Title: So it begins... at LAST!!!
Post by: Robin Mack on January 29, 2014, 09:57:42 AM
Yesterday I went in for my first endo appointment!  Long story short, I came out with a prescription for E and AAs without a problem.  What a relief!  My endo even gave me a handy-dandy indication to double my E after four weeks, so I don't have to go back to get it adjusted.  I see her again in two months.

Additionally, while I was out my boss met with HR, the big boss for our software development company, and with the rest of our department.  I am now officially out at work, and will transition either on this coming Monday or the Monday after that.

I am still a little bit in shock at how quickly things have been changing for me.  I am sorry I haven't been posting as regularly as usual here, but I've, well, been a bit busy.  If anyone wants to catch up with the going-ons in my life, you can check in with me on my blog:  The Girl Who Flies (http://robinmacklepenny.wordpress.org)

It's a labor of love and on the strength of vulnerability.  Please feel free to share it with anyone you know that might be helped by seeing that they are not alone... don't worry, it's my pen name, not my real name.  :)
