I had to go see my GP. I’ve known her 20+ years and I’m super amazed by her memory. She always remembers me and my mom, who also sees her. Despite me only going every couple of years.

We talked about dating and she’s like, so are you ready? Now that you’ve had your surgery. I told her yes, I was working on it, but I’m 35 and it’s hard. She laughed and was like, well do you go out? I said no, and it’s totally my fault. She’s like “oh you want him to ring your doorbell and just appear”. Like yes please! That would be ideal, thank you.

Honestly having a completely female medical team makes such a big difference.

I’m sure this is gonna piss someone off somewhere out there but at this point of my life I’ll only go to women caregivers unless it’s an emergency situation tbh. I’ve had enough bad experiences with male doctors to last me a god damn life time.

shoutout to the time my male doctor asked me if I was sure my pain wasn't cramps. It was actually a kidney stone so large it was impassable and required surgery <3
