I was given a list of surgeons too, with a lot of names I had heard of through the forums. Most of these well known surgeons were based in London. My doctor was asked to write to our PCT to check the funding was still in place and I let her know which of the surgeons I prefer based on my research. The PCT replied that the funding was in place but for none of the London based surgeons as there is a hospital in the county that can do the operation and I have no reason to need to go to London. So, yes I will be closer to home but I will be with a surgeon I have never heard of, dont know what surgery they offer and cant find any reference or photo's of the surgeon's work online. This hospital was not even on the list supllied by Charing Cross.
Im just going to have to be patient and wait for the 13th August to get my questions answered.

Surgical binder post-op
Will I need to wear a surgical binder after top surgery? Will this be provided by the surgeon/the NHS?

Did you get the answers that you wanted when you had your appointment?
Very sorry for the delay.

Too many years fighting the tears, Why can't the past just die. Try to for give, teach me to live, give me the strength to try. No more memories, no more silent tears, no more gazing across the wasted years, help me to say. Goodbye"
Re: Surgical binder post-op
Yes. I brought a back support and my surgeon provided another one to take home which I was supposed to wear at night. I had to wear them for 6 weeks.Will I need to wear a surgical binder after top surgery? Will this be provided by the surgeon/the NHS?
There's a common misconception that FTMs don't have a penis. I have 3. The first one is a micro penis, the second one is inside out and the third one is not attached.
