no equilibrium, no control

The abscess has ... basically returned.

It's ... not really a long story, but it's one I don't really want to tell. Truth is, there's nothing really to tell; I had two surgeries to remove the recurrent abscesses and now either I keep having surgeries or ...

End result is, I'm probably going to have surgery to remove all the ducts in my breast, soon after the New Year.

Oh shit! That's terribly bad luck. *great big hugs*

[erika]

I just ... don't want this to be happening to me. Or if it had to happen to me, why couldn't it have happened like, 60 years in the future, when my tits would probably have looked like crap anyway?

Awww, fuck. I'm so sorry.

[erika]

yeah... they're like "loss of volume, permanent disfigurement..."

On the plus side if they do corrective surgery I'll have like, the smallest breast implant ever.

[rhivolution]

Oh no. My best wishes for things to get better, that's just...not...yeah. Words.

[erika]

thank you <3

I'm so sorry. It is entirely unfair when bodies go astray like that. I wish you a quick recovery after the surgery.

[erika]

Thank you, sweetheart. <3

Awe. :( I'm sorry to read that the previous surgeries haven't corrected the problem. What a mess. That's what I hate about surgery. Most of them are not guaranteed. If this next surgery is the ONLY thing that will get rid of the abscess, then I guess it's a good thing, but I can definitely see why you wouldn't want to go undergo it. I hope everything goes smoothly for you with it though.

[erika]

Thanks. It's ... rough. I just wish this wasn't happening to me.
