Huh.

And yo, AFT, wish you the best on that surgery!!!

I hope you're able to get your surgery sooner rather than later, Lee!

Yeah Lee. I hope so too. And if you ever need reassurance, we're all here for you.

Thank you guys so much. I'll be needing to get the surgery done for my increased risk of breast cancer so might as well decrease my dysphoria in the process.

Heh thanks

Two birds with one stone! Awesome!

That's great Lee. Hopefully you do get the surgery

I wish i could :(

I really hope you guys can all get rid of dysphoria as soon as possible, just stay safe!

Yeah, neither cancer or dysphoria are good so I'm glad it looks like you'll be able to get the surgery within the next few years.

I wish i could :(

Wish you could, too, and hope you will be able to one day!!!

I wish i could :(

I wish so as well, you deserve it. and I'm sure you'll be able to get it soon!

Maybe when I get money…My family is broke…

Mhm!

Ooh yeah getting blood drawn is a butt. They’re like “okay I’m just gonna stab you with this needle” and I’m like “…wait wHaT”

I get my blood drawn a lot because I've had some thyroid issues before and stuff like that. I actually mind it less than getting shots.

Oof. True… I don't quite like either. The first time I had my blood drawn, I pretty much freaked the nurse out (he was new and nervous and I was crying making it clear I didn't fuckin like needles). Apparently, I freaked him out so much that his hands were shaking while he drew my blood, which led with a huge nasty bruise right there on my arm and that bruise grew until I was like half-way up my bicep before stopping and disappearing after a few weeks. which by the way, a bruise should not grow that big after you get your blood drawn unless the person fucks up
And before anyone asks, no I did not tense my arm up at any point. I'm a masochist, I don't mind pain, so my muscles actually relax instead of tensing up like a normal person would.

Anyways yeah, that was my needle story. Sorry if it freaked you out.

Side Note: If anyone's curious as to why I was getting my blood drawn, they were testing to check my antibody levels and white blood cell count, which is how we found out that I have an autoimmune disorder that basically compromises my immune system. yay genetics

Oof Lee that all sounds terrible….I hope you feel better.

It's fine Jynnie lmao I definitely feel better knowing why I kept getting sick wasn't because I "wasn't taking enough vitamins/supplements". Thank you <3

Also, I read through again and you've got thyroid issues too huh? (Not for me, for my best friend. He was born without thyroids so yeah…)
I'm sorry you have to deal with those issues. They aren't quite fun either, from what I've been told.

Wow, sorry that happened to you, Lee, that's gotta suck. I've never had anyone fuck up on me while in the process.

Oof

Little me tried to punch the nurse in the face. I was not a happy child. But I was only 7 or something so I didn’t do any damage :’)

Wow…

I’m a very angry hooman to say the least. Luckily I got that mostly under control now.

I can relate.
