So, now that I have a single active watcher I actually feel mildly obligated to update my journal. My arm still hurts from getting blood drawn today but only very mildly now. I still can't believe the guy took like 6 vials of blood, I remember when he was taking all the vials out of the drawer I was thinking "Omg is he gonna use all of those??" and my grip on the armrest tightening just a little. Thankfully, I'm not afraid of needles so after the initial pain of the needle I was relaxed and even thought it was cool to see my blood squirtin into the vials.

Anyway, the reason I was getting blood drawn was so that my doc can check out my blood, see what my hormone levels are like before he gives me any new hormones. I'm still psyched about the fact that he's not sending me to an endocrinologist at all and just taking care of the testosterone stuff himself. Aaaand, I'm totally psyched that the psychologist he got me a referral for actually called me to tell me she would like to see me and that by the end of March the government medicare stuff will finally cover her services. All in all the beginning of my medical transition has been completely and entirely smooth sailing which makes me really happy but it also kiiiinda makes me worry that something awful is gonna happen to balance it out or something..
