Title: New Endocrinologist - Finally on Estrogen!
Post by: Yukari-sensei on March 24, 2014, 03:47:48 PM
I haven't slept in 32 hours and still can't because I'm so happy. After working overnight, I had my first appointment with my new endocrinologist and was afraid that I would have to start all over.

I was presenting as female, and apparently I passed. When I asked if I should put my own information or my spouse's for the insurance, they said to "put down your husband". When I gave them my ID I had to explain that I was in fact me! :o

But the best thing was my doctor. She was very nice and immediately wrote up my prescription for Estradiol... and really raised my spriro dose. I took my first dose at noon and still am full of relief for today. My journey had already started, but now it's finally in gear!

All this joy and only a $30 copay and $5 prescription cost! I'm sitting on top of the world today!

Funny thing is this keeps on happening to me! When I say, "umm,  I have a wife..." they are usually, :o "oh wow! Where did you all go to  get married?" :D

Apparently I pass or being a lesbian excuses any 'masculine' traits. ???
