Be honest with yourself and record how much you've drank each and every day. After three to four weeks, see how much you've consumed. And, if you feel able, share this information with your doctor, then s/he will help you assess if your drinking is should be considered problematic (which is usually a male who drinks more than two drinks per day, and a female who drinks more than one).

So, instead of allowing yourself to be victimized by your own emotions or self-control issues, start taking control with this simple step. If you're not sure that you have a problem, but you feel like you might, then chances are you do.

So, don't make excuses, monitor yourself daily. Once you're ready, perhaps you can share your material with your doctor or other professionals (or a therapy group) who understand what you're going through. =========================================================== Discover valuable advice and information about alcohol abuse - its causes and its treatment.

You might also want to consider that breast sensation can be affected after surgery and they may feel hard, unfamiliar and artificial. Prepare yourself psychologically for lack of sensation in nipple that often occurs for weeks after you have operation. This is a normal reaction and usually nipple sensation returns after a few months. However a small number of women may experience permanent numbness in their breasts or nipple.

You should also be aware that it is dangerous to your health to get pregnant within six months after a breast augmentation. Hormonal changes can cause fluids to collect around nipple causing infections and pressure that may result in breast and also nipple being removed!

One more thing that you need to be aware of is that your new breasts may not look exactly like you want until six months after operation. It takes that long for implants to harmonize with your body and settle in to their desired shape. Fortunately, breast implants can always be removed if you decide you don't like final effect.
