way too many previous appointments to justify not being on HRT already: check
letter full of complaints mirroring mine to a T from the country's biggest LGBT advocacy organization: check
credible threat of self medication: check
backup plan in case I get denied anyway: check
fucks given: completely gone

@kit yeah, like
the only outcomes of this next appointment are going to be self-medication or going through things the official way, like hell am I not going to go on HRT after this lmao

update: fortunately didn't need to pull out the big guns to push things in a more favorable direction, one last appointment before HRT most likely happens
