Yesterday was my last pre-T appointment with my therapist. She gave me my T letter for my appointment with an endocrinologist for today. I stayed at a friend's house because both were in the same area, rather far away from where I live, and bright and early the next morning there I was.
It was a lot easier than I thought. They basically did a regular physical, then wrote out a prescription. Then, after I already had my prescription, they took some blood for a baseline reading. Interestingly, I hear all these stories of guys who have their first several shots at their doctor, but mine literally just told me how to do it and as soon as I fill the prescription I'm supposed to just, you know, pick it up.
I'm on .5 mL every seven days. The needles in the picture are actually my practice needles. I mean, they're the same needles and they're sterile, but they were given to me so I could practice and not to use for T. Those needles I get when I buy them from whatever pharmacy I buy them at. I get paid on Tuesday, so that'll probably be when, and I'm going to give myself the injection on Thursday because I'm meeting my aunt.
So that's that! I'll keep you posted!
Happy Trails,
