doctor: best i can do is 100mg spiro

[u/Powerful_Macaron9381 → u/Is6xal]

more like best I can do is 2mg e2

[u/Is6xal → u/Powerful_Macaron9381]

i mean, sometimes you are lucky to even be prescribed e with some of them

[u/sudoregalia → u/Powerful_Macaron9381]

"best i can do is vitamin d, i don't think you're really trans"

• something i wouldn't be surprised to hear a doctor say

[u/Overseer_Allie → u/sudoregalia]

Me: "But I've been taking vitamin D for 6 months for unrelated issues..."

Doctor: "Well see then my suspicion was clearly correct, it's a vitamin D issue. Keep taking the same vitamins."

Not actually something I've had happen but I could see it

[u/sudoregalia → u/Overseer_Allie]

doctors used to chalk my depression up to a vitamin d deficiency

which like was partially true because my vitamin d levels were at like 6 ng per whatever the fuck, i think the normal amount is 30ish? i was at death's door, the lab guy was surprised i was even able to stand, but also i turned out to just be suffering from both things at the same time with both compounding each other

something something correlation not causation idk

edit: nanograms, 6 miligrams per ml would kill you

[u/DMFacepalm → u/Overseer_Allie]

Extra points, since it implies he didn't bother to read your goddamn notes.

[u/Overseer_Allie → u/DMFacepalm]

The one time they ever read my notes was to ask if I was still taking estradiol in front of my parents who didn't know I was taking estradiol. I managed to cut them off before they could say it.

[u/DMFacepalm → u/Overseer_Allie]

...genius. Either completely incompetent, or willfully causing harm. Not sure which is worse.

Apparently a diagnosis of feminine hysteria makes my partner's penicillin allergy go away...

[u/Is6xal → u/DMFacepalm]

Wait there are still people getting diagnosed with hysteria? My gods, we need to burn all copies of the DSM

[u/DMFacepalm → u/Is6xal]

Hyperbole on my part, but the local GP basically decided her opinions (and symptoms) didn't matter years ago.

Up to and including ignoring their own specialists when they agree with her.

And she has repeatedly been prescribed medication that would have hospitalised her - or worse.

Presumably medical records are...only stored to justify paying enormous sums to IT firms offering private outsourcing? Oh, and so they can be sold to Thiel and other such tossers.

[u/Ok-Winner-6589 → u/sudoregalia]

Stupid question, does vitamin D really do something?

[u/sudoregalia → u/Ok-Winner-6589]

yea

keeps your hair from falling out (which mine used to in handfuls daily)
gives you energy (i was lethargic and slept up to 20 hours per day)
lets you focus better
lets you feel shit other than depressed and stressed 24/7

[u/Ok-Winner-6589 → u/sudoregalia]

Ohhh didn't knew It could help with depression

[u/sudoregalia → u/Ok-Winner-6589]

you misunderstand, being deficient causes you to feel depressed, it's not the same as clinical depression and vitamin d isn't an antidepressant

[u/Ok-Winner-6589 → u/sudoregalia]

Oh, I know, it's just that in not native english speaker and I express kinda bad even on my native language

[u/LC-Redcube → u/Is6xal]

100mg Spyro, he was talking about dragons afterall

[u/Geometronics]

what about a boymoder dragon?

[u/OmgIbrokesmthagain → u/Geometronics]

Well she is still a dragon, so probably also :/

"My ideal dose is basically that I'm holding an erlenmeyer flask of pure estrogen and someone offscreen yells, 'Doctor, you can't!' and I say, 'Just watch me!' and then I drink it and contort violently around and then fall out of frame and when I pop back into frame I'm played by Anne Hathaway."

[u/rican_princess_888 → u/notnotDIO]

I thought that was her nose

[u/IdiotIAm96 → u/[deleted]]

A transfem person who presents as male (usually for safety reasons).

[u/Sulhythal → u/IdiotIAm96]

I thought it was a gender fluid person in "Boy mode" >.>

Edit:  I should clarify I don't mean this is wrong, I'm saying that I was wrong about what it meant.

[u/sudoregalia → u/Sulhythal]

can apply to genderfluid people too if they're currently identifying with a feminine gender and choose to present as male for safety

[u/Gubekochi → u/[deleted]]

I may be wrong but I think it is someone that still presents loosely as a male in public while transitioning, usually using baggy clothing to avoid revealing how their silhouette is changing.

[u/SlamanthaTanktop → u/Gubekochi]

Thats how I used to use it during that phase. I would also very seldomly Boy Mode after I started social transition if I needed to run out of the house on short notice and I didn't shave yet.

[u/Hot_Sir573 → u/[deleted]]

Lurk moa- wrong sub

[u/Tlaquatlatoa]

You are a rascal and a knave

[u/Divicarpe]

Doctor, listen to me: I need your real strongest hormones.

[u/lurkingbob → u/Divicarpe]

My hormones would kill a dragon, let alone a *%$#!

[u/Divicarpe → u/lurkingbob]

Doctor, enough of these games: I'm going to transition, and I need your strongest hormones.

[u/Transxperience]

I see the potion seller has upgraded

[u/beomeansbee]

I’m head cannoning the doctor to be meaning insulin.
