Consult on 4/11
My consult was great. I had two other consults with other surgeons in the NOVA area. Dr. Hess didn't overlook my concerns and actually took the time to examine me. He said my gynecomastia was nearly all tissue. This happen to me in adolescence and never resolved. I received an email the follow day describing the whole procedure in detail. The price that I got quoted was the best deal out of all the surgeons. I choose to get gynecomastia surgery and liposuction on my flanks which has always been a problem for me as well.
Preoperative on 5/9
My preoperative appointment was today and it went smooth. We went over the risks and I signed all my forms. Payment for surgeon fees were due. He asked if I had any questions. Which I didn't have any questions but I did let him know that I get extremely high anxiety in hospital settings. I literally tried to leave before an appendectomy once. He addressed that by giving me an anti-anxiety medication to take the day of. My mother who is taking care of me post op will appreciate this. 6 days till the surgery and I am starting to get nervous. I am scared of my chest being uneven or nipples being off at different levels on my chest. I think the benefits will out weigh the risks to me, considering I've spent nearly 20 years trying to conceal my larger chest. I'll upload preoperative pictures soon.

My surgery was yesterday and it seems to have went well. I remember waking up in a good amount of pain. The nurses were all very friendly which made the experience that much better. I am hurting a lot this morning and had trouble sleeping last night. I'm having to take the maximum amount of pain medication. I took my compression off for 5 minutes today just to get a look. There is a huge reduction in my chest size. Oh can't really tell anything from the liposuction because it's very swollen.
