Does anyone have a review of Dr. Karen Vaniver?

I can't stand these stupid things attached to me. I have been trying to tell myself that because of my situation top surgery is years away. I really don't want to wait that long and I got to thinking if I assume I'm getting it, maybe I can make it work sooner.

Also, I'm 44. Is it too late for me?

Chris, Dr Garramone has done surgery on a 75 year old. As long as you're in good health.  Is it too late?  Judge for yourself. (Several top surgery references.)  Jay

Thanks buddy, I love you too brother. :)
Another thing I wanted to say, my recovery might have been easier than a lot of younger guys. I had very few problems and little pain, though it was uncomfortable.

Yes, pain wasn't an issue for me, either. Less pain than the other two younger 20's), guys in the house. You will be fine, christopher.

Ok, you guys give me hope.

It's going to be a ways off. I'm thinking that February would be the soonest I could do it. And that's so uncertain. A lot of things have to fall into place for that.

Adding- Jay, you are amazing. Thank you.

Thanks I needed that today. :)
Yeah sometimes life just sort of interferes. Sorry that I don't know who this is, but there are a lot of surgeons now that do this, so...
