I am. My surgeon isn’t allowed to show me pictures. I don’t know why, but if I ever get the chance I’ll definitely ask him. Anyhow, I’m going into surgery only having seen a few results online from the same surgeon, all of them peri, while I’m getting DI. It’s definitely a source of worry but I’m not very stressed, and this is what helps me when I start to worry too much: I think about what I want most, and for me that is a flat chest, so if something is uneven or something like that, I can live with it. And I think about what it will feel like to have a flat chest, and that thought alone makes me happy. I also think about how the surgeon seemed when I met him - to me he seemed nice, professional, kind and confident in a relaxed sort of way, and that comforts me, that I feel safe with him as a person and am able to trust him.

I hope you can find comfort in something as well, going into surgery. I wish you all the best!! <3
