29year000 mile maintenance
Nov. 22nd, 2004 08:18 pmWow. I had a totally pleasant doctor experience. Color me pleased.
In drastic opposition to my last doctor, this one did not roll her eyes at me when I knew medical facts. Also, she did not assume I was having sex with boys. Also, she asked my Jennifer's name, and asked if we were planning to get married, and asked if I wanted her to sneak the pre-marriage blood test into my physical so insurance would pay for it. (Unfortunately I didn't take care of the last item, since I'm not sure when we're officially tying the knot and the blood test's only good for a month. Cause, you know, after that you might GO GET SYPHILLIS!) I have now been poked, looked at, and lubed up for a year. I have also had blood drawn for cholesterol and diabetes check (required by doctor), to check for PCOS (requested by me), and to prove immunization for MMR (required by job). When I get my results I'm going to make arrangements to begin the immunization series for HepA and HepB. Shots-a-plenty!
I think the pinnacle of irony, though, was that I was early for my appointment, so I decided to sit and read more of Fast Food Nation. In a McDonald's. HA!
This space intentionally left blank. Maybe next time it will be filled with brilliant observations and flowery prose.
