I'm googling like mad to try and do some research on mastectomies for low-income people.
I'm not really finding anything all that great right now, but if anyone here has any suggestions on what exactly I should look for, I'd greatly appreciate it.
It's just...my dysphoria is pretty high right now, and when the time comes, I want to be aware of my options, so I can make the best choice for my wallet.
Thanks guys.

I can't help you much except for to point you in the direction of the Jim Collins Foundation (http://jimcollinsfoundation.org/ (http://jimcollinsfoundation.org/)). You can apparently fill out an application for financial assistance with surgery. I'm not sure how many people they're able to help, but it can't hurt to apply. Also, some surgeons take medical credit plans such as CareCredit, but of course that requires being able to pay off the credit eventually, with interest, so I'm not sure if you're looking to go that route or not.
