So …. I had to go to my primary care physician this afternoon …. I’ve got my MRI at 3:45 AM tomorrow …. ugh …. and just wanted to go over a few things with him ….<\/p>\n
“Few things” meaning bringing him up to speed on all my TS issues …. diagnosis, hormones …. you know, the basics …. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
He knew as of about 4 years ago I was having “sexual” issues of some type …. but I really haven’t seen him since then, and have never told him I was on hormones or diagnosed TS …. oh well …. it’s time.
\n
\nHe’s about my age …. I picked him from a book and hit it off with him when he was first starting out …. he is now my mom and dad’s doctor too …. he’s really great …. anyways ….<\/p>\n
I kept him outta the loop on my stuff because ….. though it’s not the best of things …. they have historically messed up my dad’s and my files a great deal …. and I didn’t want to take a chance on some inadvertent disclosures …. not to mention the whole confidentiality thing …. hospital people talk …. though I trust him …. I can’t say the same about his staff …..<\/p>\n
Anyways …. he comes in to see me …. and within seconds it’s like I saw him a couple of weeks ago …. so cool ….. we talk about Dad and his issues some …. as much as he can say anyways ….. and then I say ….<\/p>\n
“Well, I wanted to bring you up to speed about things with me.” ….. he laughed and said he had already talked with his colleague I met with last week, so he knows I’m on hormones ….<\/p>\n
We then had a great conversation …. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Apparently he has several transsexual clients ….. though he said I’m the first that is pre-transition …. WOW !!<\/p>\n
I said with doubt, “Several?”<\/p>\n
And he replied with a smirk “It is not common, common …. but it’s not rare either …. in fact, I think I have more transsexuals in my patient base than attorneys, but wouldn’t that be everyone’s preference, who wants attorneys? \ud83d\ude42 ” lol …..<\/p>\n
“Yeah, yeah, yeah ….. so you don’t mind continuing as my doctor?”<\/p>\n
“Of course not, it’s no big deal. In fact, I appreciate how you’ve described some things today, as much as I’d hate it, you might become a resource for me.”<\/p>\n
“I’d be glad to, it’ll just take three weeks before I return your call and when I do, I’ll make you wait another 45 minutes before talking to you ….. maybe I’ll have someone read to you year old magazine articles while you wait.”<\/p>\n
“Are you saying the magazines in here are only a year old?”<\/p>\n
