The relief an appointment can bring...
Well i had a docs appointment today about long cycles, odd bleeding and to be honest a rather long list of ailments (sp?) was expecting to be sent 4 more bloods or told to wait but she's referred me directly to Gynecology for further tests and hopefully answers!!!!
Even have my appointment already of the 15th july thanks to the new online booking sytem!!!!
So in 3 weeks ladies someone will be looking at my lady garden!!!
woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was wondering how you got on - had no time today to send you a message on facebook as I was in stoopid meetings all day.

I must admit i feel so much happier now things are moving but i know i'm really lucky that my doc is really understanding!!!
They won't do a smear??? I had my first one at about 21. Have they changed the min age now? xx
i had a smear when i was 20 but i think they changed it shortly after. i guess i'll have one when i turn 25 in a few months.

I had my swear after i had eldest lo...and i was 21, the doctor said as i had given birth i would need one!?! I expect theres different rules in different areas....although i will continue to hound you until u reach 25
So you're hearing it from one who knows how important they are !!
I do think it is a recent change though as I sort of remember reading something about it in the press with a lot of people not being happy.

I had my first smear at 19 :evil:
As for the smear thing u should have heard the doc when i asked she was saying that i couldn't have it till 25 as the age has been put up as previous they were testing from sexually active and were getting too many abnormal results that turned to be nothing so they changed the age apparently cancer doesn't normally show until 30's!!! Had to laugh at that cause SIL had cervical cancer in her late teens/early 20's so apparently not! Even said would i not need one as i've already had a baby and she said no, then told me not to worry u wont miss out they'll 'call me up'!!!!! This was all followed with the gyne consultant will probably do 1 anyway with the test so.............NO hounding me jules and kim!!!!
*lilac shivers at the thought of jules and kim on her back for 2yrs!!!*

First internal exam I had was unexpected and I was wearing a frilly thong. I felt like a right hussy! Since then I always wear proper knickers - not bridget jones style but something that I hope says 'sensible person who needs to be taken seriously'!!!
Honestly, the things I worry about. Am going to be a raving mess by the time I actually have a baby!
what type of knickers should i wear to say.. i'm a sensible person that doesn't want you to poke around too much down there but if u have to be gentle and quick?!!

I don't own any white knickers though so that decided the colour for me...!!!
