Mike In some ways having no breast may take weight off your shoulders and spine. You are not unusual regards your breasts could you not save up and go for breast enlargement ? or you could ask your Doctor and explain how you feel. Breast Enlargement may be done on the NHS if this is causing your Mental Health concerns. Are you wearing a brace for your spine. I am a male and I have spine nerve and disk pain, because of my disabilities that effects my weight as I am to well built, fat, That puts weight on spine, neck and shoulders and forces me to bend when walking, with my neck and head down. The Pysio says I look like a sofa LOL

I'm trying to save for brest enlargement but it is really expensive and I have a family. I've been in touch with my doctor about this but wait to find out what they can do as it really brings me down and no I don't wear a brace at the moment as I'm not shore what is happening due to the pandemic but I have been doing physio to try and help but I'm always in pain with it. Thank you for your help it means alot

Hello MikeyI know in your eyes your problem is very real although at this time small breasts are a problem in your life try and look at it more in a positive light, this problem will help prevent stresses and strains on your spine.

Because of the pandemic they are not really operating on problems like this

However regards your spine I am not sure what the situation is at this time.

I am waiting for a telephone call today regards my neck damage, they are assessing patients over the phone on the second instance before they arrange a Hospital Appointment and possible scans, this is supposed to prevent patients picking up Covid. I know in your mind you need help and assistance and this makes your worries very real, I understand that. I have been waiting for this appointment for over seven months and still will wait a long time to be seen, you are not alone

Aww thank you I get what you mean its just horrible to live with as I feel judged all the time. As for scoliosis it's were the spine is twisting so I'm in constant pain with that too which does not help with Depression and anxiety. I hope your telephone appointment went well for you and you get the news you need for your damaged neck, hopefully you will get some form of closure to what there going to do

Mikey they are frightened to take me into hospital they want me to be seen in physio in 02/21 to get a further diagnosis. My Wife was supposed to have a scan this pm and the department had closed there was no-one there. We are all going round and round and getting no where. I have an important injection in the next week, I wonder what will happen regards that, we just need to grin and bare it

My neck may need an operation and that is what frightens them.
