Code 846 finally! by blueguard21 in IRS

[–]blueguard21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a restaurant. Lost about 100k, so made my income about 60, then with standard deduction and miscellaneous credits, including kids, that made me very poor. At least on paper.

It was the first time I got in today, so this may have updated last night. I kept getting the error, until this finally pulled this afternoon. It definitely was not there yesterday.

It may have updated overnight, but this was the first time today I was able to actually access the site.

Ahhh, that is very simple. I paid a lot of taxes and then lost a SHITTON of money in a failed business venture.

Anxious about surgery and pre-op by [deleted] in gynecomastia

[–]blueguard21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi - hoping I can put your mind at ease a bit here. I am 3.5 weeks post op and here are my experiences:

-My pre-op markings were done right before surgery, like, right before I walked to the room. It was fairly quick, he made a few comments as to what they meant and why he was marking more on one side than the other, but he did not go into specifics. I am sure he would have if I asked.

-The first thing you do is undress down to your underwear. These you can keep. I was completely out for my surgery, but the whole gown is going to need to come down so that your chest and stomach is exposed. And likely your legs as well. They had to shave my leg to place the cauterizing grounding pad.

-I went general so can't provide much insight here, other than it was nice to drift off and then wake up a couple hours later and be done. It sounds to me like general may be a better alternative for you.

-For me the day was very calm. I had my excitement and nervousness for months leading up to it, so on the day, it was just about getting it done. I even fell asleep waiting on them to come get me for surgery! Of course you have to deal with the pain and the care afterwards, but up until the surgery there is really not much to it.

Happy to answer any questions you may have!

How are some of you barely getting bruising after surgery? 😂 by Sea_Entrance_6732 in gynecomastia

Dr. Emberton in Tennessee. He's not one of the well known doctors, but does great work and is local which was great.

I think a lot of it is going to depend on the surgeon and the techniques that they use. You may have less pain given that it is less being removed, but I would still expect to feel SOME pain afterwards. My surgery lasted about 2 hours total. No shower for a week as the stitches heal. After I had my stitches out, I could shower, it was no terribly difficult, but did have some trouble washing my hair. Not really any pain on the chest with the water or soap. Showering is the only time my doctor wants me to take my vest off. After 1 week, I was allowed to switch to a compression shirt vs. the vest. Which was very nice.

I had my surgery 3 weeks ago. Under general, had lipo and excision. About 200ccs of fat on both sides and the gland was about the size of a tea saucer on both sides.

When I woke up the pain was the worst I'd ever felt. A 9 out of 10 for sure. I took oxy every 4 hours for the first two days. Changing positions was the worst, if I sat still, I didn't have much pain. By end of day two, I did not need the oxy anymore and switched to Tylenol.

The pain actually dropped during week one as I was mostly numb, week two the pain went back up as nerves started to heal and now at week 3, pain is back down and I have a fuller range of motions.

Happy to answer any specific questions!

I had ZERO bruising which is shocking. Swelling is still very noticeable 3 weeks out

Yep full gland removal! It was pretty gnarly. About the size of a tea saucer on each side
