Intriguing Mri results, and more medical dishonesty

Let's see, the synopsis. I'll type in the full text of my report(s) later
when I have more time. I also got a cd with the images, so I can share
it with knowledgable people everywhere

As said before, my upper abdomen is fine.
My pelvic area is now subject to two seperate dissenting reports.

Report 1 was done without preconceptions;;
They found two small ovaries and a uterus, normal female pelvic
structure and muscle structure, labia majora, and ambigous genitalia.
Only minor amounts of adenopathy. No explanation for pain and
bleeding, except that that's what most women have to put up with,
and I'm just being a wimp. (maybe I am ...)

After that, my gp called up radiology and told them that that
report couldn't possibly be true, because I'm (obviously?) a trans,
at least in my gp's eyes.
So a second radiologist came up with a second report saying they
found nothing out of the ordinary for a male, and that the years
of pain and bleeding I've been going through are a lie, because
"We See Nothing ... Nothing"

As my gp explained today, it now doesn't matter what the truth turns
out to be, because even if a true diagnosis goes my way, my health
insurance can always point to the second dissenting report and deny
coverage for treatment.

So close and yet so much bullshit. Bleh.
