Men who read this site, comparing notes out of earshot: the ones still trying to tell gland from fat, the ones counting down the weeks in a compression vest, and the ones far enough past it to be plain about the whole business. Every account here is one chest and one operation. A thread nobody answers for two months closes itself.
