Two years post op update

Realised I didn't post anything regarding my anniversary of being 2 years post op yesterday, so I guess I'm writing it now instead. I probably won't make a very long post, but yeah. I'm feeling a bit shitty right now (hungover or whatever) and can't really connect my thoughts that well, but I'll try. I had some wine to celebrate yesterday, so yeah. However, I'll include a picture or two of my chest as well, that I took yesterday. As you might know I am very pleased with the result of the operation I had 2 years ago and I still am liking the look of my chest. I know it's not 100% even and my nipples are weird in colour but I don't care much about that.

My thoughts as to why they are that way is I think the very slow healing process messed them up a little bit. But whatever. The sensation I have in them is similar to if I was to put a piece of fabric over my arm and stroke it, so they're not completely numb but almost. And that's good for me, I wanted it that way. I never could stand the sensation in them prior to surgery. I don't think I have that much to say that I haven't said already before, during other updates and what not. I'm still numb in a few places and I think it's gonna keep being that way now. The scars are fading and they show even less in reality than they do in photos.

I only had one operation and I don't think I'll have more unless they grow back when going off testosterone for having a child, but of what I've heard around, I think with the operation method used on me, it's less likely that they will grow back. Since with the method the surgeon used on me he took away more breast tissue than he would have if I had gone for another method. Because my nipples were transplanted and no nerves needed to be saved for keeping sensation. So, I should have little to no breast tissue left which does decrease the risk of them growing back, or so I've heard.

Yeah I don't think I have much else to report about my chest, because not much has happened since my 1 year update. It's hard to write when feeling like shit too. I keep rocking myself, feeling mostly weak physically and I'm distracted by that. So yeah, I think this is it for now. It's a fairly small update but I might think of more to add later on, I don't know. And oh, I'm actually surprised by how thin and pale I look in these photos. Which is a nice surprise, haha.
