The State of the Anna

[acm28]

Today I saw my doctor and (despite my fear of needles) had some blood drawn. It's a small victory, but still, I feel accomplished. Now I'm laying in bed trying to get warm and hoping I feel less shaken by tonight so I can go contra dancing!

I had an unpleasant experience at the doctor, which I want to vent about below. TW: trans*phobia

The hell, Dr Asshat? It's called the internet, do some basic research for yourself instead of asking your patient about her boyfriend.

Helpful hint: Do not refer to your trans* patients as if they are specimens you are observing in the wild. They are people. Describe them with the appropriate language.
