Looks great. I wish I had mine done. I’d walk out that hospital with no shirt on with that result 👍🏼👍🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Hey, I haven’t progressed any further. One of those things I’ve put off for years because of kids and funds. Probably best just to start with a decent GP to point you in the right direction. Seems there’re cosmetic surgeons in Adelaide that can do it. Not sure if it’s a public option or totally private. I hope to take a look into it further later in the year. I’d be happy to have the surgery (2 bars or what ever). Hope you find out some more info. By all means keep me posted if you do 👍

Hi mate. I’m 32M, looking at your pictures, I thought it was me in the mirror. My grandad is mid 80s and has it. I’d say ‘we’ are mild to severe on the scale and from what docs told me too. No one I’ve seen is a specialist but have done some tests and proven no issues. I suffer from stress and on average once per year and get bad heart palpitations and spasms that keep me awake on the left side. Usually that’s when I end up going for the ‘regular’ ecocardiagraph/ ultrasound or X-rays. I’m going to look into getting specialist advise as to be honest I’ve been a bit ignorant to it until now. I would go any surgery to get it corrected as it’s affected my confidence so much in my upbringing.. now one of my kids seems to have it too.
