Alright BLACK MEN, because we don’t typically take care of our health, ima give you a thread of something I had to go thru for 3 almost 4 years. This is a picture of me in 2016. Just done with high school, still had my cross country/ track body. Or so I thought.
I’d gotten really big but I couldn’t tell. Based on my doctors charts I was gaining 22 pounds a year. From 2014-2017.
In 2017. Before my daughter was born, I woke up to Toya (my child’s mother) and grabbed my chest and started yelling wtf is this? @ItsTYMON walked past my room door & said “did that happen over night??!” & I said yes. I went from regular man pec, to wtf is this.
Toya at the time, said “maybe you’re fat just go to the gym. “ that wasn’t doing shit. So eventually I went to the doctor. He did a hormone test. & just said testosterone is low. But sent me to an endocrinologist. The endo said, okay? You realize u gain 22lbs a year right?
Either you have prostate cancer or a brain tumor. So having a 6 month older daughter at the time & being 21/22 im shook. We do an mri. & there’s a brain tumor on the pituitary gland. We do a thorough hormone test, my hormones converted to a pregnant woman.
At any given time I was supposed to be able to breast feed Jalani. (This is a whole mother story if we want to get into spirit/ universal shit, but basically twin spirited this is what it looks like when one is taking over) we could not remove the tumor, because it was high risk.
So they gave me a dopamine receptor agonist to stop the tumor from functioning. Now lest fast forward, for 3 years insurance would not pay for this surgery to remove these tits. I tried everything in the book. HOWEVER, they would pay if I wanted to have a sex change, that blew me
2017-2020 I tried fighting it, then my nurse friend gave me another doctor. (Dr brown.) & he told me 1k for him, 1k for the hospital, 1k for anesthesia. I paid it the next mf week. Other docs wanted 5-10k. These next pics gone be graphic asf.
June 23, best friends @_UHHHleeSha & @mamaowon took me to get it done. I talked cash shit to alicia afterwards lol. One of the happiest days of my life.
But after it was done, I was telling my doc... hold up now buddy.... this ain’t it? Why are my nipples so mf big? I want nickel size nipples, not 50c quarters.
So no charge he had me come back. Where it’s circled is the size of nickel shape nickels. Now I finally have my man body back that spirit been tryna take over for 3 years.
Now I don’t share shit like this on social media. But I am, MAINLY because I didn’t know I had a brain tumor. I still have the brain tumor. And I’ll have it until I die. You guys have to be proactive with your own body because my only sign for that tumor was those breast.
I didn’t get any other sign. But what I did do , was make sure my little brother went and got an MRI. Because I’ll be damn if he has to go thru what I went thru because nobody pays attention. Do the same for yourself. Thanks for listening .
