Therefore, next month I go to the doc, and I will broach the subject for the first surgery.
As for T, my doctors are all through a Catholic hospital. Therefore, I know the chances of finding a doctor to guide my transition are extremely slim. My insurance will cover the first surgery, as it will alleviate health issues. However, I don't wish them to be..suspicious. Later, I will go for T, paying out of pocket as to not have ins involved. I'm hoping the first surgery could possibly be done this summer.
But..won't know more until I see the doc and find out what he suggests.

Well that stinks (only having one place you can go for care). :-(
When you say suspicious are you saying that you are trying to get it done under a "breast reduction", as your insurance won't pay for top surgery? I have often wondered if there are doctors willing to do that. Then many more people would have the means to get it done.
The only insurance I know that pays for top surgery is Aetna. Does anyone know of any other insurance company that now pays for it at this point?
