im in brazil for TCM metoidioplasty. today i went to pay the anesthesiologist and to do the consult (i couldn't pay from italy). i spoke with ubirajara, and then a brazilian journal interviewed me. its been a long interview in english.
im really happy to be here. ubirajara measured me, and said that i am 3cm. he said that sometimes happens they don't find anything inside, or it's too thight to stretch, so the patients end up with a normal metoidioplasty. even if it happens, i'm happy i've tried all of my options, and i had this experience. he also says that nobody of his patients ended up with less than 6cm. i think ill be happy with 6 cm. he draw the anatomical parts to me, and how theyll be sealed.. then i went with the journalists, they took photos and i spoke via zoom with a journalist to talk about my experience as a trans person, my childhood and my desire to have a penis. i talked about how italy, despite being free, is not enough for me and how ive worked hard to get my permanent contract in my job, wich allowed me to take my loan. i don't know where will my interview be published.
ubirajara said also that there's a 100% chance of fistula. i want it to be repaired in brazil after 6 months, together with implants and monslift, so i asked the price. he said well talk about it later in time. i asked to be operated in brazil because i suspect that in italy nobody will be ok with working with the surgery another surgeon did. and the surgeon in Pisa already said me that he doesn't repair fistulas, even if they're caused by him. ive still not contacted the surgeon in turin.
my surgery will be on monday.
