I had my first session with a gender therapist at the Center for Sexual Health at the UofMN. It was mostly just him getting to know me but it was amazing. It was good to talk about it and get actual feed back rather than me trying to inform someone who knows nothing. He is being sensitive to the fact that I have a 6 hour drive from my college to get there and says I only need to meet with him once a month rather than twice. A few of the questions caught me off guard especially about my sexual life cause I don't really think about it.
I got a lot of information and got pointed in a new direction for research. I have the possibility of getting a recommendation fro hormone therapy and chest surgery in 3 months. I did a little research on chest surgery which includes pictures of the different surgeries and found one site that is very good with describing the surgery and answered a major question which is cost. I was expecting $20-40 thousand and every where I have seen the prices being quoted at $1500 to 8000 which is a lot cheaper.
Cheaper also means I can do it sooner than I had expected which is good because not only are my boobs being there annoying and wrong but they are also causing back pain and I have a feeling some of my breathing issues.
