Hi!
So today I went to the doctor because I had a scheduled appointment.
A little history:
Back when I was married, and living in NYC, I went to a pretty popular place in the city... I forget how it's spelled... Callen-Lorde or something like that. Anywho, they scheduled me three appointments, a month apart, first consultation/blood testing, then getting to know me, and the final one was where they were gonna prescribe me lady drugs. Well, wouldn't you know it, the day I was forced to move was the day before I was supposed to go to my 3rd appointment. And I sure as hell wasn't gonna drive all the way down there, pay 30 dollars in tolls, 15 dollars in parking, and then do it all again on the way home. Especially since I'd just lost my job because of the move.
Jump to present day, I divorced the lady (she was slowing me down) and I moved up north a bit and am living with some friends who are completely 100% supporting me. Today I went to my appointment, and the doctor lady was so nice! We just kinda chatted, I told her about how I basically think my penis is just... annoying, and we just kinda shot the ->-bleeped-<- for a little while. Eventually she perscribed me my spiro and e, and sent me on my way! No letter, no blood work, just "Try this, and stick around! Come see me again in a few months, K?"
So I'm gonna do my pills twice a day and in a month, I guess she's gonna check my levels and adjust accordingly. I didn't get the patch like I wanted, or the shot because I'm scared of needles. But because I don't drink like... ever, the pill should be fine.
So yeah, I took my first doses with some milk at 6:30, and i don't know if it's a placebo effect because my mind is so happy I'm finally doing this, but it feels like love, but without the confusion. Kinda tingly... happy... settled... relaxed.
I've started a picture diary as well of my face. I'll take a pic once a week (or whenever i feel like/remember) and we'll see what happens.
