I don't want a future I can't be trans in.

This some crazy shit. It's widely known that cross sex hormones cause people to experience dramatically shortened lives and they do not inform transgender people of this side effect. Then when faced with that reality it's basically a refusal to acknowledge it.

Those are female reference ranges...now of course, maybe there is a reason I don't know about as to why you need to be below male reference ranges, but my experience has been repeatedly having to educate doctors that no, that is supposed to happen. It turns out that trans-friendly is not always trans-educated

Gee i wonder if the reason your body needs to be in the female range is because you are female?

Problem is I also am having a lot of really difficult symptoms and health problems in a lot of areas, so it’s hard to tell what’s what.

Main reason she’s concerned is bc I’m getting symptoms such as inability to regulate temperature which can be a sign of dangerously high hemoglobin levels. Idk what to do. Idk how to find a doctor more knowledgeable in trans healthcare

You want a magic doctor. That doesn't exist. It isn't that complicated. The person is being faced with reality and trying so hard to keep the blinders on.

It’s like someone who has wildly uncontrolled diabetes shopping around for a doctor that will tell them it’s fine for them to be two-fisting Ben & Jerry’s with a side of M&M’s and washing it all down with Coca-Cola.

The doctor that tells you that will be explaining that advice in the coroner’s court inquest into your death, and then again in front of his licensing board.

No one wants to be told that they’re living in cloud cuckoo land, but damn these troons and especially the troonettes are off with the fucking fairies.

I think we should stop calling what the troonettes have “social contagion” and start calling “socially contagious psychosis”.

Those doctors exist. I know we largely focus on gender identity woo here but Health At Every Size/Body Positivity/Fat Friendly woo is just as pervasive across activism influenced healthcare. We just live in deranged times.
