We should travel somewhere together.  A broompool!

Sounds like a great idea....cruizing on my new Broom....I just updated mine to this years model as a blew the oreggabanix which was crazy as I only replaced it last century so it was time for a new one...what do you think?? ;)



But is it red and what is the sound system like?

Reached another  milestone today


Genital Zapping is finished...done...over...never to happen again :icon_dance: :icon_dance: :icon_dance:


My Prep is all but finished....I have two outstanding Items....Pay the anaesthetist.....DONE


1 thing left to do...beat my UTI into submission, have submitted another sample today as I think I have accomplished that already. It takes the results three days before the Dr's Rooms will call me if the UTI has not run its course

Now its really getting exciting!!

Hi Sarah

After thinking surgery was over and would not happen till next yea(if at all) its an incredible feeling knowing that NEXT MONTH I will be having surgeryI that I promised myself at 14  I would have....yes I am starting to get excited. I found out a few weeks ago just exactly how important it was to me... Roll on the 4th only 32 days to go.....I will be really surprised if this UTI is not fixed it sure as heck feels like it.

Take care
Liz

HRT Stop Day

Whilst not exactly 4 weeks out it is the day designated By Mr Ives  in his last instructions to me after the Surgery date change.

I know all the argument for and against but after waiting all these years to finally have this surgery I am not going to quibble over a few weeks on HRT. The least I say on the subject the lower my blood pressure will remain...which is a good thing. I have just had my Oestrogen  levels checked and somehow the sample got contaminated and they came back at over 2000 so I repeated the bloods again today. If my UTI is still active I would expect a phone call today to tell me to continue with the Antibiotics and to test again in a week , last time they called was late in the day nearly 5:40pm. I think the infection is gone...but then again, I never realised I had it in the first place. LOL I am still keeping "very" hydrated :icon_drunk: including cranberry juice  :icon_drunk: so fingers crossed it has finally gone. I would like to cruise into the last 4 weeks just maintaining my weight on its way to 85 Kgs.

Today is day one of no Oestrogen gel and traditionally I have not reacted well when my Oestrogen levels drop in the past so I will have to keep my eye on the prize...eye on the prize... :o :o

Heading out for dinner with the family tonight so that should be fun  :laugh:

Take care

Liz

Hang in there Liz. This IS happening for you. It is settled. You will have your surgery as scheduled and you will recover nicely. You will be happy as you have ever been in your life.

I had my Birthday yesterday thank you ladies and I was spoiled rotten...which is very cool. I did have to have some interaction with my parents...they only had to speak to me for less that 5 minutes without misnaming or misgendering me and managed to do both with ease in under 2 minutes." of course we use Liz along with She/Her pronouns when we speak of you" . Yeah...sure you do...sure you do. ::)

I went out for dinner, where I was the star attraction for the first 5 minutes was me but the novelty soon ran out and we all settled to a thoroughly enjoyable meal. Home for more gifts including some jazzy new walking gear which I will model for tomorrow's walk and post the glamour shoot before I head off in the morning.  :'(


I had a really nice day, very quiet,  in fact I am not sure how Jess knew it was my birthday? but either way thank you all for the kind wishes.  :D

Take care

Liz

@LizK 

Liz, I'm so happy your birthday spoiled you rotten.  That's what birthdays are for. 
Hiccups that happen in life's celebrations, such as a "relative nuisance", is best dealt with by holding your breath and patting your back, it will soon be better.

As far as me knowing it was your birthday.....
If I was the snooping type, I could say I found it nefariously.
But even though your birthdate is not on your profile, it was in the happy birthday box near the bottom of the page on most forum feeds. (Below the "who's online")

UTI DROWNED

I am going to call it....Tested 6 Days ago, no call to say positive result = no UTI...I drowned my UTI(applause erupts)...thankyou... although it could also have been scared off by the unsweetened cranberry juice that it was swimming in...makes me shudder just thinking about it. LOL

Received my (new) final instructions and admission forms for Knox surgery is an afternoon event...1:30pm.... Like Masada they have an online patient registration which I have completed and with the exception of my Meds and Dr's Details.

I actually think everything is now completely in order and paid for!!...there are no apparent barriers or even hoops between me and GCS in 4 weeks...only took me about 42 years  and 3 attempts to get my stuff together LOL  ;D

I am now looking to maintain my weight around the 89Kg Mark if Possible....so long as my BMI remains under 30 I am fine. My fitness is pretty good I just did my BP, 120/72 resting heart rate of 50 bpm. I have trimmed my daily walk to 5 KS with 1-200m "jogs" where permissible. I have promised myself if I can maintain my weight till I am out of hospital then I am going shopping for new clothes in Melbourne.

Had a busy day doing housework and now just catching up on the goings on around here

Take care

Happy birthday Liz!!! [emoji322] [emoji324] [emoji322]

So happy you had a great day and got spoilt. You deserve it.

Glad to hear you managed to ditch that UTI. Now, with all the paperwork out of the way, it should just be matter of counting down the days or hours as you seem to be doing now. [emoji2]

Hugs and happy birthday wishes!
