My blood work came back, kind of. The lab faxed it to my endo, but it was 5 minutes past closing. Which means no sleep for me, not until I hear back tomorrow and find out my e dosage. Now I am wound up.

That'll leave you on pins and needles.
Could be worse. The endo could have just left on vacation... :/
The Waiting Game can be tough. Stuff keeps cycling around in our heads, uselessly worrying and frustrating us. I recommend shopping... OK, anything to distract ourselves. (Probably why I've been here so much recently.)
I hope it goes well for you. Good luck!

Quote from: islandgirl on June 17, 2016, 06:04:25 PMI got to thinking, from the time I started therapy, to todays point of starting hrt, has been a short 4 months. I cannot believe the process went that fast. God is good, a prayer answered.
Congrats! An important step along your path! Enjoy it!
