I really recommend Dr Fiumara to anyone, she is like I said very kind and l am glad I picked her.

Awww i’m so happy to read this! I was worrying for you! I’m seeing dr fiumara next month so i can’t wait now 🙂

Yay, I’m so glad she put your mind at ease! I hope you can remain positive and that you love your boobs in the end. X

I wouldn’t say it was at easy but at least she was confident. I just really really hope that things go the way she said! Fingers crossed xxx

So happy to see this!! Hope your feeling much better certainly sounds like it xxxxx

I’m still very anxious and really hope the double bubble thing corrects its self as she says. I’ll see her again I need around 6 weeks.
I hope there is some progress 🙁 xxx

That is so reassuring to hear. Dr Fiumara seemed very caring when I met her and seemed like she knew her stuff which is why I booked with for June.

I hope it all works out for you xxx

Glad to hear she reassured you and was really caring. Just play it by ear and see how things play out. Don’t be afraid to go back though if in a few months or so you are still not happy xx
