yay!!! the doctor at PP walked me through the steps and it was way easier than I expected!!
she also gave me some syringes, needles, wipes and stuff because my pharmacy is being an ass and not stocking them… but I have my meds so I can do it for the next couple of weeks!!
I’ll see how I feel the next couple of days and keep up on my spiro… I can’t believe this is all happening so fast :3
transit - buses this time!!
terminal was pretty busy but I managed to snag some pics
New Flyer XN40 Xcelsior CNG
Gillig BRT Plus CNG
Congratulations! I told you they made it easy lol. Enjoy the coming boob pain and emotional changes. Those were the first things I noticed at least.
the first things I’m noticing subtly is how sunshine and rainbows everything feels rn… I have no idea if this is just what normal feels like but I haven’t had any negative feelings since I woke up and everything looks so colorful, that last one is probably just spring rolling in though
I didn’t realize how pretty the sky was until I started HRT. Looked it up and apparently perception of blue is especially sensitive to hormones
hehe for me it’s been anything red. everything red and red adjacent like a deep pink/orange is just popping out at me even if it’s something I’ve seen before… so much it might be my new favorite color if this keeps up :3
i started estradiol and bica almost exactly a month ago, and i distinctly remember my first 2 or 3 days being my happiest days of the year. I’m not unhappy now, but it’s leveled out to a more reasonable level. i would imagine its just the satisfaction of finally being set on the road to being our true selves, but it is a very nice feeling <3
also if you aren’t already, get used to wearing bras all the time. i started getting mild nipple chafing about a week ago, exacerbated because my job requires lots of upper body movement, and bras are working wonders for it.
Omg jealous!
Congrats!
yay, estrogen!
Speaking of busses, My city still has some New Flyer D40i busses still in service

And some Alexander Dennis Enviro500s as well :3
