I had my annual checkup today at the VA clinic. All seems well, but need to see the cardiologist for annual followup.
I surprised myself during this visit. I planned to ask about starting HRT, and I did it! I really thought I'd chicken out. The doctor said that she had no expertise in this, but would ask the higher ups what the steps would be. Being Friday pm, I didn't expect to hear anything before Monday, but got a call on my way home! Appointments are being made for me, for counselling and with specialist. I am so happy! The downside, is the financial aspect of this. I don't rate full VA care, and my PPO won't touch this.
Being 62, I doubt I'll make it to SRS (this also depends on my heart), but to at least get HRT, and bring my body in line with the girl within, will be a major achievement.
Until I know more,
Leah
