I got some good news yesterday

[redhead]

Everything has been approved for me to start T. I'm so excited.

I've spent most of the last week in hospital and been pretty unwell and about to have a major med change to something pretty serious so I've decided to start T when thats all sorted

@redhead thank you for updating us  - sorry if I should know this, but by T do you mean treatment or hormones? 

Sounds like you've got a good plan - doing one thing at a time! 
I hope the new med change goes well, and helps you out. Being in hospital most of the week unwell sounds horrible

@gina-RO I think T refers to testosterone? @redhead correct me if I'm wrong

That's really exciting though! So glad you've got some good news to look forward to

@gina-RO @lokifish Yeh T is testosterone


Gina I actually have to go back to hospital in a few weeks to actually start the medication. It can have deadly side effects so you need to be closely monitored the first week of treatment

@redhead I thought so, thanks for clarifying  

That's super exciting that you'll be able to start T soon! So glad you were approved. 

The new medication sounds really rough - sorry that you'll have to be in hospital as you're starting it, but good to know that you'll be monitored and kept safe while you do. I really hope that the medication is helpful once you're settled on the right dose.

Good luck with your med change, I hope it goes smoothly and is not too uncomfortable
