Hey everyone!!
So I've been super busy lately and haven't made a lot of posts on here. I hope you all know it's not because I don't love each and everyone of you. I've just had SOO much going on!
Let me see if I can catch everyone up real fast. On the 8th of this month I hurt my back AGAIN!! It was the 5th time that I threw it out in the last 2 years bad enough I had to go to the doctors >.>
All work related even.
This time my manager called them and told them they had to do an x-ray and mri since I had never had one done.
I got the x-ray thankfully, and a few days later was driving to the doctors to get the results when a chevy tahoe crossed the center line and plowed into me, totaling my car and hurting my back even worse >.> I am ok, just very sore. His insurance is picking up the bill for everything, and I am in a rental car for now.
The doctor ordered a mri, and it seems I have Degenerative Disc Disease. What exactly that means I don't know, I get to hear how sever on monday. I received a call the other day, a week and a half after my mri... the doctor has been on vacation apparently, and was told to stop physical activity and tell my physical therapist I had ddd and that it is L3 S1, I do not know what that means. Hopefully monday!
In the meantime I've been off work since the 8th. Thankfully workmans comp kicked in after the 5th day.
My back is in a LOT of pain all the time, and I have to take a lot of pain pills and I hate it. I don't want to take any more pills then I already am.
A lot of my friends know about my ts now, and they are all very supportive! I have one that has helped me find some makeup and even took me to jc penny to get it all put on me. The girls there absolutely loved playing with my face and I had 3 of them fighting over getting to help me it was a lot of fun. They were insanely sweet, although I don't think they got that I was trans. I think they just thought my friend was my girlfriend and that she was having fun with me or that I lost a bet and had to go through it. They did keep complimenting my features and kept saying if they had a pretty boyfriend they'd make him wear makeup too. It was a bit embarrassing for me, but I absolutely loved it and can't wait until I actually present and pass female.
My girlfriend and I broke up. We still live together and are best friends but the physical relationship is gone and I'm encouraging her to move on. It is very hard sometimes when she talks about this guy at work that has been talking to her but she needs it.
So there you have it! Hope everyone is well. There are a ton of posts and I can't possibly answer or read all of them with the medications atm, but hopefully anything major I can find and read here soon.
All my best!
Gabby
