Are you as amazed and excited as I am (trans question)?
Guess what? Guess what?? I had a surgical consult yesterday and it's 18 days until I get my chest reconstruction!
Does that short time shock anyone else? My little sister was amazed and said "How the heck do they find a room that fast? And do you want whatever they can find that quick??"... then she hugged me and was happy for me.
I've never heard of anyone else getting a spot so quick. Has anyone else gotten from the consult to the OR that fast?
I'm excited, and the procedure I'm getting is going to leave pretty much no scarring. I cannot believe it. It's like Christmas or something.
A million thanks for thoughtful and positive answers... and laughs at the negative ones who are jealous because I am made of awesome and they are not.
Hey... I think you're missing the point. This isn't something I'm doing because I feel like it... it's to correct a malformation of my body due to a birth defect. While it isn't going to kill me outright, it does cause me pain.
I do need this, otherwise I'm hindered in my day to day living. That's the point of a reconstruction, to enable me to live without barriers in my life.

Goodness! I'm sorry I havent been keeping up with you, I remember when you answered some of my questions and I was like ...why dont I have someone like you in my life real time...LOL!
Glad to hear this!
I dont know who would believe your doing this because you just "feel like it". Breast enhancement seems to be something ppl do in a hurry but Chest reduction based on gender identity is quite different.
Oh well, life.

That sounds awesome... however I can't help but think it also sounds sketchy. I don't know much about surgery and all but I've always heard stuff about how if you get in quick chances are you don't have a very good doctor. Well regardless, best of luck and congratulations.

Wonderful News! I am truly happy for you. My surgery wasn't that fast but it wasn't months either. It all depends on your locale, the hospital bookings, and sometimes sheer dumb luck. You beat the systems a little so extra congrats are in order.

I'm cisgendered myself, so I can't answer your question properly, but anyway, I just wanted to say:
CONGRATULATIONS!! =D
That's awesome! Good luck with your surgery, and hopefully you'll be content with the results! I'm very happy for you..
EDIT: @ Hey: I think one could easily argue that he too NEEDS surgery. It might be completely essential to his psychological well-being and acceptance of himself as a person, hence important.

Excellent news, Jay; congratulations!
That's even quicker than the time between my consultation and the date for my genital surgery; 23 days....I was shocked and amazed, and as excited as you are.

Congrats Jay! That is fast for the Canadian medical system. I like the sounds of that minimal scarring.
