I got another two ounce fill up and it's starting to look better. The plastic surgeon said I'll need two or three more fill ups and then I'll be on to the next phase of my reconstruction. It's interesting to see the progress and it's kind of amazing that they can actually make me a new body part. I'm sending good thoughts to all of you and hope you are doing well.

Sounds great! My girlfriend was not quite so pleased as she feels like one is slightly larger than the other - she makes it sound like this huge diff, but you can't see it just by looking at her, and even looking intently you can barely notice. Of course the person it's being done to is naturally going to be a lot more sensitive about that, I don't blame her, but it's really not as bad as she makes it out to be....

Besides, both are bigger now, I aint complainin

I had another two ounce fill up this week and am very sore. The plastic surgeon warned me that it would be more painful as it got larger. He says I only have one more fill up and then he'll schedule my exchange surgery for June. I hope all of you are doing well and will continue to pray for you.

Still going through the reconstruction phase. My exchange surgery is scheduled for June 8th. I'm hoping all goes well and the implant is a lot more comfortable than this expander. Sending good thoughts to all of you.

Oh it is, I assure you. I still feel a little odd though because of the lack of feeling under my arm. That bugs me but I'm getting used to it.

I don't have expanders or anything but I still have numbness under the arm. I was just wondering this morning if I'll ever feel there again. It feels weird shaving and putting deoderant under my right arm.
