I'm gonna share pics now that I've had my 1week followup and gotten my drains out and everything!!! utc for fresh scars and grafts. my surgeon did an incredible job!!
in case any one local (BC) is wondering my surgeon was dr Rebecca Nelson!
everything's still really fresh, swollen, etc. but it's already looking so good!! I asked her for a lot of specifics:
-to leave in some fat so I don't look concave
- if she was able to curl the scars upwards in the underarm area (it helps prevent dogearing and I also I didn't want Lipo so it would help get rid of excess material there)
- i wanted to be sure the nipples didn't get placed too high or too close together cus a lot of top surgery results tend to do that
- I wanted the scar line to be a bit higher than the 'root' of my previous breasts cus they would look weirdly low and curved otherwise
she was very confident and experienced with all of my requests and I'm absolutely ecstatic. I think she knocked it outta the park, I look so cute. I'm especially blown away at how nice the sides/underarms look- there's this cute amount of bulk that feels very fitting to my proportions 🥺 and there's no shelf or dogears or anything! a lot of fat guys end up with extra tissue on the sides and it's fine (even fat cis guys have a shelf sometimes) so I'm really surprised and pleased that I came out smooth!

everytime I'm in a waiting room I worry that I'll somehow completely forget how my name sounds aloud and miss when they call for me

top surgery question bc i havent gotten it yet and im nervous: you mentioned nausea, is that a symptom of the surgery itself or is it due to the drains or smthn? :0
good question!! it is both, i think!
they give you a bunch of anti nausea drugs before surgery to help, but as i've come out of it ive noticed a distinct queasiness come thru - its not the worst thing ever but it does suck. i think mostly im mistaking chest pain for nausea since it's sort of in the front center of my chest and has a vague tight/rising feeling (plus autism makes it easy for one sensory experience to be mistaken for another, like hunger and thirst and needing to bathroom etc etc). the drains just make me more nauseous because they are unpleasant to look at and clean out. since im not allowed to take off the bandages for a week and im also not allowed to shower (i can spot clean) my overall smell situation is pretty icky too. get bath wipes/a helper if you can!
i also highly recommend trying your best to take any pain meds with food cus taking pills without food can also make nausea worse - i have a hard time eating in the mornings normally so its extra difficult for me to get through it. this morning after i took my meds i stood in the kitchen and ate 1 piece of cereal at a time until i stopped salivating like a sick dog and felt well enough to get myself a whole bowl. i think if i had tried to eat it outright i woulda frew up right there.
