I just got back from my first Endo appointment, i had been self medicating for 9 months and expected a lecture but none came, seems like he typed on the computer for ages asking all kinds of questions, he also did a physical exam and noted that my spleen was enlarged, but that's all that was said about it. He went over what i was taking and everything was ok except i was taking too much gel, he went over what hrt can and can't do and because i have some breast development showed me how to do a self breast exam. He scheduled a bunch of labs and i added to that T & E levels, he said i really didn't need those but i wanted them done, i also had him schedule a Karyotype test just for my own peace of mind, it's not going to change who i am but at least I'll know. I left the office with 3 prescriptions and another appointment 6 months from now, unfortunately my local Walmart was out of most of the scripts but will have them tomorrow afternoon.
I feels good to be under a Doctor's care and officially under way.
Paula.
