    I’ve been waiting weeks for blood test results so I can get started on hrt. They said some of my results were above normal ranges so a dr was going to call me. So I’m freaking out that I’m sick or something and they’ll say I can’t start hormones.

    Well it turns out that the nice trans man who did my blood test wow my gender as woman, without making a note that I’m amab and I havent started hrt. So the issue was that the reference levels for my tests were set to cis woman.

    So a doctor phones me up and tells me they’re are some worrying numbers on the test results. Then he says “says here your testosterone levels are very very high”.

    I’m like “yes I know, that’s the entire fucking problem!”

    We laughed about it when we cleared up the misunderstanding but I still don’t have my fucking results so I can’t send them to imago and get on hrt. UK loves to keep you waiting.
