That makes it more difficult obviously
Pocket carry may be your best option, but I'm no carry expert.

Sure.
Check out Crossbreed supertuck, Old Faithful, Galco king tuck, etc.
No reason you cant carry with a tucked in shirt, but you will need to use a gun with a smaller grip length.

Kahr CM9 + Active Pro Gear belly band holster
link to Kahr website for holster
I have bought and sold a few concealed carry pistols in the last few years and this is my favorite combo by far. I also use a Crossbreed mini-tuck. The mini-tuck is nice and probably better if I ever had to draw under duress, but it's not quite as concealable. Still a great option.
Had a Kahr MK9 - basically a steel version of the CM9. Steel is too heavy IMO.
Had a Glock 26 - small pistol, but double stack is far inferior to single stack as far as comfort. I would like higher capacity, but I just didn't carry the 26 often b/c of the width.
Had a Kahr 380. Loved the size for pocket carry, but it was a 380.
You could substitute the Ruger LC9, Kimber Solo, XDS 9 (as if you will be able to find one when they come out), etc for the Kahr CM9, but the Ruger has a weird safety and crappy sights (IIRC) and the others are more expensive.

I'm not a fan of ankle carry for two reasons: 1. Discomfort. Most who start out w/ ankle carry don't stay w/ it very long before stopping it due to discomfort. Who wants an extra 1-2" strapped to one ankle all day? You may be one of the few who does......or you may be one of the many who doesn't.... 2. Drawing a gun from ankle carry is awkward at best and tactically nearly impossible at worst.
Inside the waistband (IWB) is a great option for you. As bapple mentioned, it's kind of a hassle getting holstered up every AM, but it's doable. Plus, if you get a light gun (i.e. weighs less than 1.5") you can prolly use an IWB holster w/ only one clip instead of two.
I can recommend these two IWB holsters.
