I am currently recovering from transgender surgeries. Ask me anything.

Are you having any post-operative complications?

Not too much.  Just a decent amount of pain that's making it difficult to walk around (and when I do walk around, it's usually bow legged).  I might have a minor dehiscence around my perineum, but it's very small and the surgeon says that it's very common; just keep putting bacitracin on it and keep it clean.  

Some of the facial work has left certain parts of my face feeling a bit numb.  My head, where I had brow contouring and scalp advance is a bit numb, which makes washing my hair difficult.  

Bigger boobs take a little getting used to, but I like the way they look.

I had to have a bilateral mastectomy in 2009 followed by reconstruction.  Since I was always rather lacking in the breast department, it was definitely an adjustment for me and still seems a little strange sometimes.  I actually had to argue a bit with the plastic surgeon because he was wanting me to go larger than I was comfortable with.  After all these years the implants are still soft and in clothes look pretty natural...if not like I am an old broad with perky young boobs.  At least you got to keep your nipples...mine are just a memory.  

I hope your recovery is swift and your discomfort manageable.
