Howd it go? Im set for the 31st and im quite nervous.

Hi there! It went just fine , i was pretty nervous before to but for now i feel it was nothing to be nervous about. Everything went very fast , i came to the clinic and meet the surgery he gave me som pills and talk about how its gonna be, next i remember i woke up in a bed , im at the clinic right now, gonna stay for the night because i have diabetes type 1, so just for security reasons. I feel a bit sore in my cheast but not to much pain, on wednesday i can take a shower and look under my compressionvest how it looks. Good luch with your surgery, cheers mate

Congrats on the surgery.....mine is scheduled for the 29th......very nervous, but your comments give me confidence that my surgery will go well also.  Thank you!

[lindtraxx]

Yes i think your surgery will go just fine , the most disturbing is the compression vest i have to wear for a couple of weeks, its not so comfortable i can say , i can hide it under a sweatshirt pretty well but it doesnt feel so good. anyway i think i can stand it for some weeks if i could stand going around with gyno for 20 years.

After having the surgery under local, I really enjoy the compression vest!  Lol!

[lindtraxx]

I wish i could too, i hate mine haha its so uncomfortable , what kind of vest do you have ? I dont have a vest its called abdocare 30 , i thinking of order a vest online instead

Not sure what brand but it's wraps around me under my arms.  No shoulder harness. How are you coming along. Has the post surgery discomfort subsided?

Not all of us are good candidates for surgery. 
I am going to have surgery on my knee on the 8th Of April.  In preparation, I had to have a cardiac stress test.   It was slightly abnormal so I then had an ultrasound on my legs to check on the circulation there. then I had to go off my diabetic medication for three days before and three days after an Angiogram.   I still have appointments next week with my primary care Doctor, the Cardiologist, and the Orthopedic Surgeon.  More blood work to do in advance of the surgery as well.  
I have had Gynecomastia since early puberty, but somehow in the overall scheme of things it is a relatively minor issue.

How has the recovery going guys? I have my surgery in 2 days.  Hope all is well.

Im post op day 6 now , it seems to going pretty well, im a bit soore in my chest feels like a hard workout at the gym , but i have no pain, i can move my arms good over my head and so. I have some problem with sleep beacuse i have to try sleep on my back. Over all i think the recovery is going good so far. Goodluck with your surgery
