7 tips for top surgery recovery!

[@dorian.crafts]

- ADDENDUMS - - a note on point number 4-- you DO want to wear a loose, front-opening something to your actual surgery date (button-up shirt, zip-up sweater, etc) because your surgical team might be re-dressing you after the operation while you're still unconscious!! they cant do that very well if you just have a big t-shirt - the cirque_physio/GCC recovery protocol is out! (literally a day after i posted this video lmao) the link to that can be found through cirque_physio's linktree, which i have included in the description - captions have been edited for better clarity and accuracy!

[@veselinnedkov643]

You are the second American I see on YT who says they've been yeeted out of hospital right after waking up and I find that slightly terrifying. In my country they keep you for at least 24 hours after general anesthesia.

[@KITSUMOX]

just how it is here

[@mikiyachi2]

What country is that? In Denmark, the time it takes for them to yeet you is dependent on what procedure you have done, not the type anaesthesia.

[@moss1w]

one more day in the hospital is at least a few thousand added to the bill

[@CiCodiCadno]

When I had surgery here in the UK (it was to excise an infection in the muscle tissue) I could have been released immediately, if I hadn't thrown up after eating. THAT made them keep me in overnight, in case it was a problem from the anaesthesia. Then again when my sibling had their appendix out they did have to stay overnight, so...

[@fishfish7985]

Us anastasia seems horrible my mum had sugary over there and she said they wake you up super fast compared to nhs

[@horizon5417]

no one tells you how disturbing it is to wake up with your nipples in a different place

[@SweetiBerri]

I apologise if this is a peculiar comment to make, but how you were wearing the shirt combined with the topic of the video and how casually the topic was handled genuinely invoked a feeling of hope strong enough for tears to form in my eyes. I hope this video will be useful to me in a more active way and that I'll one day find myself with a flat chest as well. This video in its entirely was just generally very comforting and hopeful for me. I hope your future is kind to you

[@dorian.crafts]

it's not peculiar, and it's comments like this that remind me how important it is to be visibly and casually trans. i forget, sometimes, that my silly little videos still matter 💜

LITERALLY the first indication i had that there was Anything Up With Them was when i was at my post-op appointment and in the middle of the whole drain removal moment my friend who was there with me was like "uh. is that supposed to happen" because apparently my nipple was just Bleeding and the nurse/technician was just like "yeah thats normal"

[@muffinman_4]

the struggles of wanting to be extremely masculine one day and extremely feminine the next (demiboy/demigirl) send help

[@lexties]

REALLL..... tbh its one of the reasons im questioning if i do wanna get top surgery later on or not 😭😭😭😭

[@opalpersonal]

top surgery and then prosthetic breasts baybeeee (this is mostly a joke but it is genuinely the rationale i used when i was questioning whether i wanted top surgery- because it's way easier to add something extra to your body than it is to take something away! hope it helps lolol)

[@Egg0-]

Depends, what's your agab? If you have boobs, bind. If you don't, wear a bra with a ton padding or smth.

[@OdinsSage]

Honestly, a little same. But ultimately I know I want full flat top surgery because I want to be able to control when I look feminine, and not have my body default that for me. Also, I cosplayed for years and am very familiar with the existence of breast forms and bra molds, so thats always an option on the days you wanna be a bit more fem. So much easier to add when you want than it is to try to minimize, especially if your chest is huge by default.

Hint for removing adhesive dressings - baby/coconut oil dripped so it can seep under the dressing will take it right off. Check with your dr to see if this is appropriate for the type of closure you have. Also look at SkinTac, which is a wipe-on barrier between skin and dressings. Source: I have Type 1 Diabetes, and have at least two adhesive dressings on my person at all times. My skin can get angry, and these things can help!

[@beesquestionmark]

I just got top surgery 2 months ago :D my nipples really were terrifying lol

[@spacetrashfallingdown]

This video is genuinely so helpful. I was worried about what I'd wear post surgery, wondering if I have to buy several button-ups but also couldn't figure out how I'd actually put on an open front shirt without stretching my arms out. Hearing that loose t-shirts work just fine is fantastic news to me.

[@SunnyCress]

Try putting things on without lifting your arms and stuff to get an idea of what you’ll be able to wear with MINIMUM range of motion you could ever expect

[@dorian.crafts]

an important caveat to this that i didn't think to mention in the video is that you _do_ definitely want something loose and front-opening to wear on the actual surgery date, because your surgical team might be putting your clothes back on you while you're still unconscious!

[@elijahschubert5602]

The tube in the throat really hurts, I had that too when I was younger and talking really hurt. I also can’t wait looking forward to one day being able to get this surgery

[@AShMR_]

I got my top surgery done in May of this year and I can confirm your nipples will look....really bad. I messaged my doctor to ask if my right nipple was starting to look necrotic it looked so bad... lol. So, yeah. I also need to see if they can do a revision to it because for some reason it looks like it was stitched down in the center and just looks awkward to me. >.> But, yeah, the movement bit by bit is so helpful as you heal. After the first month I had almost my full range of motion back with the exception of reaching my arms fully extended upward. A couple more weeks of gentle stretches and movements and I was good as new. I will say that I didn't lift anything over like, 5 pounds for that whole first month because I was overly anxious about pulling anything at all during that time. I had accidentally jerked my arm too much once and I was terrified I had ripped the incision open. It hurt like a mother, but I didn't rip anything thank goodness. So after that I just stopped trying to lift things that weren't super light. Also, I lost it at the lobotomy blooper. XD

[@dorian.crafts]

i never had a phantom limb kind of feeling, but i did have some moments where i was expecting them to be there for a second before i remembered they're gone, like if i folded my legs up to my chest i'd expect to feel them hit my legs first, or muscle memory telling me to hold my chest in place when i go down stairs lmao

[@noodles6239]

Hi, I'm not sure if you'll see this but I just stumbled upon your channel thanks to youtube recommendations and your videos have been an absolute treasure. I've been going through some tough times lately and watching your videos has helped me feel a little better. I love the idea of creating outfits on your own and sort of bringing your own fantasy into our mundane and depressing lives. I don't have the time, the funds, nor the skills (broke uni student) to be able to go about making all the wonderful outfits you've been making but just seeing you do what you do at least makes me feel a little inspired to find little ways to express myself, like wearing a flower hairpin like Basil from OMORI. Funny coincidence that Basil is also the name of the character in The Picture of Dorian Gray which I assume your name is a reference to. I'm not out as nonbinary to anyone irl yet so it feels rather isolating as a queer person especially when living in a conservative country (Japan), but your videos have been a sort of comfort food for my soul where I can feel safe, at least in my mind. The video where you reacted to yourself in a sweater post-op gave me secondhand gender euphoria even though I wasn't born with breasts myself. Thank you for making these videos and I hope you will continue to make more in the future.

[@dorian.crafts]

this is so sweet 😭 it makes me so happy to know that my videos can bring comfort to someone!! every time i get a comment like this it makes me think i've started filling a little internet niche that needed to be filled with queer whimsy. i hope you can find yourself in a nice supportive community soon 💜

I'm day 4 post-op so im wandering around on YT to hear other peoples' stories too. I was in post-op for about one day though I felt well enough that they honestly could have let me go. Not protocol, I guess. I opted for no grafts so my healing is already going well without the nip complication. These tips are all great. I was also limited to arm movment to about 90°. I need to keep putting more effort towards keep straightening my back and moving my arms. My shoulders and ribs have been so sore from the hunch!! Easily the most painful part of this operation. I personally have been wearing oversized tank tops because the huge arm and neck holes make it easy to pull over. I then kept a hugely oversized denim jacket to drape over my back if I got chilly. You look excellent, by the way!

[@Fenrisaconite]

As a queer person who has just had their second reduction surgery in ten years (as well as lipo, to help with shaping), I second a lot of these points! (Obviously the surgeries are similar, though not exactly the same, but I think a lot of queer folks from various ends of the gender spectrum can also benefit from this advice as well, in my case it was a combo of body dysmorphia and pain and a smidgeon of gender stuff too.) Thanks for the reminder about stretching 😬, I started feeling a lot of stiffness and soreness in my shoulders and back, and I've been really grumpy about it). I've been wearing a mix of button-ups and turtlenecks (because it's cold and under-layers are smart). I would usually sort of lean forward and "dive" into the turtlenecks. My PJ's are non-button up, but they're the nice roomy cotton ones from the UNIQLO Men's section, and very easy to get into. Coats have been really annoying though, and I usually need help. Two things I would add: * NAUSEA: If you have a sensitivity to anaesthesia, talk to your surgeon and your anesthesiologist beforehand, and ask them if something like the TIVA method would work for you. For my first reduction, I had HORRIBLE nausea, to the point where they could not release me the same day from the hospital, and it was a very stressful night that I was not prepared for. I got the TIVA method done for the recent one, and there was definitely still a normal amount of post-OP nausea, but not nearly as bad, and I felt SO MUCH BETTER AFTER. I also didn't end up needing to take my nausea meds after the first day (keep them on hand though, certain types are apparently really good if you get food poisoning.) * If you know you have Raynauds Syndrome, MENTION THIS TO YOUR DOCTOR. If you don't know what it is, it's a condition where your body over-reacts to the cold, and draws blood away from the fingers, toes, and more importantly in this case, the nipples (in an attempt to keep your blood in your core, where your organs are). In extreme cases, it can cause frostbite or gangrene. It's unlikely to come to that even from being in a cold operating room for 2+ hours, but if you do have it, you might be eligible for the free nipple graft.
