Actually, I've been using "transgender" bathrooms since college. Never a line for the guy's john and when you gotta go, you gotta go! And surprisingly I've only been asked to leave once (but it was by a cop) :o

@@Kindle - Congrats. Very good call. You will like testosterone. Scratching your crotch and not worrying about farting is fun. ;-)

Seriously, I have been reading about people who were basically without testosterone for a while, and then it gets supplemented and bamn, they are suddenly decisive, their sex drive rises, and clear thinking...it is GREAT stuff. (well in moderation, had an 'overdose' during puberty, don't want that much again).

The spiro is suppose to help with that... When are you having surgery... I've been at the surgeon's office all day to meet some of my insurance's requirement... Met the nut, psych and surgeon.. Got some blood work done... If all goes well with the paperwork I could be having surgeon in July

Regarding transgender bathroom access....I promise that if any one of you comes to my home state of North Carolina and wants to use the bathroom you feel comfortable with, I will lay down my life to protect you from the idiocy of my knuckle-dragging governor.

We're not all crazy in North Carolina, the rest of the country knows this, right? Pls say yes...

Especially here in Chapel Hill/Carrboro, the most wonderful progressive diverse bubble in all the South. Love my bubble, but not my Governor.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
