everytime I go to renew my t prescription it's a a whole palava. My doctor seems to decide to hold it hostage and threaten to have it removed and. i dont think she realises??? It's exhasting everytime. Anyway, this time it seems to have magically become non repeatable so I'll have to see her irl before i get anymore. Only problem is. Im going to run out before I see her (since our health care system is. breaking). So yeah. hopefully I can get a prescription without having to have a nurses appointment.
(for the record going cold turkey on hormones is Very Bad for you and more likely to be worse for me than whatever shes decide is maybe an issue. Even putting aside that skipping even a day fucks up my mood dramatically.)
Every single time it needs to be renewed its a god damn fight, and I need to prove that I should be aloud to take the amount that was recommended to me by an actual trained specialist. There's this attitude that my natural state is off it and therefore I need to consistently show it's universally beneficial. And if anything potentially wrong that could be remotely linked to t (like say. high blood pressure with a family history and STARTING A MASTERS) then I need to be off it. Without any consideration for other causes or just that. I have no control over whether I can continue taking it she decides she doesnt want me on it anymore.
#I can't afford any appointments let alone two rn so thats Fun#Shes not even an endo???#but shes more than happy to make massive changes without any consideration for how itll affect me or referring me to an endo#(which tbf. given the waitlists for specialists atm)#shes wayyy to trigger happy to reduce my testosterone too which is very frustrating considering Im already below the general guidelines#transphobia#transandrophobia#too ig? although to be clear. Access to hormones is shitty across the board here#anyway this is another reason why I dont want a hysto even if it was available and I was able to go through surgery#relying on the good will of a dr with no training in endo is. Bad.
