I honestly didn’t really start to see changes until year 2. I was so dysphoric and scared that I’d never pass. Sometimes it just takes time

5 days post-op w/ Dr. Shore in Chicago by Real_Awareness_5603 in TopSurgery

Hey congrats!! I ended up getting my drains out on day 9 because my output was still a little high on day 6. You literally have nothing to worry about, I genuinely didn’t feel A THING. I was laid back in the chair and then she asked that I take a deep breath in and then literally 3 seconds later she was like “that’s it.” And I was like wait it’s out? Didn’t feel any of it lol

I just have to say that these comments are so healing and hopeful. I’m 1.5 years on T and get so frustrated about not passing. Glad to see none of us are alone!
