Went well! In fact... ->-bleeped-<-ing great! >_<
It wasn't at all what i expected. Neither was Dr Wylie. Made me nervous the amount of notes he took down, but he says i can have a copy and i'll get them in the post in a few days time. He discussed lots with me about what to expect and what will happen from now. If timings right and i can fit in 5 more appointments with all these other people to discuss diff stuff before christmas then he said if all is well and everyones satisfied i can start my HRT in January!! How great is that?
?
My next step now is to book in with a psychiatrist, i'm just waiting for 6pm to come around so i can call her up, discuss how much it's going to be and book it according to me being able to get the money for her. A psychiatrist? I seriously never knew those were on the list.
He says he's going to arrange as well my blood tests in preparation for the HRT, the mental health assessment and an ultra sound of my pelvis with my GP which should be happening pretty soon. He also noted that there'd be no problem when the NHS finally get funding to take me on too so i wont have to pay for any further treatment. He's also going to try and get my hormones through the NHS to be prescribed by my doc too as soon as i'm ready for them.
The only downer of the day was that my nan came with me and upon parting she handed me a letter she wrote to me... explaining how she's worried that sosciety wont accept me and that i might regret my decision when it's too late. I've written her a response which i yet need to give her. I dont think she understands just how important this is and that i know now there is no chance for me to ever go back to who i used to be. It's not an option.
