 OK, so here’s where we’re at... The vascular surgeon gave the go ahead for estrogen and says I’m all good, but now my Endo believes she needs to contact hematology before she prescribes estrogen because either she or they seem concerned about clots forming  near or after my IVC filter, the recommendation of blood thinners is being thrown around and I wouldn’t care as it doesn’t seem to impact me any other way and blood thinners would be a reduction in blood clot risk so I see no harm. I do know that removing the IVC filter could cause complications that I don’t want, they are typically only left in temporarily now but when I had mine they only just started coming out, the good news being there are 90-year-old women wandering around In Europe with IVC filters in place and doing fine.  I guess now my next appointment will be with the hematologist to go over some details, as soon as I know more I will report back and hopefully at some point in the future I will have prescribed estrogen in my hands !

 Hugs, 

Jackie

I think patches or transdermal cream would side step that issue.

 I agree Jani, however I am already lined up for transdermal patches, they are the least likely to have clotting issues, my end it was just being so crazy over cautious that the transgender care team in Oakland is not happy with her. They already contacted her and gave her a nudge and suggested I find a different endocrinologist. One of the people in Oakland suggested that since my endocrinologist is also my wife’s endocrinologist there may be some friction Happening there, but since my wife hasn’t been to see her in over a year I can’t imagine anything funny is going on. I also can’t imagine my wife would put any pressure on the Endo to not prescribe me the correct prescription that I need since my wife was a nurse and wants to make sure the medication I take is the safest possible method. I think we’re in the final stretches here,  I feel like being patient with her is going to work well in the long run but it may be another couple weeks before we get more answers, I’m just going to be persistent and make the appointment as necessary, there’s nothing wrong with blood thinners since they do potentially offer the lower blood clot risk, that sounds fine to me. 

 Hugs, 

Jackie

I doubt there is anything funny going on due to your wife also being a patient.

      Do you have a motto or mantra?

      By Mmindy · Posted

      Other than the Boy Scout motto, oath, and law. I use two:   When asked how I'm doing? In all honesty I reply. I would have to make something up to complain. If asked to explain further: I reply. I know someone is having a tougher time than I am, and I pray God blesses them.   I also recite this quote that I have tagged in my signature: Courage, doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."-Unknown    Saying these things daily keep me motivated.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      What are you wearing today?

      By Abigail Genevieve · Posted

      If this goes on, I am conceding the real possibility of being stopped in WM or somewhere by a concerned citizen who tells me, "Lady, God made you female.  I don't think you should be trying to look like a man. You need to return to your true gender and be comfortable living your life out as a woman."   Begin odd and awkward conversation.  I have been thinking about this this morning.

      There are many MAGA GOP types who are not transphobes, of course. Some MAGA GOP types are transgender.

      Project 2025

      By Abigail Genevieve · Posted

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.

      a friend wants to cook for me

      By Mmindy · Posted

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I don't know what I'd call this

      By atlantis63 · Posted

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

      a friend wants to cook for me

      By atlantis63 · Posted

      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      Project 2025

      By Abigail Genevieve · Posted

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.

      What are you wearing today?

      By Abigail Genevieve · Posted

      Wife of mine pointed out that not getting a haircut for a month looks hideous - weird bald patches.  So back to super- short buzz cut.  This morning I braced, looking in the mirror.  I look like a woman trying to pass as a a guy, maybe  a small-breasted woman with enough T treatment to grow a mustache.    I would not believe me if I read what I write about me.  This is nuts.   White t-shirt: that they sell in the back of WM so you can tie-dye them or otherwise decorate them. They are thick and long lasting and slightly fitted, so that they could be a man's.  I like them.   Jeans, flip flops.   I will no longer point out these are women's.  What else would I wear?
