do any mods have experience with trans tape, and do you recommend it? I have breathing issues related to binding but I think trans tape would work better maybe.

tmitransitioning:

i put a lengthy post about this on my own page.  i would not use it in its current form.  
The adhesive in it is a known skin irritant and the manufacturer has a lot of conflicting advice on the page (including “it won’t stick to anything but skin/it will stick to itself”, “it can’t cause skin reactions/put doterra on any skin reactions” etc.)

in addition, it DOES NOT give the advice to NOT apply the tape over broken skin, which is common sense medical advice and essential to prevent further skin breakdown (rather it suggests to purchase essential oil products from him, apply them to the broken skin, and then bind using the tape you’re also purchasing from him).  
for all these reasons, the current product, in its current state, sets up some major red flags for health. 

It sounds like a good idea half formed.  it doesn’t appear to have enough oversight by medical professionals (as well as legal professionals- presently i could see at least three lawsuits from potential harm by if using the product as directed)
