Catheter is out!! 😍🙌 It was soooo much less painful than last time...I hardly felt it. It came out so quick and smooth. Thank goodness. 😋 When I saw Dr. Ley earlier, she explained how my urethra is nice and wide and she didn’t need to scope or dilate me when putting in my catheter - that putting it in went in smooth and easy as well. She sounded very pleased. 🤗 Got to get up for the first time and move to sit in the chair after too! Eating breakfast meow, and my pain level is at about a 5 at the moment - not too bad! 😄💙 And I got to see it! The skin that was on either side of my phallus is gone and moved down to create my scrotum officially!! Eeeeee!!! 😍🙌 I’m bleeding some, but nothing serious, and there is some swelling in and around my phallus. Always keep in mind - Patience is key for these surgeries. It may look brutal at first, and the healing process is pretty amazing I’d say. Only thing left to do is pee for the first time here before I’m able to get discharged today, so waiting on that urge, and then I’ll be good to go! I am so incredibly grateful for medical science and my insurance for all of this to have been made possible for me in this life, and for my body and its ability to heal, adapt, and bounce back so quickly and smoothly. And of course - for Dr. Ley and her staff. Everyone there has been so amazing. 💙 Agh. *sigh* #sograteful #sohappy #meta #stage2 #scrotoplasty #testicularimplants #ftm #trans #transgender #medicaltransition #medicalscience #insurance #WAAppleHealth #DrLey #scottsdale #AZ #journeytohappiness #journeytofreedom #journeytopeace #dowhatsbestforyoupersonally #transandhappy #transandproud #transandgrateful (at Greenbaum Surgery Center)
