If I can get him to prescribe the CAC test, I wouldn't have to pay for it. Honestly, I have no issue doing more testing. Last time I did one was 5 years ago. It'd be interesting to have that data and see how it changes over time.

What happens in Canada if you have a serious issue and the doctor won’t prescribe it? You just die?
Drs so prescribe suicide here lol.
Honestly, I'm not sure. The rules are weird here. Preventive tests have to be paid out of pocked.
If I want to get my testosterone levels checked for future reference, I need to pay for it. If I believe I'm trans, they'll take an affirmative care approach, and provide me with hormones.
It's kind of a mess. Some of it depends on your doctor.
