Droplets from the voyage of a trans-woman

 Busy, busy week. In good and bad. I haven't had any additional migraines, it's interesting and good thing. I got only one on last week's thursday and another on sunday but not any more actual migraines. I have had tons of different kinds of normal-ish headaches though, hunger headache was new experience but all of them were somehow easily explainable and treatable, like, eat, drink water and coffee and stretch a bit.  I have had hard time at work, mostly because I have been so busy during the evenings and that I have had insomnia, which has caused that I have been really tired at work and started my workdays very late. Though, as I have been so busy, I have been able to charge up my socialising batteries as I have actually seen people on several days! My occupational physician still though that bit of sick leave would be good, but because of the lack of sleep, and wrote some sleep meds (Zolpidem Vitabalans).

 Oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh 4 weeks and one day until the surgery. My spironolactone ended on week ago and today was time to start the hormonal pause. The deadline for it is actually tomorrow, but as today was the patch change day, it will not waste one patch for one day difference. I'm having most likely some degree of serie migraine.

I'm pretty sure it will continue like this for some time still as the hormonal pause started today and stirs things bit more. Yay... I saw my occupational physician on thursday and will see her on friday. She was thinking that my work time should be lowered back to 40% contract as I have possibility for that. I'm starting to feel the same as my coping has lowered like a lot. The covid situation has caused that I have been pretty much alone the pa

I only waited for a 15 minutes for the reserved time so it was good thing that I reserved that much time. I even took electric scooter to the hospital as it was something like 1.5km so I figured it would be good to not walk there and I didn't want to use public transportation. The took 6 tubes of blood and were confused about the pee sample but I after a while they gave me the container and opened the toilet for samples. The surgeon was super nice and she took a look of my genitals that if there's anything worth noting. I kinda expected that but as I'm really sensitive to cold nowadays it took me a little while to undress as I had 4 pieces of clothing I had to take away completely and 2 to move away. And it was fine. They didn't say or ask an
