Doctors, referrals and a dizzy head x

    Ok, I've been given way too much information over the Internet recently and getting really daunted by it all. Sorting out work is enough stress without added confusion. I need some short simple advise as to what I am entitled to. I live in a small village, my surgery has 1 consulting room, they have been pretty clueless so far. I was refered to a pyshco-sexual specialist 6 weeks ago, having been told the appointment would take 2 weeks, clearly not!
    Anyone who hasn't seen my previous posts I'm full time living in role but not remotley passable (though completely adorable). I want to start HRT and blockers, and I want to start that today really! As far as I know the GP hasn't refered me to a GIC yet and I'm seeing that as a priority, to get me on a path to SRS. I also am looking for support from them with hair removal. I just don't know where I stand. I'm fully committed to living as a woman but am slipping back v into depression because of ' body issues'. I'm keeping strong but it's spinning my head out today. X

    Looking rubbish again! Though they have agreed to look into referring me directly to a GIC. I'm still waiting for the psyco-sexual consultant appointment they originally refered, told that would be two weeks, now on week five. They won't prescribe me HRT, as they don't know what to prescribe. Feeling like it's going.to.be a long time before I get any help.
    So I'm wondering, Could I.go and ask for a referral to address male hair issues. I am living as a woman and if a woman had this level of hair growth shed get help, so surley I sho I ld too. I'm just desperate to move forward. I've eliminated as much male crap from my life as is possible, I'm pretty much down to voice, body and experience. Getting frustrated that's for sure. Firey tantrum is brewing, I can feel it, lol Xxxxx

    ♥ being a bit of a moo paid off, Less Than 2 hrs after my appointment I get a phone call from the surgery to say they will refer me today to Northampton GIC, which they said has around a twelve week wait. From the original referral made by my GP to a pyshco-sexual consultant that will make 18 weeks. Does this mean I can push for HRT at the first appointment? ♥ Xxxx
