WARNING WARNING

This is a video of a GRS / SRS operation preformed by doctor Marcy Bowers. It is VERY BLOODY AND GRAPHIC. The 3 hour surgery has been compressed down to 6 minutes.

We had a postop that recently left to carry on with her life

who is a good friend of mine.Years ago she sent me a video of

one of her local girlfriend's surgery,begining to end.It was

pretty long and very graphic.With the work preformed by Dr Kunaporn.

Know what it did for me? Made me want mine that much more.

Nice video Princess Nova, although very graphic. If you faint at the sight of blood you probably won't want to watch this. I agree with Angie though, this makes me want SRS much more, especially since Dr Bowers is the closest to me and probably where I will go.

Actually I really needed this and makes me more determined to get to this point.

That was really interesting to watch. I now see how easy it would be to have a fistula happen, which I didn't fully understand before.

I wonder if there's any similar videos for FTMs.

I have seen several other srs operations that are on the net but the quality are not as good.

I have my surgery scheduled for next year, watching these videos grosses me out a bit but it does make me want to get it asap, thank goodness i will be out for the 5 hour operation, oh well the next 11 months 3 weeks and 5 days will fly by and also drag, lots of things to do to get ready for before and after.

wow... I had no idea it was that "easy". I mean... I have absolutely no problem with that at all! I agree with the rest of you, this makes me want it more! Marcy Bowers made a youtube vid into an awesome ad lol.

Ummmmmmm...

In 1986 I had both of my hips replaced...

I wasn't that interested in seeing it at all...

I just wanted to be able to walk at the end.....

Same with SRS!

Jessica, the operation is not as easy as it looks, Dr. Mcginn my surgeon said the operation will take 5 hours if there are no complications along the way, there are many risks that can happen, death, DVT, stroke, heart attack and one that is rare but has a 1% chance of happening is rectal-vaginal fistula that Angie posted about last week, regardless of those risks i have scheduled surgery for next year, i have started dieting to lose the 50-60 pounds i need to lose to get to a bmi of less than 28, exercising with a personal trainer who knows my goals so i can be in great physical shape.

I didn't mean "easy" so to speak... I meant more like, looks like something I could handle. I am well aware of the incredibly dangerous risk factors. I just meant that, in my mind the surgery would have been much more dramatic. That's all :)

Wow, Thank you for posting this, I am still in awe that this surgery can be done. Until you see it, it is kind of something you just hear about and wonder how it is really done (to me anyway) But it does make me want to have it so much more. I think the risks are pretty much the same as many surgeries (DVT, stroke, heart attack etc) but there are many precautions they take to avoid them. As long as you are in good health, not over weight, dont smoke, and no big risk factors eg coagulation problems etc surgeries are mostly the same when it comes to risks. (nurse Nadine speaking)

My wife always tells me her grandmother used to say to her it takes great pains to be beautiful.

Fascinating!

It was cool to see how the procedure works, though!

That was amazing! I am blown away by the skills of the surgeons.

I cannot wait for my turn! (reaches in her pocket and pulls out cobwebs)

I can't believe I made it through the whole thing. I can't even watch fake surgery on tv shows. But yeah, wow. That was awesome, except for the blood and the cutting of flesh and whatnot.

I'm very happy that some of my sisters have enjoys this video. It was given to me by Doctor Bowers herself and it changed my life.

My reaction is similar. I've seen many videos of the procedure over the years, and many, many photos, and this is a good summary. I want to be informed. But my reaction was no different than if it was heart surgery or an appendectomy -- it's the cutting and the blood that make me gasp. The fact that it was SRS and that organ was almost secondary, and I was interested in what the surgeon was creating, and how. It was things to come, not something fearful.

      Dump that doctor!   A doctor is a HIRED SERVICE PROFESSIONAL.  No more "holy" than a mechanic, a plumber, or anybody else in the trades.  Just like anybody else you hire, if they have a bad attitude or do crap quality work, get rid of them ASAP.  It amazes me how in the USA we don't have clear prices related to medical services, and how people will put up with crap from a doctor that they wouldn't from anybody else.  And it seems that doctors give bad service at approximately the same rate as other tradespeople.  Good help is hard to find!   Your body is more important than your car or your bathtub. Don't be afraid to assert yourself.

      I can't do that for myself...my partners do that for me. I guess I'm damaged goods.  I think part of me never totally grew up, because I'm not able to do adulting on my own.  There's no "wise parent" part of me because I didn't get here on my own.    I was stuck in my parents' house until GF rescued me.  Before age 26, my parents made all my decisions.  After age 26, I maybe decide some things, but mostly GF or my husband take care of it.  I need my partners around to remember even the basic stuff, like sleeping and eating at reasonable times.  Solo, I'm totally lost.

      Now that I think about it, part of why I enjoy my noisy family so much is because I don't have to have much of an inner life.  I don't really like being left to my own thoughts....all that mess in my brain.  Maybe better to have an active outer life than an inner one?

      Sometimes we are faced with situations where the only response possible is grief.  Things will never be as we want them; people die, we lose things we cherish, we do not obtain what we earnestly desire.  I see some of those situations here; there are tools available to help you through the grieving process.  It's not easy.

      I would be happy to just have 4 disabilities. I take 27 different medications and it does little. I tried working when I got out of the military but couldn't maintain one. I have a lot of mental disorders myself. It would be neat to learn about each other's background. I do understand just wanting to be normal. My job is a stay-at-home parent which is exactly tougher than a regular job especially being a single parent.

      Rich as in happy? Far from it. I'm happy about my kids but I shouldn't put all my happiness on them. I take care of myself and do the best I can. I'm happy and content that I have a house and car but nothing that can't be taken away from me like in an instant. I completely lack motivation and don't even want to do my walks anymore. I can't get a membership somewhere because I have kids that are mostly with me. I put myself out there for hoping something to come up and be good, but it's has always been like getting hit in the back of the head.

      Oh I'm wearing a blessed girl t shirt and blue capris. Nothing special today. It was just doing nothing day and feel guilty about it.

      Hi, I don't think I have enough posts to PM yet I don't think (I think it's 5?). I'm poor myself since I can't work, but my parents are luckily helping me get surgery covered by insurance since I am still on their insurance and they have flexible spending each year. I live far away from them, halfway across the country, but I'm glad I have their support.   On the day to day... having a disability sucks. I wish I could just work like everyone else and have a normal life, but my mental disorders prevent me from doing most things.   I'm glad someone else understands at least.

      Very pretty y'all. 4" heels is the max I can handle and not for long period of time. I don't see how women wear 5" and above. I love my feet. I sure don't want to punish them.

      Well just been doing a lot of self reflection and a lot of gender dysphoria that has caused me to break down. The realization has been that I'm a trial period for men and women don't even consider me. It's getting dim. I have put myself out there by force even when I didn't want to. I have one friend but still haven't seen her IRL yet. We talk on Sundays and it's always me that starts it. Another person only talks to me when they want something. It's never been hey how are you doing. It's almost a month to my birthday and it's all just my mom, sister, nephew that are coming. So much for a 40th birthday party. I hate these posts. I want to be optimistic, positive and cheerful but I haven't seen anything go my way. I'm making it by the skin of my teeth. I wished I could just go into a coma for a year or just not wake up.

      Sorry I have been absent a lot but I do read your posts though.

      @Michelle_S lol it took a year to get that many. It's nice to have a large number but having the thoughts of helping someone far outweigh the number of posts. I have been absent a lot lately. Back at it tomorrow though lol.
