I made my endo appointment today but she couldn't see me until Oct 22nd. Bummer. But they called back a few hours later and asked if I could come in Monday! So I said Of COURSE. I think my therapist made a call for me. She is so caring and wonderful.
I am so blessed.
Congrats!! :D
Is this your first endo appointment? And if so, does this mean you will be on hormones soon?
Hormones do not make the man or women, only actions to that. The drugs are just a supplement. That's all.
OOOO That is brilliant hun! Bet your counting down the days, hours, minutes!
Yes, yesterday was my first appointment. However, it didn't go as I expected. The Doc wants to run more test and have me take a supplement for 4 weeks to stabilize my estradiol. Then do a saliva test and go from there. So I didn't get the script I was expecting.
I was so dissapointed with this process after waiting a lifetime that I had an axiety attack in my car and could not stop sobbing and crying for 3 hours. The EMT's were called and I was taken to the emergency room for observation.
My wife had to drive over an hour to come get me as she had no idea where I was when she got the emergency call. I've never had that type of experience before and the only reason I didn't end up in the psych ward was because Tracy, a very the sweet EMT that I confided in what was going on, said that wasn't the right place for me and coached me on what not to say. Close one.
So today I've called to make an appointment with my GT and Shrink and go from here. I'm ok but still on the edge.
The good news is that my wife is now fully up to speed with where I am and didn't throw me out. She isn't happy and we haven't negotiated terms but at least it is all out in the open and we are working through the options for the family.
I hope this isn't too much to share.
So sorry to hear that but at least you're not in the hospital or much worse. At least you have something to look forward to and some of your anxieties are over since you have stuff out in the open.
Things will work out. :)
I hope the best for you....
Thank you, you are very sweet. Things will get better now that I won't be fooling myself or anyone else.
