You sure are lovable for being so MeanRotten.

And @Kendra, how egalitarian of you. Classless!

   I have been talking with my electrologist about my possibly getting some of my electrolysis covered through Kaiser. Christina is wanting to become a provider for Kaiser and I have been trying to help her with contacts. She finally connected with the person she needed to talk to about 2 weeks ago.  but had not heard back from her again.
  That was the status when I saw Christina for my facial torture session yesterday. Today I got a message from Christina saying she talked to the lady at Kaiser and now she needed to talk to me. I called her today and she needed to verify I was a Kaiser member and told me that I needed to get my Gender clinic doc to submit my referral to her so she could move forward in getting my electrologist set up and authorized to be my Kaiser provider.
  So now I had stuff to do to keep the ball rolling. Specifically I needed to provide my gender doc with 6 months to a year of testosterone results showing my T below 100. I took screenshots of my last 3 T labs from the VA covering about a year and a half all below 100 and manipulated them into the acceptable format needed to send them into my Kaiser Doc. (I was going to deliver everything to her in 1 envelope on Monday or Tuesday after I get my 2 letters) Anyway the Kaiser doc got then and submitted a referral for electrolysis. This will go to the woman I talked to earlier and she will then set up my electrologist as an authorized provider so I can still go the her with Kaiser covering most of the cost.
  It will be a win win win for Kaiser in getting a provider in my area, for Christina because she will be a provider and getting more clients, and for me because I won't have to go into Portland for electrolysis and will be able to continue seeing Christina at a lower cost to me.

YAY!!  I got my referral!
