So let’s talk about top surgery

I have done my surgery in 2 of June. In general I did not hurt at all when I went off from anesthesia. When I woke up I was in a very cold room and then I was rolled back in my room. I am living in Greece so I was in a public hospital but hear this, public hospital with 3 bedrooms on it by itself and no one went to sleep there WHAAAT

Anyways now to to the medical talk:

As I said personally I did not hurt BUT, sleeping upright was the WORST thing for me, I could not get good sleep for days(I am a side sleeper) and I was miserable. I was supposed to get out after 2 days but I left after 8. Why you may ask.

I started having a lot of blood pressure and the doctors were worried, I told them I have a mental disorder and hospitals make me very anxious and I want to go home and that’s why the high blood pressure. OBV they did not believe me and gave me pills. So they kept me there BUT also because they wanted my tubes to clear out so I am 100% okay

Did you know that your tubes can loose air and make a pop sound? Well thank god I was in the hospital and they changed my bottles in time because WHEN i tell you I freaked out. I did.

Now regarding care: I cleaned them first every 2 days with a spray they gave me and cover them plus a binder

Care I do now:
Bepanthol (it’s a cream that’s very safe and good for the skin)
And I clean it every morning, the cream I put it morning and night.

For the bloating: still kinda but it gets down but I don’t mind either way.

Aftereffects: I still have not realized what has happened and sometimes I still feel like I have boobs going up and down and other stuff.
I feel some zaps on my chest sometimes and at first I was like “damn heart attack ok the monsters get to me” but it wasnttt so yayyyy

Anesthesia is nothing so pls don’t worry. You can do it ❤️

For any questions my DMs are open.

Just had top surgery

Hello everyone I just had my top surgery and I am currently still in the hospital it’s the first night I am staying here!

I am here to say how it was my experience:
In general I get stressed very quickly so before my surgery I was shaking like crazy and even shaking when they were “drawing” on me to see where they will cut. Anesthesia was nothing even if I was scared shitless, you close your eyes, you open them and you are done. There is nothing to be afraid of. I could eat after a while so that’s good, when I could eat I have one cookie and my body realized I have not eaten for hours so my sugar dropped but I was okay after a while!

Have been sleeping on and off not because I can’t but because i am stressed, my doctor told me to walk around so this is what I have been doing!

Also to say because I was scared and shaking my anesthesia was not getting me so they needed to get me
To stop shaking so the surgery was even longer. I am here to share my experience and if anyone wants helps or have any questions I would be more than happy to help!

Happy pride month babies ❤️
