didn't sleep well... well, to be fair I haven't slept well for about a week now. Between hot flashes, the weather changes and my hormones, I'm lucky to get 4-5 hours of good sleep a night. The point being that I know how much not being able to sleep messes you up

Oh honey do I know this feeling.  I don’t have hot flashes but went through all the other stuff when I stopped my SM HRT.  I would of been happy for 4-5 hours.

From what you said it sounds likely. I would guess that since you're not opposed to having them out it's much safer to extract them both anyways. That's my logic anyways.

 

I'm sorry you had to go through so much pain but I'm glad you're on your way to a specialist who snips them off for a living!

One was to “keep it elevated” and supported in something tight.  How the heck do you keep that elevated?!?!?

 

Gaff panty over your regular panties and a tuck. It's what I wear when I have to go out in public. It keeps the testicles immobilized up in the inguinal canal and gives you a nice, flat appearance as a bonus. No chance of the "little guy" having a look-around either. Use powder though, that's the last place you want a friction sore. I just liberally sprinkle some Gold Bond body powder in my panties and I'm good to go.

 

I know this sucks, but it looks like you're in line with your orchi. Depending on what the consultant says of course, but I've heard in cases like this it can go as quickly as, "Do you want them out Wednesday or Thursday?" Just a little good luck sprinkled in with the bad. If you get them out next week, we're recovery sisters!

 

Hugs!

Yes and it’s another women doctor.  I hoping not one with some vendetta against men/AMAB.  Seems like a revenge type job for a women.  Lol

Believe me Jackie. I have not forgotten about your impending surgery either.  I’m praying to the Goddess for you my friend.

So she starts to “examine” me and she hit a nerve or something but it about sent me to the floor.

Hope you feel a little better after some rest tonight.  That had to be painful.  I’m so sorry you had to endure that.  Stay positive hon! Sounds like you’re in good hands though.


Get Well,

Susan R?

Well, I guess you can look at it as a blessing in disguise. You can at least know that that you won’t be having any more issues with them in the near future and you’ll be able to save your body from the side effects of a daily AA pill. Hopefully they can get this done for you quickly so you don’t have to continue to bear the pain. Hang in there girl. Hugs!

Ok I finally was able to go see the surgeon today.  The appointment went as good as I could of hoped for.  
The lump is bad and very enflamed. I am on some antibiotics and strong pain killers for now to see if we can calm it down in there.   It’s has to be removed either way. She put in the order to have both testicles removed as long as the insurance will allow the good one to be removed at the same time.  They don’t see an issue getting that approved but as of today it’s not a 100% done deal.  So I plan to have all my recommendation letters all in order by the end of this month.  Surgery scheduled for April 13th.  
im told it’s an hour surgery then a week off.  
There goes my Maine vacation in November.  Lol

Oh well this is far more important.  ???

 

A little side note is my surgeon is gorgeous young and a lesbian. Yes this makes things difficult for me as I am super attracted to her.  Great. ?☺️?

 

What is it with all these super hot urologists?!?!?

      It's kinda weird how these people are so worked up over making these laws.  They would have no effect on cis people either way.  Yet they are the ones with the obsession.  They ought to just stay out of trans people's business.

      Bean burritos are still popular in my family.   Black eyed peas are the one legume I'm not fond of.  I need to add lots of onions. And of course always cook your pintoes with fat-meat.  And for y'all yankees, navy beans with a big ol' ham bone are hard to beat.

      Seek out community, not just online but in person if possible. Making trans friends is a pretty quick and easy way to gauge if you have much in common with them.

      Glad to be home and did go out for a walk this morning.Good thing is that went good.Still taking it easy

      It certainly could be classed as dark humor.  Unfortunately the sentiments alone must hurt young trans folks.  Decency and reality doesn't seem to be in the GOP's vocabulary.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Good morning all,    It’s a frosty morning here the lawn looks silvery, and the uncovered spring flowers have icy edges on their leaves. The only flower bed I covered was my tulips. As nice as it is here during the day, our clear wind free nights allow the temperatures to drop into the mid twenties. Here in our growing zone it’s recommended that you not plant delicate plants until Mother’s Day. Central Indiana can have snow as late as the third week of May. The birds are active at the feeders, I’ve had my cup of yoghurt and morning meds. So I’ll sit here, drink coffee and watch the as the sunrise chases the frost from the yard.    @awkward-yet-sweet I could eat black eyed peas as a side for every meal. Boil them plain or with fatback. Served as a leftover, just add in a little Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies.  Make the best of your day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Had a weird dream last night.
    • Mirrabooka
      Morning, y'all. Evening here; we had the regulation three mugs full today. Now it's time to drink something else.     No big plans here either, eldest daughter and granddaughter will be arriving on Saturday, and we will have our granddaughter to ourselves for a week after that. We still have plans though. Tuesday we'll go to the swim center, Wednesday we'll take a road trip to visit my mom, Thursday we'll get some mulch delivered to top up the gardens.   I still make other small plans on a daily basis though. The things I do plan nowadays, which is a bit new for me, is that after pinching a nerve and ending up in a bit of pain and getting some treatment from the physio, I am more motivated than ever to exercise more regularly. Tuesday for example, I went for a short (15 minute) early morning walk, went to the pool for some hydrotherapy, and mowed the lawns. Yesterday I did my exercise reps and spent some time on the exercise bike. Today, I went for a 45-minute walk, tomorrow I will do my reps again and go for a long bike ride. As long as I do at least one thing every day, right? The pleasing thing is that I'm losing weight! I blew out to above 95kg early in the year and I'm just under 91kg now. Yay me!

      What one piece of advice would you give to beginning transitioners or considering transition?

      Positive side of the mixed bag.

      Boredom is an emotional state that comes when a person has nothing to do, and is not interested in anything. To stop boredom, most people do something to occupy or amuse themselves. The first known use of the word boredom is in the novel Bleak House by Charles Dickens, written in 1852, but the saying to be a bore had been used to mean "to be tiresome or dull" since 1768. When referring to the mind, boredom is a bad state in which the person feels a deep lack of interest in what is going on around them, and where it is hard to focus.
