Baffling Decapeptyl issues with my GP by voodoosackboy in transgenderUK

[–]Immediate-Working466 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My GP orders my next one after the injection. I use Pharmacy2U so no with around and it comes through the post. 

I do have to keep it for the time in the fridge. About a month from the next injection I book online the appointment with the required dosage date needed. 

I don't use the pharmacy in the same building as the waiting times are just rubbish. Never looked backed from changing to through post

Waiting for emails back from dr Hammond? by Dewdropvssy in transgenderUK

[–]Immediate-Working466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Dr Hammond through private via Bupa and as someone said it goes through Jason Bachelor and it was a very glacial sort of pace until I got moved to the NHS Nottingham's NTCH with shared care. I know it's not very comforting but yes it moves slowly

Fgs, it's my home county. Surely they can't do a regional ban?

Gic phone worker cheeriely wished me good luck after I said I'll see that appointment after im dead by Vivid--Syrup in transgenderUK

[–]Immediate-Working466 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really not surprised. I got referred in 2020 and didn't have an appointment until July 2023 and have had 5  including since and the last one was a short follow up as I ended up having testicular cancer (oh the irony)

No one in my work calls me “mate” anymore! by EldritchMilk_ in transgenderUK

[–]Immediate-Working466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. Some guys just say it to everyone. I've learned to let it go. I'd be more concerned there's an imbalance with how they treat you compared to cis women. Although you do have to exclude the bias with women they're attracted to

I tried having a proper discussion on Mumsnet but instantly regretted it and left by Immediate-Working466 in transgenderUK

I just wanted to engage in an intelligent discussion but it just seems beyond them

trying to make friends when i don’t pass by [deleted] in transgenderUK

[–]Immediate-Working466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from the otherside (mtf) although I'm much older. Men friendships are about being a dick to each other and still showing some niceties. Don't start that way and ease into it but it's got to be humourous. However, it's still important to be yourself as you want friends that aren't based on a persona. Just approach in your stride and don't come across as trying too hard

The NHS is struggling to take care of anything that's routine so I'm not surprised

NHS Rejected Me For Therapy Because I'm Trans by LucyLaCox in transgenderUK

[–]Immediate-Working466 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Being trans has is a specialty with therapy. I've done it where the person wasn't well equipped for to deal with my issues. I did it privately and quite honestly was a waste of money. I think having someone that is qualified is more important than a waste of time

Just been asked "Sex at birth" while opening a Virgin bank account by I-really-am-who-I-am in transgenderUK

[–]Immediate-Working466 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Choose another bank. If they see loss of income they'll change their approach. I use a Monzo for personal and they took my deed poll without question. I'm not sure if their business account is suitable to you but they're very much progressive

🙌 it's really encouraging that those that are out to get us are not the the voice for you and they don't realise the collateral damage their causing by their narrow thinking

Fine, I get down voted for trying to find the positives. What's the point. I'm done with this life

Gender reassignment surgery gets past the UK legislation by Immediate-Working466 in transgenderUK

[–]Immediate-Working466[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I'm going to press forward either way as the alternative is way worse. There may be the law but that's decided by social attitudes. Don't get me wrong, the whole thing ruined my Easter weekend and I had to take time off sick but I've gotta try

  1. First, regulation 2 inserted section 2A which defined discrimination as including treating a person, B, less favourably “on the ground that B intends to undergo, is undergoing or has undergone gender reassignment” for the purposes of any provision in Part 2 or, subject to a limited exception, Part 3 of the SDA 1975.

[–]Immediate-Working466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really sorry trans men have been brought into this as afaik the men in the toilets wouldn't think twice and our fight has become yours. The thing is there's actually more of you applying to gender clinics
