I finally had my first surgery, and the next one is probably before the end of the year! I am getting close to full recovery, and have been healing really well. Having less deformity on my body is a massive relief, and being a little closer to feeling like I can get over this hump of much needed change into the rest of my life is good. It is just top surgery for now, but when they tested my chest, it was even more deformed than they had thought, so it was kinda amazing just how deformed a person can be, and I had no idea. I had a chest fused to a chest underneath in strips of lesion like skin, that had skin tags and cysts in the long lesion looking parts. The nerves were all buried under the bottom chest, and the top chest had the fat in it. Also hence why I had no milk ducts, nor sensation in my chest my whole life.
After surgery, I have so much sensation and feeling in my chest, it is crazy. The stimulation has taken some getting used to, of even doing something simple, like wearing a T- Shirt. haha. But it is always super rewarding and I am thrilled I did it :)
