Meeting with Dr. for Orchiectomy


Ellora

Recommended Posts

Hi! I had a meeting with my Primary for a “referral” for my Orchiectomy! I’m very excited! I should be getting a call from the Dr that will be doing the Orchiectomy, if not I am to call the Dr to double check. I’m am confident I will be called soon. I will update here. ???!!!

That's great, Ellora.

 

One thing to mention to the surgeon is whether or not you plan to ever have a vaginoplasty.  That info will be important in determining how the surgery will be done.  Be sure to ask about insurance issues, too.

You also want to ask if all the "tubes" that connect your testicles will be removed as part of the procedure.  Leaving them can cause difficulties in the future.

That’s so great. Id love to have those nasty thinks removed. I’m 5 months MtF HRT and can’t wait till the year mark. Then I’ll ask my primary if she’ll refer me to a surgeon for removal. 

 

Good luck hon.

Hi! I saw The Orch Dr yesterday! It was a great visit! I first saw his resident dr, which happened to be a gorgeous blue eyed red head, (and the only reason i mention that, is in the past I might have felt awkward, but i felt comfortable and even excited like i could talk to her about in a less clinical way, if that makes any sense). We talked more about the procedure, and the safety concerns. Then of course the exam, which was a pull the shorts down type, I was wearing my favorite thong of course ?, which happened to be the first time anyone else has seen me in a thong. (rambling, but seriously it felt good, weird? No? lol) Then after, we talked more , then she said she was going to get the "Permission slip!" After signing the permission slip Dr Woo came in. We talked more about the same and did another physical exam, and he explained how the procedure would take place and what I need to do as far as care.

So now I wait until all the paperwork is complete, then I will get a call to schedule the Orchiectomy! Im very excited!!

Congratulations Ellora.  Take a few deep breaths......yes breath out as well.  I remember the excitement and happiness occasionally with the doubts that i think are quite normal.

Try to enjoy the spring in all its beauty.

      "Exstatic" is an adjective that means feeling great rapture or delight. For example, "His wife gave birth to their first child, and he was ecstatic about it". Synonyms of "ecstatic" include rapturous, entranced, enthusiastic, and frenzied.

      Absolutely. Being able to encourage, to help, others is so empowering. I've been helped by so many people over the years, I love being able to pay it forward.

      Good morning, everyone!!   A busy day ahead for me - need to cut the grass and then pick up the clippings. The grass grows so quickly this time of year. I cut almost 7 acres so that will take up most of my day. At least I can get some sun on my legs and arms!!   Time for another cup of coffee as I catch up here.   Enjoy this beautiful day we've been given.

      I started shaving my legs years ago - I started getting an occasional mild contact rash on my shins. That became my excuse to shave them for both me and my wife. Over time, the rash didn't expand...but my shaving did. Full legs....groin......chest......and finally my arms. Keeping the rash at bay was my excuse until I came out to my wife. Now I typically do a full shave on Sunday mornings. The hair is lighter but I just feel better with it gone - it helps with the dysphoria and dysmorphia. I will also typically do a chest touch-up mid week since I notice the growth more there.   I wish someone would invent a pill that would stop hair growth everywhere except on your head.

      Good morning.   im not sure where the time went.  I had a decent nights sleep,  didn’t  tell Alexa to let me sleep another 5 minutes,  I didn’t do anything extra but it’s almost time to leave and I just got here.  Definitely only a one cup morning.    I have the overhead console out of the Ford. It needed some repairs with toothpicks and glue.  Been sitting all night t for the glue to harden. I’m always to impatient with glue but not this time.  I want it to hold. Ok the next owner won’t be able to change the lightbulbs however in my defense, the are led so they will likely still work when the car goes to the salvage yard.   gotta go. Not as much on my plate at work today but it’s always busy.   Willow

      Yes, my programmer friends and I think that antivirus software is a virus.  It's constantly searching your system and slowing it down.  If you install your own OS and software on your machine, and you make backups of your personal files, then you can recover from viruses in an hour or two.  My computer is 10+ years old and is working as good as the first day I had it.   As long as my computer is doing what I want it to do, I don't care if someone is spying on my system.

      If you get a ticket, always say not guilty and go to court. Much of the time, the officer will not show up, and often the district attorney or the judge will not want to take the time. They ticket harvest because most people just agree to the fine and send them a check by mail.   If you are not a commercial driver, Most states also have a ticket forgiveness program. You take a little easy Driver's Ed Course, and it doesn't go on your record or increase your insurance prices. Explore your options!
