I don't know. Webshots probably thought they were pornographic.

Yeah, Webshots did the same with my pics.  ::) ::) ::)

Does your ISP provide you any Webspace for Pics? My ISP gives me unlimited Pics uploading.

Sorry I haven't been on the boards lately; I've been on Vacation. I'm actually suffering from a fairly nasty sunburn from all the lounging I've been doing at the beach!

Every once in awhile I have to remind myself what it was like just one month ago. I feel better..I feel great. Others have noticed my improved outlook on life as well....even women.

I do have a deal of hard tissue on my left side, and a slight bit less on the right. I'm not sure what to consider swelling as my chest is not completely flat. Like I have said before, my chest was uneven to begin with, but I think Fielding might have either taken too much out of the left..or not enough out of the right.

My concerns are unwaranted however as my chest looks a million times better than it did before. My nipples still look a little messed up with swollen scar tissue, and the lines on the sides from the lipo look like deep little scratches. People might notice, but I don't take my shirt off around my friends much, just strangers at the beach.

Another funny thing is that you can really feel that hard stuff under your skin..feels wierd, like a piece of wood in your chest.

Oh yeah..my nipples weren't able to get hard "like when it's cold" for the first two weeks, but they are fine now and feeling has returned to both of them..they are actually more sensitive. Although, the area surrounding my nipples are still quite sensitive and prone to irritation.

Later.

Zardoz,

Were you able to get your travel expences covered by BC MSP? I am too thinking about going to Fielding for surgery but it will be pretty pricey for plance tickets for both consultation and surgery. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

I'm going to deal with that Asap. I will let you all know in here, as well as a public posting when I figure it out.

I haven't even looked into the money stuff yet. Whenever I am pissed that I am poor, or angry that I have to go to work, or whatever else I am upset about, I look in the mirror, and I stand up straight.

That is fantastic.

Same here man when I stretch my arms or make any sudden movements I can feel the 'wood' under the skin.  From what I've seen though it subsides in time.

Hi John,

I have a question for you because your prior gyno (and physique) look somewhat similar to mine – and because your immediate post-op pics look similar to my results too…

Your photos 5 months later look PHENOMINAL – I’ll be you are very happy with your results! I know I would be… ;D

I noticed that your right side was a little larger than the left – immediately after surgery…but now everything looks really symmetrical on you and I can’t believe the difference!!!!…

May I ask you if your “slightly larger” right side was “hard” or “soft (flabby)”  to the touch at first…and then later diminished – did the doctor have to drain anything more out of your right side so that you were able to have them both look the same?

The reason I ask is that my left is larger than my right and if you don’t mind taking the time to check out my photos below – I would REALLY appreciate it!!!
I am very satisfied with my right side but am pissed as hell about the left – But I don’t want to rip my doc a new a** hole before I ask someone like you – who has expereinece with all this and could give me a few pointers???

My left side started out "hard" and now is getting soft and flabby.....

P.S. – I am only 10 days post op - FYI

Don't know really.... I don't recall one way or the other.  Didn't poke around too much at it.  Sorry Dude...

No. My PS did not have to do any draining. Both sides healed equally on their own....

I would have to make an educated guess that initially, your LHS was hard as it was very swollen. Now that the swelling is starting to go down, it is starting to feel 'soft' and 'flabby'.

P.S. – I am only 10 days post op - FYI

All my swelling and bruising was gone by day 12 post-op. However, as we all know, everyone heals at different rates...   ;)

Dude....  you are in the early stages of your post-op recovery. Give your body at least a month or two to heal before going postal on your PS! Be patient Broh.... Trust me, let the swelling go down and you will like what you see.....   ;)

John.
