Those days you just want to give up and cry

[CallMeKatie]

So my online GP is a bust. It's a legitimate service but the very second I asked what the cost would be I found my email address blocked.
To be clear, I just enquired as I think is a fair thing to do when asking about a service.
To make sure, I made a bogus account for a new person and sure enough the replies came in fast when I mentioned I want to go on hormones asap regardless of cost.

Oh well.

So, I have applied today for three doctors in my area, the first two called me back saying I am out of their range and the third said I am in their range and I would need to go in to sign the forms I completed online and then they need to see me to finalise my doctor transfer. ..in March.

I asked if they could do it sooner but they said they can't.
The receptionist was really rude, acting as if I was an idiot because I don't know my blood pressure over a phone call.

I feel like giving up, just saying "I'll live as a guy as this is too much hassle"
I know I can't do that.

Are ALL doctors this unpleasant or is it just the ones near me?!

I think a large number of people who have a degree of control over other people are unpleasant, to an extent. Not just medical professionals. Control freakery is rife. Certainly people I've had dealings with.

*hugs*

A couple of months is nothing compared to the rest of your life, hon.

Next time you speak to that receptionist, as if they know their blood pressure. No, probably best not to do that, lol.

My doctor was super helpful. Guess irs just the luck of the draw.

All my doctors are very supportive.  I'm in N. California, in a fairly liberal area, so.....
