Physical therapy and pain

I had my physical therapy appointment earlier and I was sure sore and tired! With the inflation's stretching my muscles and skin and PT working out and stretching my muscles, I am sore!  It does feel as if I am digressing a little.  I have little resistance during my exercises but I am still struggling.  I wouldn't say I'm uncomfortable but having a sports bra on seems tight but not having anything on feels different too.  I'm not more comfortable in one over the other.  I take my bra off if I am feeling some pain , then later if I am feeling pain or weight I put it back on. 

I am enjoying how my clothes look with the size my 'breasts' are.  I'm always wanting to share with people my progress. lol Even though inflations come with some pain and discomfort, I am still excited for more (not too much, though). 

After talking with my sister this morning, the one that is a survivor, she was explaining to me that her implants don't feel much different than the expanders in.  I hope that isn't the case.  She had her surgery about 10 years ago so maybe its different.  I'm going to see if I can ask someone that has had this done recently, a previvor.

  1. The implants now feel 1000 times better than the expanders. I have not had 1 single pain or issue of discomfort since I had them. I had a hard time with the expanders (even though I required no fills as I was filled at the time of surgery to 350 ccs) and I have been so much happier since the exchange!
