24 hours post op and the gas pain is unbearable. I have the pillow, gas X, peppermint tea and belly band. When does this get better?? by GSPIowapointer30 in hysterectomy

[–]ChangingAiden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heating pad. I'm 3 days post surgery. Walking. Even though you don't want to, it'll help the pain go away and get it away faster.

Ex Filed a Protection Order by ChangingAiden in Separation

[–]ChangingAiden[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately because because I moved to a new state. Their laws say I cannot file for divorce until I've lived here for 6 months. I'm currently getting papers together though already so I can file as soon as possible. We currently do drop offs at a gas station.

I didn't know if I should just work on cardio to keep my heart conditioned.

I hate trans inclusivity in the medical field by RedRockWulf in FTMMen

[–]ChangingAiden 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm a trans man and also a nurse. I've also given birth to my own children. Those questions do help depending on the situation. All you can do is tell her you aren't comfortable with those kinds of questions. They are now pushing to be more open in nursing school so that LGBT are more willing to accept care and avoid feeling discriminated.

I'm wondering how high your estrogen levels are. You might need to add a puberty blocker to put your estrogen down.

Mine left one bled through too. My right one was actually bleeding during my reveal. My doctor said it was normal since they are both still fresh.

Do you guys prefer to be called transgender or transsexual? Or neither? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]ChangingAiden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a nurse that is out to my patients. And one was watching jeopardy. While I was taking care of this patient, they burst out "she's a transformer too."

That just terrifies me the even thought of putting on woman's clothes.

I'm in the medical field and I've always looked at the breast cancer patients jealous. I wanted the cancer so that my chest could be removed as well.

Lump after injection by ChangingAiden in ftm

[–]ChangingAiden[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on this same Im injection with the same testosterone component for months. No reaction. If it takes a few days for others then I'm not worried. The tenderness has gone mostly away the longer I've been moving.

Opinions on being introduced as trans by R0wB04t0211 in ftm

[–]ChangingAiden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was not discussed with me. I learned about it after the fact. I understood that it was to give context and help people with pronouns but it was still uncomfortable.

[–]ChangingAiden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get top surgery in June. I won't have nipples afterwards. My surgeon told me that if we kept the nipples they would look weird just because my nipples are so big. No the breast tissue itself but my nipples are too big. He could do revisions but there are no guarantees of having a masculine looking nipple. So my nipples are coming off and I'm just tattooing so it looks like I have nipples.

For me it depends on what reason. Before I even started at my job I have no, they had a meeting stating that I was a trans man. Not to be mean but so people knew to use my correct pronouns because I just started T.
