HoHum

I feel so silly after going to the doctor's office. What I'm doing for my knee is exactly what he wants me to do. I got a prescription for another ailment. I admitted that I put off going to him for different things. He then looked at my file and said "you are over due for a pap test, mammogram, and you are 50 (actually I'm a couple years over 50), so you need your first colonoscopy. Also we need to check your cholesterol and do a glucose test to check for diabetes." Diabetes runs in my family. And I'm borderline as it is. It's been a few years since I was last checked for that. Anyway, I said blood tests yep...fine....next Monday, but the rest....well..lets put that off until I get my other stuff taken care of...the stuff I was there for in the first place. He said okay. Here he was ready to set up appointments for all that other stuff for me. UGH UGH UGH. How much torture do I NEED? Spread my legs in stirrups so he can poke around in my nether region....then get my boobs mashed (which aint that bad), and then have a scope stuck up my butt? Men don't go through NEAR as much as us women. I think MEN invented all these torturous things! Getting old sure does suck. Did I say that in the other post? Well.... I mean it....dammit!
