So my flights were ok, nothing noteworthy. It’s just one hell of a trip, nearly twenty hours in total.
Arrived at the hotel Grand this morning at 0900 AM. Went to the buffet to get some breakfast while the clerks checked if my room could be prepared asap. At approx. 1045 i received access to the room. (For which they did not want to take anything) Took a hot, long shower and decided to walk to the Walmart to get some stuff and chilled in the room for a bit.
1330 - On my way to Avanti, one minute indoor stroll and there I was. Greeted by Diana (so kind) and filled in some forms. Met Ian and dr M (again, so kind). Ian asked how I found out about Avanti so I gave the boards a shoutout. We talked over the procedure once more, I was asked multiple times if i needed more explanation or if i had any other questions. No. Ian moved me to the seat and started disinfecting me, dr M came in and started injecting the lidocaine. It felt like a bunch of tiny mosquito bites. She drew out the zones and went to work. I was watching them at work, funny sight to behold. Everything went well but there is a tight spot around my base area which needs some extra attention. I received 14cc 30% and 6cc 10%. Ian wrapped me up and off i went. Up until this point no pain or discomfort, bruising and swelling seems to be under control. One entry point is still open and gives some blood from time to time, i try to help and squeeze out a little and then lightly roll it out again. I forgot my tape measure so i don’t know what size i am at. But i can say that it feels heavy. Now i’m
