Title: I’m a little nervous about tomorrow
Post by: Stephk on March 10, 2019, 05:55:33 PM
I messaged my primary care on Thursday. I had wanted to know if what we had discussed was shots, or pills, and could I keep going to the therapist I was seeing, or did I have to use the va for sr.  A nurse got back to me, and asked, what meds? My primary care was out until Monday. She also asked about the therapist. I replied back to her female hormones, and the therapist was helping with ptsd, anxiety, and of course the whole male to female thing.
I know the doctor will be contacting me on Monday. I am going to move forward and take an endocrinologist appointment. Then hormones.. I'm excited, and a bit nervous. But enough is enough for me.. I've been fighting this since I was at least 5. Time to truly be happy...

Don't be nervous, listen to your own enthusiasm and resolve in your second paragraph. Kick butt and take what you need, you will be fine!

Before going on HRT they want baseline levels, so they might want to do blood work.
