Out of the Blū

Life update: Me and Shaun lost our health insurance at the end of April.  We have too much in savings to be eligible for Medicaid here, so w...

This makes my third week on Testosterone and Hypothyroid meds. According to the doctor, I should be feeling pretty good by now - and I do. N...

For the past week I've been super stressed. Politically, there is a whole lot going on and I'm sure that's a strategy to overwhe...

I'm here to ramble again because it helps to quiet my mind.  Feel free to skip this.  I'm gonna break it into sections for readabili...

Today wasn't 💯, but it really wasn't bad considering how terribly I slept due to how anxious I was about work. I kind of bit off a ...

I've been on Testosterone for one week.  I've also been on meds for hypothyroid for 6 days. The first few days were rough, mood-wise...

I'm still on the struggle bus, but I did my walking, my Duolingo, and leg day today. Better late than never. I went to bed early last ni...

I'm having blood drawn in a bit. To prepare, I was told to take off my estrogen patch for at least 12 hours beforehand and skip my dose ...

I've felt run down all day. My mood isn't great, either. When I finally got out of bed, Scar was underfoot wanting to be fed and I a...

It's time for me to overshare again! TMI Warning:  I'm gonna talk about my vagina and perimenopause. Also, this is long. Some backst...

The results of my CT scan came back normal. The report was very thorough and the only thing found was a cyst on my cervix. That explains the...

I've had a really low-energy weekend.  It might be my own fault. I lost my box of Estradiol last weekend.  I was supposed to change my p...

I'm really tired of waking up at 3-5 in the morning. I'm still sleepy, it's not time to work, and I don't know what to do wi...
