gyno.

[Jessi!]

Okay.. yeah. So pretty much I get frikken HORRIBLE cramps.. I take prescription meds from the doctor for it.. and even with them the cramps are terrible.. I just don't throw up from the cramps if I take the meds.. but it's still terrible.. I get REALLY bad pain.. and my period lasts the whole 7 days.. then stops for 1 day.. then the 9th day it comes back with a day of unbearable cramps.. then it's over.. Anyway, I might have to go on birth control for it... Peggy (my doctor) said that she thinks it's in my best interest.. But ick.. this means.. gynocologist.. and uhhhh I don't want that.. but I know I need to be checked anyway.. It's just one of those weird situations.. and I feel REALLY awkward.. I don't want anyone looking at me down there lol.. I just ickk.. I'm gunna be soo uncomfortable.. Have any of you gone through this?


lol, perfectly put by my best friend Meg: "Those are the only stirrups I HATE.."

I've never been to the gyno Jessi, but just relax when you get in there. Think about it this way: the more tense you are, the more it's going to hurt. So high-tail it down to Starbucks, get yourself a venti frappauchino, and be in heaven for 30 minutes before you have to go

^^^^^^^^^^^@@@@@@@@ RANDOM STORY!!! @@@@@@@@^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hahahahah, when my grandpa was in the hospital, I went down to see him one Sunday with my mom. The hospital is downtown, where you have to pay those little toll things to park, but since it was Sunday, they were free (yeah, I didn't know they were free on Sunday's either).
Anyways, we parked on the street infront of some little stores. When we were walking back, I was looking at the stores, and low and behold there was a gyno office. I kinda look in, because there's this Chineese guy using a freaking rolling pin on the desk! I'm like huh? I take a step back and stare at the sign:
*Gynecologist's [[[[]]] Jin Hoo's Authentic Chineese food*

So, Jessi, I doubt you'll end up at a place like that. Yes, there IS a light at the end of the tunnel
Good luck

I have... and it is just embarassing to have your legs up like that and doctor looking... 'cause ya' young they will be super, super nice too you.... I went in the room and put on your gown thing... i left my t-shirt on....then you hop up on the table and then swing around and put feet in the stirrups and slid down so your butt is closer to the doctor....my legs kept shaking and rattling the metall.........so embarrassing! Then the nurse told me this tip... Okay take a three deep breaths...in your belly and sorta push down like you are having a crap and it some how like loossens the muscles. They will use the smallest of everything and like I NEVER NEVER knew IT HAPPENED. It was really fast and because they are gyno's they do this exam like a million zillion times a day...they are REALLY good at it. It is very nerve racking. I got mine done like a year ago for heavy periods... all worked out. And my boobs didn't get any bigger!!! I gained like ten pounds thou.... It is really stupid to say...but really if you relax and breath deeply it is MUCH easier. Trust me. I had to get my second one again here last fall and the college doctor was really good too...and iwas jsut as nervous. good luck. it is like over in a second...

[Jenni]

ok a couple of my friends are on the pill for like cramps... heavy period,.... irregular all that stuff.. so some lost weight some gained, some got bigger boobs, some got smaller boobs.. so it really varies.. iu haven't had to yet.. heck of nervous about it though!!!!

love the quote though jess
