Well…I think?
I woke up absolutely sure I was gonna just cancel the endo’s appointment, pretend to be sick and stay at home. Buuuuut, I’m so glad I didn’t!

He addressed my lactation concerns, confirmed high prolactin from my last test and took my blood again. He said that if this one came back high too, I’d have to get an MRI, which I’m really fucking scared of doing 😭

But, but! I asked him about prolonging my injection interval from 3 to 4 days. I was already doing that, I switched as soon as I saw my results, so basically behind his back (oops), but I just wanted to make sure he knew. He was absolutely fine with it, of course.

Also! This was completely unexpected, but he himself offered me the option of monotherapy! Which completely blew my mind, cause endos in this country fucking suck in general and are for some reason hellbent on prescribing 50mg+ of cypro any chance they get. I guess his reputation doesn’t lie…
So of course I accepted, I’ve been looking forward to ditching cypro so fucking much. So byebye, overkill white pills! Oh and I can drink now, I guess?
Although, if my T shoots up, I’m gonna fucking die. But that hopefully shouldn’t happen with 5mg EV every 4 days…

And also, I got an SRS referral letter for the Suporn clinic! Signed and stamped by my endo. Already sent the clinic an email, so hope that turns out okay. It’s…really important to me. And now I’m (hopefully) one step closer!

All in all, great! I’m so glad I didn’t just stay at home, lol. Although I was totally planning it. The lack of motivation and anhedonia from withdrawal is reaaaaaally uncomfortable. But…I think I’m doing okay 💜

Edit: I had one can of beer! And I’m drunk af, lol. Zero alcohol tolerance at all! I don’t drink very often, either.

    The one of today - “Česká” restaurant by the name, full of pilsner, a little kozel - but somehow more a kozlovna in style.

    Used to visit some Svejk weekly with own pack, until they came out as bigots, so no more… My top1 (even have it on my lemmy profile background lol) and top2 taverns are in Prague too, yet I’m not even Czech… oopsie. Also not drinking much since hrt, just happened today coz of friends.

    For the stress part, fuck me, it was hrt related after all, doing progress, to say that much. That makes life lovely.

    Lets go CUUUUUUUUUUUUUTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

      Pilsner is good! Kozel too. I hear anyway, I hate beer…

      Don’t go to Švejk tho 😭
      If it’s the one I know, the food is mediocre at best with prices like the center of freaking Vienna. It’s actually a scam, it’s insane.

      I’m glad you like Prague tho. It’s a nice city and it’s definitely one of the more liberal places in this country. Super glad 🩷

      Lets go CUUUUUUUUUUUUUTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

      YEEEEEEEAH 🤘💜🩷

        Afaik, there’s hundreds of Svejks all around the world. Unregistered mark, ez to recognise, many older peoples know books or movies well. One in my town was quite friendly at time, up to moment I did discover peoples there, at times when world was not so divided between lefties and righties, while we all could sit at single table and talk star wars…

        Pilsner is good? nah, it’s terrible, their super aggressive marketing, buyouting every place possible, getting monopoly on supply and increasing prices af… And even taste, it’s nothing super special, much good, but I never got an orgasm by drinking pilsner urquel ;d

        CUTIE - lets do 20!

          Aha, that makes more sense. I’ve definitely seen a couple around…I just know that one particular one in Prague that sucks

          Pilsner is good? nah, it’s terrible

          WHAT 😭
          I mean, literally everyone who drinks beer around me (so everyone, lol) has praised Pilsner so much…waow. You might be the first to do the opposite. That’s something special :3

          I never got an orgasm by drinking pilsner urquel ;d

          Me neither girlie. Me neither 😂

          CUTIE - lets do 20!

          Already done. I’m ahead :3
          I’m so…old tho 😭
          I mean, it’s easier each day, but still, 20 squats is nothing. Omfg 😭
          Still, thanks for making me do this. I desperately need to get in shape a bit 💜

            Maybe get some dumbbells too :P

            More or less recently started getting into shape as well and I can’t complain. 15 minutes every day and I feel like a new person.

            All I’m doing are squats, curls, overhead presses, crunches and bench presses. Alternating between each half of those every day.

            I know of 2 Svejks in Prague, and both are meh to me.

            Pilsner, no shame in drinking that, but have lots and lots others, that are way more in my style.

            Are You ahead? I did 3 repeats of 20 today :P - our butts must grow!
