Compression wraps

I got up in the middle of the night last night, because the tight bandages were causing a back ache and I couldn't sleep.  I figured I'd take a photo to show y'all what it's like to have a boa constrictor wrapped around your chest.

Disappointingly, it doesn't look anywhere near as uncomfortable as it feels.

I figured I'd at least turn the photo to black and white to show my angst.


  1. Hey - thinking of you.

    Take care - P xox

  2. Your face tells us more than your wrappings do! Of course if I got up in the middle of the night and took a photo of me, I'd probably look pretty much the same way - cranky at being awake! :) You hang in there - we're all checking on you, worried and praying!

  3. Where's the visitor messages on your bandage? Or at least the KCA emblem.

  4. Mine was just like that but with the addition of an uncomfortable twisted piece that attached the boddice to my neck - like some perverted non-fashion statement LOL - to prevent the boddice part from slipping down since I had both boobs removed/replaced. Between the actual incision pain and the discomfort of the bandages and drains, night time was brutal. I know what you're feeling and I'm sorry :(...it does get better though.
