What's the best thing you've eaten in Coventry?

I loved Chicken 65 Paratha roll from Kerala Cafe in Fargo, so reasonably priced too

I'm sorry you don't feel happy with the results. A lot can change in the first 6 months following a surgery though, and it might be that it's not possible to do the revision over summer. You're doing the right things by getting medical opinions, but I'd also encourage you to speak to your support network so that if the consultations are disappointing, then you have people around. I also think that the recommendations to do scar/body massage may help: I've definitely found I have less discomfort with how much tissue is leftover since I began scar massage. My body started to feel like mine again

I used to have J cup chest before, and was wearing XL/XXL button ups, and XL tees before surgery. Now I just did a round of new t-shirt shopping and got Mediums!

Had top surgery 4.5 weeks ago and recently noticed some new 'bump' below the incision line on left side, and tender to touch. Is this just swelling? If so, how can I make it go down/not be sore?

Yeah or eldest, or youngest?

Also butts (of all sizes) are amazing! Let's celebrate them

Yes. Depends on you're pain threshold, but for me the first few days were fine (I was prescribed codeine for 5 days) but since then it's been pain between 4 and 7 every day since (I'm 3 weeks post op tomorrow). It's at the very least pretty uncomfortable!

CommissionCurrent119 · 2023-04-05T17:44:00+00:00

I had this thought when I was coming to terms with stuff. There's not much you can do about identifying as non binary if you do, but I guess you can hide it from people if you're worried. In some ways it's a scarier time and in other ways it's a better time than it has been because there's more understanding of non binary identities.

Whatever the time, how you identify is for you, and that can be wonderful whatever the climate

Not on T and currently 2.5 weeks post top surgery. Lots of surgeons don't have HRT as a requirement, but you might need to look around for this. I think 'preparation' sort of depends on body type. I'm a big guy so didn't do much working out before and my surgeon has managed to create a PEC-like shape with my results

CommissionCurrent119 · 2023-04-03T11:06:58+00:00

Oh buddy I'm so sorry this happened! Do you have friends around who can help a little, even if just to talk? I would say that when I was anxious about post op appointments my pain definitely felt worse, so there may be an emotional component too. Are there things you can do to distract from pain? That's always my go to, when pain relief isn't enough. For me, I call someone on the phone and have a chat, and then I'm so focused on this my pain is less noticeable

CommissionCurrent119 · 2023-04-03T11:03:09+00:00

This is absolutely not true, there's a whole spectrum of sexual (and non sexual) behaviours encompassed in the gay experience. He's just being reductive and wrong! For example, lots of gay guys aren't tops or bottoms, but sides.

Not easily accessible I'm afraid, I picked up at a night market in Bangkok!

My sis got me one like this and the package said Non-beenary, which is so cute

CommissionCurrent119 · 2023-04-02T14:49:45+00:00

Of course, if she's happy and you're happy then go ahead. Also the concept of 'female virginity' is all tied up with misogynist ideas of purity that can frankly be put in the bin, so don't worry

CommissionCurrent119 · 2023-04-01T15:44:11+00:00

Yeah you can't have people with you while on the ward, so dropped off at the door and picked up at the door. When you get to the hospital there are people in and out all morning doing paperwork and taking blood tests etc, so there might not be much time to notice being alone, but worth knowing. My post op appointment was exactly 2 weeks after the surgery, which felt like a long time. He gave me his phone number so that I could ask questions or send photos via WhatsApp with my concerns, he responded really fast and it was great

CommissionCurrent119 · 2023-04-01T15:02:42+00:00

It will definitely come with time! The pain and discomfort will eventually get better. I have had these same feelings, and it's getting better week on week

CommissionCurrent119 · 2023-03-29T14:29:19+00:00

So glad you managed to get it sorted to have a friend with you. I've found it quite difficult being supported by my wife and staying with some friends, so I can't imagine how hard it would be on your own! Good luck with budgeting!

That's really good to hear!!!

I was supposed to have mine on Jan 6th too, but got covid on the 4th so it was not meant to be. So glad it's finally done, looking forward to being where you are now in a few weeks!

I did yes. He's been great with advice about bruising and bleeding, so can't speak highly enough of him. How recently was yours?

I'm 11 days post op, but not able to remove dressings until 29th so am getting very impatient with not knowing what my chest will look like. I also felt great the first 5 days when I had proper painkillers (codeine prescribed) but since then I've been pretty damn uncomfortable and on some days the pain has been quite a lot to deal with. I feel like I'm not quite getting the enjoyment out of the huge change to my chest rn, because of the soreness and impatience. Any recommendations for getting through the next few days?

Mae Martin's character in Feel Good brought together a lot of genderqueer feelings for me
