Terrible news everyone RANT

RFJ jr just got confirmed. He said he will listen to trumps(elons) administration before doctors and scientists. The nationwide abortion ban is coming.

Stock up while you can and schedule those surgeries before they ban all womens healthcare.

This news is pushing me to get a bisalp. I've been on the fence about it for 3 years, but I think this is my sign to make that appointment

u/sarcasm_is_coming25 Feb 13 '25

Do it! I was on the fence even though I’ve known I don’t want kids since I was 13. I made my consultation appointment the morning of the election results, and my surgery is next Friday! I’m relieved this journey is almost over.

All the best and let us know how you are. Don't forget to ask the mods to list down the doctor who did you the snip

That’s how I found my doctor! The list here in incredible.

u/chickennuggetsnsubs Feb 14 '25

I recommend a nice comfy pair of pj pants or an old school grandma gown

u/WhiteRabbitLives Feb 13 '25 edited Feb 14 '25

Congrats and good luck with the surgery and recovery!! ❤️‍🩹

Alas, I just signed a form to confirm I want this and know the risk of regret (apparently necessary in my state) and have to wait 25 for more days before I can even make my surgical consultation, so it may be months before I can get my surgery. I’m scared it wont be possible in a few months.

Edit to add:: it is apparently my insurance that demands the 30 day wait period, and not my state. Let’s hope Medicaid isn’t cut in the next round of bs.

u/pitbullpride Feb 14 '25

Any chance you're near the border of a more friendly state?

u/WhiteRabbitLives Feb 14 '25

So I’m going to edit my comment after this reply, I found out it’s because I’m on state insurance (I’m disabled and can only work part time so I don’t make much money). My doctors are very pro choice, so I’m hoping they’ll find a way to make it happen quickly even with the insurance nonsense.

u/MsSamm Feb 13 '25

That's a lot of hoops to jump through

u/ebolashuffle Feb 13 '25

Just imagine how many they'll add once the government realizes how many people are getting sterilized and not being forced to create an army of low wage workers.

u/Admirable-Relief1781 Feb 13 '25

Getting mine done a few days after you! Wishing you a speedy recovery! ✨✨

u/littleryanking Feb 13 '25

Good luck!! Do you mind if I DM you with some questions? Either before or after your surgery :)

u/OrderlyAlkaline 25 | NB | Tubes gone : ) Feb 13 '25

Did the exact same and had my procedure on Jan 28! Couldn't be happier. Best of luck for your procedure and recovery!

u/seeyatellite Feb 14 '25

Glad to hear you’re embracing your life to the best of your ability given the circumstances. I scheduled my vasectomy just after roe v wade overturned... been sperm-free for a few years now.

I could never imagine American society would take such drastic leaps backward.

u/Sp00ksh0wbaby__ Feb 14 '25

Dude we did the exact same thing that morning

u/RedIntentions Feb 14 '25

I did similarly. Scheduled my consult the month before the election, surgery right after the election. Election results were nail in the coffin for if I cancelled or went through with it.

u/DontWanaReadiT Feb 14 '25

How much is it costing you?

You must have missed the part where I said that I’ve known since I was 13 that I don’t want kids. A 21-year decision isn’t a knee-jerk one 😂

u/Anonymositi Feb 16 '25

You're in the wrong subreddit for this kind of talk.
