Notes from Mom:
The first injection of testosterone went well. Alex was nervous but insisted on doing the first shot himself. This is good because, considering he will be doing this the rest of his life, he needs to get used to it. The nurse was great and went through all the steps with saline first, letting him get used to handling the needles. We have to use a larger needle to draw up the testosterone because it is in a oil suspension, then we change the to a smaller gauge to inject. Anxiety was high at first but as you can tell in the video posted to Facebook, he was truly relieved after. ( Me too!) The next injection will be in two weeks and we will do it at home from now on. We won't follow up with the doc again until the end of May.
