daily reminder that lying to your doctor is good and cool actually

Reposted from ChiTheMonkey is not really a good target for bullying 😜

I would like to take a moment to thank @katie.bzky.team for her guidance in finessing my endocrinologist.

I came out of my appointment today with all my primary goals accomplished, and the majority of my secondary.

please tell me all the ways i should finesse my doctors

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

depends on the goal

ubergreen.bsky.social•4 days ago

let's say my goal is something along the lines of christina gigahondricks

chithemonkey.bsky.social•4 days ago

One thing that has worked well for me is to always go in asking for more than you expect to get, but always have your priorities in mind.

Had multiple times where I traded-lower-priority goals (that were offered easily) for high-priority goals I wanted more (that they were hesitant on)

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

remember when people called me a transmedicalist. lmfao

maysuser.name•4 days ago

transmedicalism is when you think that people should take hormones

velvette.bsky.social•4 days ago

god I hate how much people have warped the meaning of some of these words, it's not "meaning evolving with time" it's just a whole other sentence...

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

"so you hate waffles" ass mfers

thegreatbarbossa.bsky.social•3 days ago

I glazed my doctor before in your replies but I'll do it again real quick cause today he literally let me do my first e shot under his supervision to make sure I'm doing my intramuscular injections right.
didn't ask any questions about where I got it, even tho you can't buy injections in austria.

katie.bzky.team•3 days ago

super based

thegreatbarbossa.bsky.social•3 days ago

he even gave me a bunch of his disposable needles for free afterwards.

bearek.bsky.social•3 days ago

Quick question, can you buy them elsewhere in the EU and bring them in and it's no biggie? Asking for a friend

thegreatbarbossa.bsky.social•3 days ago

idk how other countries are, but I was able to import my injections into austria with no issues.
it's not a controlled substance, pharmacies just aren't allowed to sell it.

god bless bathtub estrogen

bearek.bsky.social•3 days ago

thank you

thegreatbarbossa.bsky.social•3 days ago

npnp
sorry I can't provide any info on how other countries treat it.
I'm fairly certain estrogen is not a controlled substance anywhere in europe tho.

bearek.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm in the US so it really is for a friend who is considering an EU move in this case. But who knows when that knowledge might come in handy

jilliank.bsky.social•4 days ago

ACAB includes endos

juliagiantrat.bsky.social•3 days ago

its so based

maysuser.name•3 days ago

me smiling at my endo today and telling him "don't worry I'll take the progesterone orally"

katie.bzky.team•3 days ago

so wait did you bring up boofing or did he just start ranting about not shoving it up your ass

thegreatbarbossa.bsky.social•3 days ago

paid 200 bucks for a special consultation with a doctor in vienna once and when I told her prog didn't really do anything for me, she just went "oh I bet that's cause you shove it up your butt, right?"

katie.bzky.team•3 days ago

insane

thegreatbarbossa.bsky.social•3 days ago

she did at least double my e dosage, so that's something ig.

juliagiantrat.bsky.social•3 days ago

imagine that a cis man being weirdly obsessed with trans women's butts

maysuser.name•3 days ago

cis gay men are truly the weakest link

maysuser.name•3 days ago

HE JUST STARTED RANTING ABOUT IT OUT OF NOWHERE

katie.bzky.team•3 days ago

ACTUAL PSYCHOPATH

juliagiantrat.bsky.social•3 days ago

psycho

maysuser.name•3 days ago

not a single good endocrinologist out there i swear

stargays.bsky.social•3 days ago

lmao what the fuck!!!!!

maysuser.name•3 days ago

he filled the prescription and then was like "oh and i'm sure you've seen some stuff online but do not take it rectally, those girls don't know what they're talking about and it's way less effective"

stargays.bsky.social•3 days ago

we have so many posts worth of direct evidence that he's wrong

maysuser.name•3 days ago

what's crazy is literally 30 seconds before he was making some pretty good points about how hard it is to study the effects of prog and how anecdotal evidence means it's worth considering, right before dismissing the exact anecdotal evidence of the girls taking the thing

juliagiantrat.bsky.social•3 days ago

OH MY GOD SHE'S SO GODDAMN COOL

venomous.bsky.social•4 days ago

more convinced than ever nowadays that doctors are fascist nerds whose mouths need to be stuffed with gold before they can do anything worthwhile for you

ratgirl.monster•4 days ago

the only thing more satisfying than lying to your doctor is telling them you already started a thing, and giving them the opportunity to have a legit prescription

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

oh yes

ratgirl.monster•4 days ago

It was so much easier getting on t that way especially

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

WAIT IS THAT HOW I GET TGEL

ratgirl.monster•4 days ago

That's how I got mine!!! (and then proceeded to keep doing injections).

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

FURIOUSLY taking notes

nikkiwhat.bsky.social•4 days ago

I need tips, because aside from gaming my blood levels, I don't know what to do/how to approach because I have such a low tolerance for Doctors and their bullshit to us Trans folks doing HRT...so I just have resting bitch face to them all the time

davidmt.bsky.social•4 days ago

If you have to do work physicals (like to keep a Z-Card say) you have to lie to your doctors.

laapcoeng.tgirl.gay•4 days ago

Looking through these threads and writing down notes bc ya girl can't lie to save her life

Can't lie abt lab results bc they're done in-house but definitely can affect them by taking less beforehand

leftatlondon.com•4 days ago

Wait put me on?

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

the trick is to lie

leftatlondon.com•4 days ago

Like. About what for what purpose

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

estrogen levels. you can lie quite easily about blood labs and such

leftatlondon.com•4 days ago

This makes sense i gotchu

lucydango.bsky.social•4 days ago

1. Take bloods at trough
2. Say it was at peak
3. ???
4. You are now on an actual effective dose of estrogen, or at least not as comically low

kimberlydairine.bsky.social•4 days ago

like, "when was your last injection" and you say "three days ago" when it was a whole week

thegonzalez.bsky.social•4 days ago

Practice before you get there, too. Won't take much heavy lifting.

skeet.best•4 days ago

acab includes the doctor

paintedsky.ca•4 days ago

it would be nice if no doctors were assholes and no one had to lie. unfortunately...

maysuser.name•4 days ago

I am so excited to lie to my doctor tomorrow

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

have fun!!

maysuser.name•4 days ago

I've been skimming his notes from my last few visits just to make sure that my lies all match up on paper, it's such a fun time

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

she's so christine

maysuser.name•4 days ago

keeping your story straight is basic opsec!

maysuser.name•4 days ago

also i managed to get 6 months worth of refills without a visit and I absolutely do not remember what my lies were last time

andria-girl.bsky.social•4 days ago

any advice on getting ahold of your doctor's notes? are they required to give that stuff to you?

maysuser.name•4 days ago

mine are just available to me on my patient portal, so ymmv there

maysuser.name•4 days ago

if you don't have access to them I would write down whatever you said during your appointment afterwards, or record it if it's virtual

melhadf.shite.name•4 days ago

Either direct electronic access or a Subject Access Request for all information in your patient file, including notes.

digitalresistor.net•4 days ago

I got one of the good doctors that I don't need to lie to, because she listens to me and wants to have a two way dialogue.

I love my doctor so much because I have never once felt like I needed to lie about anything.

madelinebright.bsky.social•4 days ago

Katie out here helping people with endo visits, telling people not to smoke, generally taking care of fellow trans girlies.

Are you sure you're an editor and not a public health professional?

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

oh wonderful i can add public health professional to my list of titles

madisonwandering.com•4 days ago

Is there a general “ymmv but here’s some general lies to tell to make progress towards x, y, and z” list floating around out there? I’m kinda regretting moving off of PP because, while I was absolutely clueless about what to ask for and still am, at least there they just gave me what I wanted.

katie.bzky.team•4 days ago

when they ask for midpoint, do trough instead. consider underdosing the week prior as well. whatever you gotta do
