So yesterday I had an appointment to meet my gender affirming doctor.
I had my bp taken before I went in and it was 160 over 100.
It hasn't been that high since I had my double bypass.
Obviously I was anxious (s h itting myself)
The doctor was pretty friendly. Quite matter of fact asking questions, explaining things that a lot of people here have already explained to me before.
She started asking questions and I pulled out my medical file of everything I've been through in the last 4 years and I could see the excitement in her eyes because it simplifies things.
She asked questions about what I want and I said I just want to know if E is for me. I don't know exactly who I am despite everything I am experiencing heads towards trans.
I added I have been deeply in euphoria for a while but I have a relationship I can't lose.
She asked about my gender issues growing up... blah blah blah, my burrying it, and I said that I know it never goes away.
She just agreed.
And then all of a sudden she gave me a referral for a blood test, saying that despite all the information I gave her she needs a baseline.
AND WOW, I got up to leave and she had these bright wide open eyes and she said " I'm so excited"
Oh, I forgot, she went through the list of E ingestion types, ruled a listed through everything all the girls here have suggested, leaving patches and gel.
She started explaining gel and I said there is a bottle of gel at home that my wife has been using.
Soooo......
PS
I checked my bp this afternoon
125/75. Phew
If anybody knows Talking Heads
How Did I Get Here?
