People please I beg for your help.

I have PC and it has gotten me the lowest of self esteems.

My dad doesn't wanna help me, he keeps telling me there is no fix for my chest. That I should get over it.

I know he is wrong.

Can someone who has had a brace please tell me if it really helps? How much time did you wear it? Where did you get it from?

Or should I go for surgery? I'm willing to even pay with my own money and I'm just 15 years old. I would do anything to just end with this!

@Lollipop96Pop well for the dad situation you could just show him this videos and some others, and i believe the brace works but i had surgery then the brace, i am very happy with my results, and if none of that works try and bulk up so it isnt noticeable, best of luck

hi boteboomable how long were you in hospital for after the operation? is the recovery painful? did you have to have a catheter inserted? did you need an epidural?

[noteboomable]

@steven9444 the recovery wasnt very paingul for me but i have very high pain tolerance, i was in the hospital for 4 or 5 days and i had a catheter and an epidural

how is that scar looking now? a lot better? also how was the cost?

[noteboomable]

@awe2ome it is still very noticeable, but you can buy scar patches and stuff to make it less noticeable, but i like the scar so i just let it stay how it looked, and i have insurance that covered it, if yours needs a reason to cover it tell them you have trouble breathing and pain while exercising, a cosmetic reason for getting surgery is not covered by health insurance

@zipflame Im really confused atm.. I got the "clearance" i bet you can say that i had to choose about a surgery.. And i dont really know what i should do? I live in Sweden. And the closest way is Denmark or Germany... Im really worried.. Know anything about it yet?

@zipflame well for me they inserted an iv in the arm before getting put to sleep, 5 hours later you wake up with catheters in you and feel some pain when waking up. they place a metal bar inside so nothing will sink in the chest. i stayed in the hospital for 6 days, but you will be put on heavy narcotics and medicine to feel less pain, the recovery is not that long and you will be fine, my operation happened almost 2 months ago and im doing great. hope things go good for you =D
