Hi everyone!!!  I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!!  I know I will!!!!  For me, on June 27th, my world will change most drastically.  That's the day of my mammoplasty.  I am so happy!!!  As a 47y/o transsexual woman I thought this might never happen to me. After being diagnosed with AIDS in 1995, while I was a senior in college studying journalism and chemistry, I never thought I could be the woman I am.  But somehow I prevailed.  And even though at present I am wheelchair bound, I know I have a lot to offer to our community.  But, right now, I need to ask this-- are there any women here who have gone thru mammoplasty?  If so, I would really love to have a dialogue with you.  Just anything you think might help me.  My doctor and I agreed I should probably get 35C's. She and I both also agreed on a size that is proportional to my body.  I mean, I don't wanna be top heavy.  But I do, ya know, kinda be noticed somewhat.  Anywho.  I can't wait till the 27th.  I would really appreciate discussing this with someone.  Thanks.  And Much Love.  Stephanie
Don't really know what to write here...  So I'll just write a little about myself.  For conciseness, I am a 48 y/o pre-op transsexual who's in a wheelchair.  I'm wheelchair bound due to AVN(avascular necrosis) which took three and a half inches from my right femur and I acquired due to HIV.  I got infected by the first man I was ever with.  So, after spending 40+ years in Texas and getting three felonies, I decided to move to San Francisco.
  I got here in 2010 and continued to drug myself until something happened...  I don't remember exactly what happened, but I do know I did something to ease my pain, which didn't help and I ended up in the ER.  After that, mind you I could still walk, barely, I was diagnosed with avascular necrosis.  Immediately I was sent to a hospital in really bad shape.  I was addicted to a copious amount of drugs and weighed less than 90lbs.  I was near death.  I spent two and a half years in hospital, quit drugs, got my own place and am doing quite well.
