Moving along... New updates 30 August 2018

I have an appointment with my PCP on 5/5/2018 I'll be asking her for a referral for a bi-lateral double mastectomy (aka top surgery for trans*dudes). This referral will got to my insurance and they will get me hooked up with a plastic surgeon who does this kind of surgery... I think. I found this info when I googled how my insurance handles this matter.

Stormy's Beach house(2009)

Here we are in my newest blog page. This is just randomness from me. I thought I'd created such a blog in the past, but I can't find it.

Once upon a time I had a random web forum called Stormy's Beach House. It was a fun place for friends to gather and talk about all sorts of things. I was a single mom living on the north coast of Oregon with my two older sons... obviously this happened more than 10 years ago. I miss Oregon, I miss my "Beach House".

Tonight's conversation with my dad...

I told my dad that as part of my transition, I wanted a bilateral mastectomy. He asked me why I wanted my breasts removed, only for him talk about how much he loved breasts on women.

If I identify on the masculine spectrum, I'm not a woman and I don't want my father talking about loving breasts as if he'd take it personally if I had mine removed.

My body, MY life. My transition is NOT about my parents, it's about making things right for me.

Endocrinologist

I saw the endocrinologist today. I need to get labs done, a sleep study and I don't remember if I need anything else done... oh yeah, need a dexa scan. I hope to start testosterone within the next 2 months... hopefully I'll start by 26 Sept.

I called the insurance person about a bilateral mastectomy, I hope I hear from her tomorrow. I'm so ready for the breasts to be gone.
