most upsetting gynecological visit ever!
I had a bad day. i only update when i have bad days. i actually have a lot of good days, but that's pretty boring to type about.
so yesterday, i went for my annual exam at planned parenthood. i go there because i always feel welcome and it's not all white and creepy like normal lady-doctors offices. so i go. i'm sitting in the room and they tell you to take off your clothes and wrap yourself in these strategically places pieces of paper and lay there. i did NOT have my paper on, because it was very confusing, when this doctor lady came in. i said "just a second!!!" and there she was. so that threw me off.
then she was giving me my breast exam when she yells "WHAT IS THIS!!!?" see i have this little lump under my arm that i've had for like, ever, and every time i go to the doctor they tell me it's nothing. i think i first noticed it when i was 16, but im 24 now and it's the same little lump. so i tell her all of that and that every doctor says it's nothing, and she gets me all freakin worried about it. she tells me that she's gonna refer me to another doctor because i should have had it diagnosed and she keeps looking at me like she's mortified. i wanted to cry so much! and i hadn't even gotten to the "uncomfortable" part of the exam.
so then she tells me that she doesnt know if i should have children because my "blood pressure is normal now but it could go up if i got pregnant." I DONT WANT TO GET PREGNANT! why the hell would i
be here? so i get all upset about that. then i have my real exam. and it was painful! it's normally not that painful! and normally they try to keep you covered so you're not all naked and violated on the table. then she asks me if i'm having orgasms regularly. WHAT? it was so weird. she also told me that she was a pediatric nurse practitioner. i've never been so uncomfortable. she also didnt know which birth control pills to switch me to. she had to "look it up in the manual."
should you be poking 'round my body if you don't even know what pills to prescribe?
i really never ever want to go to the doctor again, which is sad because you should want to go to keep yourself healthy and stuff.
oh and my car battery sprung a leak this weekend. what a bitch! you dont realize how powerful those things are. there was acid all over and i had to neutralize it and put in a new battery. the acid ate through the cables too though, so i figured out a way to get it to start, then drove it to the mechanic. the cable was being replaced today. i want one of those small scions. not the big boxy ones, but the ones that look like minicoopers.
labor day weekend sucks.
