    So it started off meeting my new endocrinologist!
    Pretty much he said all we need is blood work and then lets start HRT
    So I was pretty excited how easy it's going to be to start!
    I also fasted all day so luckily I got to go right down the street and got all the blood work done right then and there! Just gotta do one small vial tomorrow and I'll be all set : )

    My endo also gave me a voice therapist to see!!!! So helpful beyond belief this man!
    He even gave me a hug and said its all going to be okay.

    So I could be starting HRT as early as next week!

    Theres more!!!! I came out!
    To everyone!
    My mother, my girlfriend of one year, my best friends.
    And guess what!
    All of them accepted me my mother didnt even shed a tear she said as long as its not cancer then if you're happy I'm happy. My girlfriend while she was very upset a lot of crying was going on during this obviously she said she would support me and be my best friend every step of the way!

    The doctor who did my blood work even gave me her personal number to call and text her if I needed anything at all!

    So next I go to therapy.
    I tell her about my fantastic day she feels If I am ready then I should start but she would like me to wait until July to be sure. I'm sure right now!!!!! So all good news all around.
    I'm now single and don't have a girlfriend but I've accepted that was going to happen.

    While I did cry a lot it's nice that it's all out and I couldn't be happier!
    My clothes come in tomorrow! Pics guys c ;

    Eh ex girlfriend may be out of the question. Just got a text from her saying she can't do this right now. At least I have everyone else supporting me.
