I initially planned to have my tcr together with srs in Nov. After reading some people on the internet saying that they had suffered from different sorts of problems after having tcr with Dr Suporn, I am kinda chicken and holding back. However, I need to have my tcr done asap(by the time after srs) coz my adam apple is too big and would be too noticable as a woman living stealth. what should I do now?
I can always tell the doctor to skip my tcr at this stage coz i've told him I still wasn't sure if I would have tcr until I meet him in person and talk to him. The problem now is --how to handle the apple...
can someone give me some suggestions?

TCR? I hadn't heard that one.
Thyroid Cartilage Reduction, also known as Chondrolaryngoplasty.
Tracheal shave is more commonly used, but that's a misnomer.
Sorry, I don't have any particular advice on this, I'm wearing a turtleneck! :laugh:
