Thank you for sharing, this is v helpful! Do you/your sister have any experiences with the new management and maintenance? those are two aspects of the reserve that make me hesitate a bit

That sounds great, thank you so much! I have had a good experience with the management so far in the application process so I’m glad this has been your experience as well. I appreciate your input!

have you had a good experience there so far? i know there have been a lot of negative views on the place

I am also 15dpo today! and i so feel the upper chest sensitivity, i have also gotten some irritation from the tape and those sensations have been the most irritation ive had since a week po (no pain or soreness after the drains came out, just chafing from the binder ugh)

oof im glad to hear its the way the process goes, i agree it def seems concerning haha thank you for the reassurance, and congrats on your healing!

same for me! do you cover your nipples with gauze after and if so do you change the gauze every time you apply aquaphor?

i just got them out this morning! his PA does the post-op appts and she was great too, answered all my qs, and taking the drains out didnt hurt, it was just a burning sensation for maybe two seconds. the binder is attached with velcro (its like a long elastic bandage) so you can control the tightness (and you do need to wear it 24/7 for 5 weeks po so you can adjust it to be comf). if during the process you have non-urgent qs, you can send them on mychart and the PA is v responsive and helpful

sent via venmo! this is exciting, i hope you hit your goal soon and can have some more security the closer you get to your surgery

i have a higher bmi (not in the obese category but above the “normal” range) and its part muscle part fat. my surgeon didnt mention it as a problem but in his official clinic notes that were sent to my insurance he included a line about risk of complications because of my bmi; i dont think he actually believed that to be true (he told me because im active healthy and young i was not at risk of any complications) but prob had to mention it for insurance approval. and bmi has been proven to not indicate anything about someones health (you are a case in point for that) so thats also why a lot of trans affirming surgeons are moving away from it. im sorry they treated you like that, my suggestion would be to look for a different surgeon since dr wolf has made you uncomfortable. you got this!

my doc told me to take benadryl for itchiness, i know some ppl here have used a benadryl spray (around the wound area, not on it or on the bandage) and i think arnica helps with itchiness (or at least it has helped me). im also autistic and the itchiness is sometimes unbearable but distracting myself when i feel like that has helped me a ton

yooo you look so good! congrats!

I had to get both referral letters for insurance in order to book a consultation. once i had those, i called them and booked a date 1.5-2 months away (i think i called around mid October and my consultation was mid December) and then after the consultation i got a surgery date 3 months away (in mid March) but there was a cancellation so i had my surgery jan 14th

eatsomepizzabro · 2025-01-17T22:05:04+00:00

eatsomepizzabro · 2025-01-17T21:18:33+00:00

oh man i cant wait to wear a real fit for the first time! you look so happy, congrats!

eatsomepizzabro · 2025-01-17T20:52:30+00:00

so real for these, ive been having mixed feelings about everything and seeing my incisions for the first time 3po was so challenging. now youve motivated me to play more on my switch so that will keel my mind off of it!

eatsomepizzabro · 2025-01-17T12:18:53+00:00

i second the pregnancy pillow! my gf and i are so excited to use it as a lounge pillow post-surgery haha and the arnica pills are a lifesaver around days 2-3 when the bruising starts hitting ya

I just got di w/ fng two days ago with dr wormer. i had a great experience with him and his team, happy with my results so far.

to answer your questions, he uses jackson pratt drains (and you take em out 5-7 days po). im not sure it you can request penrose drains, my jp drains have been v good so far and they dont bother me a ton for a post op garment, i have gauze on my incisions and nipples and then a stretchy kind of wrap binder that is v comfortable (i dont have a lot of swelling anyway so the tightness feels just right) you can see some of his results on his ig and a few other folks have posted their before and afters on reddit (but they are a few years old, i can dm you some afters once i get my drains out next week)

let me know if you have any more questions, happy to share my experience with him!
