Hello,
First of all I would like to give thanks to everyone new and old to this message board. Although I haven't responded or posted that much at all I have lurked on this site and on the message boards for years. And by years I am talking about 3 or more years.
It all started back when I was around 14-15 and I was trying to find out what was wrong and I didn't realize it was gynecomastia at first but I was wrong and several years later I found myself back on this site trying to find as much info as I could. With the support and info I got off of this board I had the courage to confront my parents several times, and finally 4 days ago I was granted my wish and got surgery.
Without the things I learned on this board I would still be where I was 4 years ago... depressed, sad, thinking why am I different, self-consisous... I bet you know all about it. Since I still have my bandages on I haven't been able to see my nipples, but my plastic surgeon said he was very impressed with the turnout and everything went really well according to him. I did tonight pulled down the bandage so I could at least SEE what they had become... and.... they are flat and exatcly how i pictured them to be!
I can't even explain the feeling I had looking in the mirror and I wish all you gyne sufferers could have experienced the exact feeling I had. I hope new users will use this site and message board to its fullest potential, and older users keep informing and support everyone as a great caring community you already are!
Thanks again to everyone here and I hope this support continues with every other gyne sufferer!
