I forgot about this thread.

My most recent step: going out to a club where people know me, dancing with my wife .. as me. Which also turned into my 1st ladies room visit and my first ladies room conversation.

@Faith
Dear Faith:
I read about that wonderful and very affirming night on your other thread....   
soon you will not be very welcome in the men's restroom... the men's restroom will just become a memory.

This was a great moment for you and hold on, there are more great moments in your journey to come.
Hugs,
Danielle

I finally have a "recent step" to report: my second referral letter for GRS is on the way.   ;D

Congrats on your second referral letter for GRS Kathy! BTW! Yes, the numbing cream is Emla and it works a little better. My electrolysis told me about the BLT stuff that Stephanie was talking about. I will ask my PCP for a prescription.

It's been a week today that I had a trachea shave done. Got my stitches taken out today. It's still a little sore, but I'm pleased with the results.

HI again,

I finally called a surgeon about starting the GCS or GAS as they call it to start the process!  Starting with Devin O'Brien-Coon at Hopkins! So happy yet scared!

Dear Marcie:
This is certainly good news worth celebrating.
Yes indeed....  "So happy yet scared!"
.... or as I usually phrase the same thoughts....
   "Exciting and frightening at the same time."

Please continue to keep all of us updated regarding your progress and your planned surgery dates...
Hugs and well wishes,
Danielle

I've finally added E to my Spiro. Waiting to see if my mind clears.
I'm a gender confused guy who lives an hour north of Seattle.
I believe that I was influenced by DES. I have crossdressed in public a handful of times, see avatar picture (enhanced with FaceApp).
I don't plan on transitioning, no GRS, FFS, nor BA.
I consider myself TransFeminine. But reserve the right to change my mind at any time.  ;D

Spironolactone; 7-16-2018
E sublinguals; 10-5-2018
Orchi; 2-15-19
No more Spiro.
