scared about appt tomorrow
| Tue, 10-18-2005 - 9:07pm |
well, tomorrow i go for my gyn appointment. the last time i had one done (almost 2 years ago) the pap came back with "something" on it. they had to do an in-office procedure (quite painful) and that came back negative. all was good. i was to go back in 6 months, well insurance wouldn't pay for it. then i had the scare back in the spring when i found a lump, but that turned out negative. now i have finally gotten around to making my appointment and it's tomorrow. i'm scared that something "new" will pop up on the test.
i've given a run-down of the cancer in my family and that's why i'm so scared. so if you pray, please say a prayer for me that it all works out. thanks for listening.

Traci,
You've got 'em Sweetie!
God could not be everywhere, so
Saying a prayer for you Traci. Coincidentally, over the summer I got an abnormal pap also and I was in such a bad state that I said "#%&* it. If I have cancer, so be it" and I never went for a follow up. Now that I'm pulling myself together, I have an appointment for that in-office procedure you posted about. The nurse told me to take a little pain reliever before I go in cause it might be "uncomfortable." Thanks for giving me the truth, I'll be prepared!!!!
I'll say a prayer that all turns out okay for you, but I know every time I take my DS8 for a doctor's appointment of any kind, I hold my breathe, pray for the best but expect the worst (he has a progressive nuerological disease and is already 100% physically handicapped).
I saw your response to my post yesterday about taking a spiritual approach to bipolar disorder. Frankly, I doubt I will ever be without meds, no matter how spiritual I become (I'm pretty darned spiritual right now!). This disease is a chemical imbalance and no amount of meditation or exercise is going to regulate it. I'm staying on the meds, probably for life, but they don't always help me feel 100% balanced. I've been working out for years and years, and can only guess that all the exercise and meditation is what keeps me from jumping off the tallest building in town. If your just starting exercise, accupuncture, whatever, try to stick with it. I'm a firm believer that the meds in and of themselves aren't going to help us actually live a "good" life, they just make us more functional.
Sending prayers, and keep us posted on your appt. Love, Mo.
thank you all for your prayers and positive thoughts.......keep 'em coming!
i learned today that it will be 2 friggin weeks before i get the results! i don't know, maybe it's just me, but if it were my patient and she had had an abnormal pap before, i'd try to expedite things 'cause with this type of thing every second counts. omg!
gyn did say that everything "looks and feels" good, so i'm taking that for somewhat of a good thing, but won't be able to relax until i get the results of the pap. i so hate this! anyway, just wanted to give you an update.
love & hugs,
traci
