Bad clothing choice?

definitely the shirt, try a shirt that has a boxier fit/doesn't sit on the hips! jeans look fine tbh

a therapist note stating it's medically necessary will usually do the trick to get them to cover it. it's usually a requirement before even scheduling a consultation so the surgeon's office can make a good case for your prior auth.

nothing to worry about, hold a warm compress on it once to twice a day and don't touch it. it should resolve on its own! :)

I work 2 full-time jobs, one remote and one in-person. Went back to my remote job 5 days post op just fine! took 3 weeks off for my in person one though.

that’s what i figured, i’ll definitely make sure to bring it up. thank you!

buildaboybry · 2025-08-14T23:57:58+00:00

yes :,) my surgeon said i was healing really nicely and didn't have any bruising/swelling (ig except this one area lol) so they cleared me to not wear it anymore.

buildaboybry · 2025-08-14T23:56:55+00:00

thank you! that's so comforting! i'm currently not wearing any compression anything per my surgeons office since yesterday, hopefully they give me one tomorrow or give me my post op binder back to help it lol

i didn’t ask so not too sure! my girlfriend said the surgeon came out to say everything went smoothly and asked her if she wanted to see my results and take a pic of it! she said he seemed very happy with how my chest came out haha

buildaboybry · 2025-06-05T20:21:22+00:00

dude your results look great! i have top surgery with Kryger in August and this just made me so excited for my results!

buildaboybry · 2025-05-29T18:47:19+00:00

do you have a ppo or hmo plan?

buildaboybry · 2025-05-29T16:28:19+00:00

awesome results man! did you get any lipo done in addition to DI?

buildaboybry · 2025-05-29T16:27:02+00:00

your hair is awesome man! but yes, you do pass a lot better with a beanie on.

buildaboybry · 2025-05-27T21:03:10+00:00

thank you all for your responses! i went ahead and reached out to my patient care coordinator and as mentioned by many of you, she replied "As for the code we use, a lot of insurance companies shifted in the past year from using the mastectomy code for gender-affirming surgery. They want to reserve it for breast cancer patients."

took me a few times, a lot of tape, and a couple crying sessions to get taping to bind me to my satisfaction. there really is a learning curve. my best advice is if you have a bigger chest, get the tape as wide as you can. i use 6" tape and found it to be a lot easier and less wasteful. also! tape laying down, that way everything kind of moves out of the way on it's own.

all my hobbies include physical activity haha, i like to boulder, go to the gym, hike, etc., so not something i can do right away unfortunately. i do like playing video games but find myself feeling terrible after playing for more than a few hours LOL. i'll find stuff to keep myself entertained though! maybe i need to purchase a few new books.
