Hi guys,
Been reading a lot of your posts over the last year or so and thought it was time I started my own. First, a little bit about me... So I started to notice my gynecomastia about 2/3 years ago when I was 20. At first I thought it was fat (although I'm not overweight) so decided to hit the gym pretty hard. Lost almost a stone and a half and as you've probably guessed, still had these horrific blobs on my chest.
This is where I started surfing the web and search for answers. Started reading your guys forums and realised my thoughts and feelings and even appearance matched some of you guys. Although I was pretty sure I had gynecomastia, I bottled it up for a long time. Feared what my family or friends would say. But Tuesday I finally decided enough was enough, and booked to see Dr Levick to get a real diagnosis.
After 2/3 years of this weighing me down, this last week has been a whirlwind the say the least. I had my consultation with Levick on Tuesday, told my family on the night and booked my surgery for April 2nd on the Thursday.
I can't describe how excited I am to finally get rid of this horrible condition that's held me back in so many ways. It doesn't come cheap, but I really couldn't care less about the cost now. I think it's time to start living my life and enjoying the summer!!
