really bummed

so as i said earlier this week, my appointment for HRT was on 11th of july.
i went to that and as i said, my dr. had me sign my consent papers, did my little check up, and
as we ended our appointment, he sent me to the lab.
he said, with the labs, my script should be in by friday.
well, i called friday, and not only is it not in, but when i talked to the nurses, they said it looked on their file as if the dr. didn't even view the labs.
i'm really discouraged by this.
it feels like, someone promised the tin man a heart, or the scarecrow a brain on a tuesday, and tuesday comes around and there isn't a brain or heart in sight.

now i have  to wait until monday. i know what's a few more days when I've waited 22 years already. but i was so excited, and that was sort of crushed.

oh well. have to stay positive. i'm not going to wait for a certain day anymore. i'm just going to anticipate getting that call from the pharmacy that my script is in.

meh. sorry for the rant >.<

That's really messed up of them.  They should have had that stuff together.  It's good you are staying positive about it.  Don't get discouraged.  You will get it eventually.  *hugs*

thank you<3

i always get bummed about things, and rant/post about it here, but
in reality, i'm as composed as can be. you guys know my deepest thoughts and feelings here haha.
but im trying!

It's possible that the labs were delayed and he didn't have time to look at them. I know how you feel, though. I WANT IT NOW!!! (Not an Oompa-Loompa.)

[AlexanderReese]

that would make total sense because he seemed the most professional out of his staff. even the lab tech didnt seem interested in being there. only he seemed like "medically" he knew what he was saying.

Man, that really sucks, sorry to hear about that. I guess like you said, you will just have to wait to see what Monday brings, but I can completely understand your frustration. Some may say, well what difference is a couple more days gonna do? Well, when youve had your hopes all built up  to a particular time, adding more days feels like the worst months :p
   Im going through a similar thing (1st op of phallo surgery shouldve been over and done with, but I called up to find out the surgeon forgot to book me in, now theres no space. But hey, thats another story...!)
 
  I hope that the wait goes alright for you. Best thing you can do is keep your mind busy!

Sorry to hear that, mate - if there's one thing I've learned in my transition, it's to forget about timelines (difficult, I know).  Doctors, labs...basically the entire medical profession is prone to delays, mostly due to the nature of the industry.  Pharmacies also have a huge tendency to screw up.  But don't let it get you down.  Be cautiously optimistic when it comes to your expectations from your doctors and pharmacies.  It will happen eventually!

Aw That sucks. Like being all excited that something is finally at your fingertips only to find out that it's just a little bit out of reach. Ah well. I hope you hear from them on monday.
