I have been going to the Charing Cross Hospital,in order to have Gender Reassignment in the last year,& today was the day I got my test results.
I am not happy,they say due to my Family History,they are not putting me forward for the operation in 2 years have removed me from the list & sending a letter to my GP,stopping my Female Hormone Medications.
I have discussed my situation with a fellow post op TS,& she said to me that I should go the Private Route,but this will cost me over £30K.
Hope the Lotto coughs up soon.
Seems It will be sometime before I can afford this,so for now I am just plain old me.
I`m not a Happy Bunny at the moment so if I bite your head off in chat, I apologise now, Fooking Doctors/Psychiatrists,playing with peeps minds.
Oh Debs hun. That aint good news at all. Big hugs to you though.
Bloody doctors sometimes eh but like my mum always said, where there's a will there's a way and if you want something badly enough you will always find a way to get it. So either keep buying those lottery tickets or go suck up to the bank manager for a loan lol.
I wish you loads and loads of luck. And the same little ol' you is fine with me anyway! xxxx
ah that really sucks =/ I wish you luck in your next steps.

Can you ask them for a 2nd opinion? can you appeal against their decision?
If so go for it, you have nothing to loose.
Can you get a case out in your favour about your family history?
Sarah Mal, I have been chatting to several T Girls I know,and they say thats if highly unlikely I will ever get the OP on the NHS.
As I said to others I might have to go the Private route but its Expensive,so I`ll have to see about it in the future.
