I saw my thearpist today and gave her the name of the Dr I am going to see for HRT. She said she will get me my letter typed up for the Dr by my next visit which is the 16th. I see my Endo Dr the 17th. I don't know if they get me my HRT that day or just do tests before giving me my prescriptions. I am happy regardless.

Your first visit they may at the most take enough blood to run some tests. Don't be too disappointed if you don't get any scripts that day. I actually had to wait another few weeks after my first appointment to even get blood drawn, then two weeks after that to get my first scripts. Not saying this will be your same experience, but that is how the clinic I went to operates. Hopefully they will draw blood during your first visit so they can get the tests done and pull you back in soon thereafter to look at the results and possibly give you your first scripts.
But definitely congrats on acquiring the HRT letter! You'll be on it soon.
