    Good News About Gyno

    I had surgery about 3 months ago to get rid of the gyno that i got from my last cycle. When i went to the Dr i was expecting to pay a shit load of money for the procedure, but to my suprise my insurance covered the entire thing. My Dr. is really cool and he said that the way to get your insurance to cover the operation is to tell them that the operation is a biopsy to remove the lump and test it for cancer. He said most Dr's are cool with this since they get paid either way. Also he told me that more and more insurance companys are recognizing gynocomastia as a legitamate problem and are paying for more gyno removal operations. Maybe i was just lucky, but either way that little bastard is gone. Hopefully this info can help get some of you guys get some added coverage if you ever want to have your lumps removed. Good luck.

    My Dr told me to Take like 3-5 days off depending on soreness level. The actual incesion that he made is only like a half inch long and the scar is almost not even visible. I didn't work chest for like a week just to be on the safe side, but after 3 days i continued my regular schedule for the rest of my body. There is hardly any pain involved after the operation, but just to be on the safe side my Dr. gave me 30 days worth of vicodin and a refill, if needed. Which it wasn't, just saved it for a possible injury or when my ass is extremely sore after injects. So if anyone is in mid cycle and is afraid to get the surgery cuz of fear of losing gains or cuz of pain , it's no big deal. The best decision i ever made, can't tell you how much better it makes me feel to have that shit out of me. Just be honest with your Dr, most of them don't care cuz they get paid either way.

    I get mine done on May 2nd. It is going to cost me 2.7k. Not too bad. The problem is that I got a lot of misdiagnosis from my docs at first and wasted a cycle. Did they lipo yours also? I have too wear a vest for twoo weeks.
