I didn't want to get too specific in my thread title, but I've been given some hope in the possibility I may actually be able to have GCS one day, but I have questions.
The nitty gritty: I'm circumcised and had an orchie over 14 years ago so things have kind of shriveled from where they once were. Not much stretch left, and I didn't have all that much, to begin with. Not technically a micropenis but I never found a way to reach 6-inches and testes...well, they could never be considered ample. My urologist left my scrotum, but as I said, time has done more than cold ever could.
Just like anyone else, I would like the best results I could get with what I have. I had surgery scheduled with Dr. Suporn back in 2003 to be performed in 2004, but I didn't feel comfortable with how it would be paid for. I was dating a woman that wanted me to get my surgery and wanted to pay for it, but honestly, I was not in Love and I could not bring myself to use her like that. It wasn't worth it to my future self.
Fast forward another 15 years and I now have hope again. Hope in the form of my mom. My dad died last year and my mom found out she has cancer on Christmas Eve last year. We've since found out she has an excellent prognosis, so I'm not nearly as worried about losing her, as well, as I was in the beginning. I would much rather she hadn't reached her decision to try to help me in the way she has, but she seems genuine in her desire for me to be happy. I'm pretty sure my dad would have agreed with her decision to approach me about it.
I'm pretty sure Dr. Suporn would be out as he says that if you no longer have a scrotum to go elsewhere. Effectively, I don't.
I'd love to see an American surgeon for insurance and travel purposes and I'm hoping to attend a talk about someone's experience with Dr. Kim in Minnesota in a few hours. My concern with American surgeons is cost, mostly. While I do have a form of insurance, I honestly don't think GRS is covered and my mom has told me that funds are not unlimited, though I knew that, already.
I'm not saying I want the best results for the lowest price. If I need to wait a little longer to raise the money for the best results, I will, but that is a high priority for me. If Thailand is my only option, I'll need to discuss it with my mom and see if she'd like to take a vacation to that part of the world. She loves traveling, but not sure if she's ever wanted to go there.
Who, if anyone, is able to work with what I have described? No idea if I'll ever need it for hetero intercourse, but it would be nice if that's a possibility in the future.
