I just got back from seeing The Specialist.  I have to see her annually to make sure I'm not going to explode.  At least, that was the initial story....

We've both generally seen this as kind of pointless, since Dr K my GP is really good on trans matters.  Today The Specialist surveys me and asks, "Why are you still coming to see me?"

Me:  Er, because I have to see you once a year and Dr K tells me to.
TS:  Yes, but I've reread the rules and I don't think it's necessary now.
Me:  That would be good.  Not that I'm saying I never want to see you again....
TS: [dramatically]  I am so offended.
[Later]  I mean this in the nicest way, but I hope I never see you again.  So, go forth!

The real gist of all this is that so long as she's happy with what Dr K is doing, she sees no reason for me to see her.  She did mention she knows of another doctor who hands out T but does not monitor his trans patients at all so she continues to haul them in once a year and make them have a blood test.

We parted with mutual expressions of esteem and a sincere wish never to set eyes upon the other ever again.  If we do, it would mean there's a problem!
