I saw the doctor today. He immediatly agreed to do a food allergy and celiacs disease blood test. I didn't think it would be so easy. He just asked a few questions about what was bothering me and what happened when I ate them. I told him it was eggs and nuts. He was super nice and understanding. The lab test didn't have to be a fasting one. So I got it done right after the appointment. They took 3 or 4 huge tubes of blood the lady asked if I was ok at one point. I don't think I've ever seen tubes that big before. After that I brought my gender paperwork to my endocronlogist. I dropped it off with the nurse and then waited in the waiting room for 10 minutes so he could sign it and then the nurse brought it to us.

I'm going to the SS office in the morning to get the name and gender stuff changed with them. The appointment itself shouldn't take too long but I may have to wait a couple hours to see someone. My therapist sent me a very reassuring email this morning about some fears I had regarding SS and changing my name and gender with them.

Then I see her on Wednesday and then I go on my trip on Thursday to see my pdoc, then next week probably I'll go to the DMV to get a new ID.

But yeah today went well and I slept super good last night despite being in so much pain and I guess I just avoid cesar dressing too now.

I took some pictures of myself this morning and I don't look anoreixic skinny, but I do look very thin. I was slightly alarmed at how I looked. I have not lost any weight according to my scale or my doctors scale. So I think its just weight redistrubtion because of the shots I am on. But I am maintaining my weight now and am not losing anymore.
