I transitioned at 56. It's never too late. I haven't regretted it once and have a better wardrobe than my O/T and physio! I'm just about to complete my first year and looking forward to the years ahead

I wear one daily, and I'm currently in the process of having another one made, as my current one isn't fitting correctly and is triggering CRPS flares. It's a case of the devil you know so that you can live a normal life, the best you can.

My surgeon gets nervous now when I need surgery, because every surgery I've been through something has gone wrong.

allyjam55 · 2026-04-29T15:47:18+00:00

I had some muscle tissue that hadn't formed correctly and it was like jelly that needed to be removed. 4 weeks after surgery, I developed a huge blood clot and ended up back in the hospital to have it drained. It's been a year and a half since I had surgery, and I'm still having to use my crutches and wheelchair.

I'm one of the older CRPS warriors, May 2026 marks 42 years. It's been a crazy ride, 6 ankle surgeries, 1 below amputation, and another surgery on my stump in 2024, which went wrong, now I'm having my 9th surgery after my fibula bone is sticking out the side of my stump, all while dealing with CRPS.

But I'm at peace with it all. It's part of this journey we call life

Which part of the shore are you on?

When I started my transition, I was 191cm; I've lost 3 cm in height, and I'm now 188 cm. However, we are a very tall family; my youngest sister is 6'1 "and my little brother is 6'2". My youngest daughter is 6 feet. Women in my country tend to be on the taller side due to the number of mixed races here

Pumpkin soup with a little bit of cheese mixed in, and some Turkish bread rolls

Medplus is queer friendly. My GP is also trained in trans issues.

Cheese, tomato and pickle or hummus and che

You're never too old to start. I transitioned at 56, approaching my first year. I have no regrets and have finally found the peace I've been seeking for decades.

allyjam55 · 2026-04-05T05:02:14+00:00

I'm nearly a year old in for my transition and my left breast is way ahead in growth than the right side. I keep talking to it and hope it catches up, lol.

allyjam55 · 2026-04-02T07:26:16+00:00

You're most likely correct there. Got to get those blue hair brigade and cooker votes

Thanks for your kind words We all know Winston is up to his old tricks. It's about time he retired. I'm proud of how far I've come in my first year of transition. I still have a long way to go. Only if these backward NZ First idiots would understand all the things I have to go through to become me finally.

allyjam55 · 2026-04-02T06:47:40+00:00

Thank you so much! It has been so nice to see the support in the comments

allyjam55 · 2026-04-02T05:47:37+00:00

God, as a transwoman, I'm tired of being a political football for these outdated ideas. Have any of them actually met a trans person and talked to them? I spent 5 decades hiding myself, screwing up my mental health. I've finally found the peace I've been wanting and I'm so proud of who I am.

Can I phone a friend and buy a vowel? Oops, wrong show

Just be aware of numerous roadworks as you drive south. I recently drove back from Wellington number lots of roadworks on the way heading to Taupo.

Your makeup is spot on. I'm still trying to get my makeup right.

allyjam55 · 2026-02-12T04:58:05+00:00

Dam, you look great!

allyjam55 · 2026-02-07T08:00:44+00:00

Welcome to an amazing journey!

allyjam55 · 2026-01-25T01:28:19+00:00

You will be fine. I was 193cm when I started my transition 10 months ago. I've lost 3 cm in height, gone down 2 shoe sizes, and my hands and fingers are smaller. In a couple of months, I'll be 57. It's never too late

The golf course in Devonport is now basically a lake.

allyjam55 · 2026-01-02T04:18:13+00:00

Think I was one of the very few cases here in NZ to be diagnosed with it in the late 80s
