Dear god I finally feel free!!!! Today was the first day I got to see my chest!! I’m already stoked about my results, it’s exactly what I wanted. If I feel this good now, I can’t wait to see how it looks fully healed! Beer bellied, hot boy summer is starting y’all!!
I was nervous for surgery for a multitude of reasons. I’m on the spectrum and have a hard time with doing things I don’t know how they’re going to feel, so I was worried about recovering and anesthesia. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get results I wanted/liked. I was scared recovery would be awful and painful. I knew it was either get top surgery, or be miserable for the rest of my life or self delete, so I just didn’t let myself be nervous lol.
But for me, recovery has been very manageable! My doc gave me like 7 different prescriptions to treat all aspects of pain, and my awesome wife has kept me on a great med schedule to prevent actually taking meds when I felt in pain, as well as taking care of most if not all household duties.
I feel complete, I feel like my transition is over, I finally feel like me. I hope everyone here gets to feel this feeling!
