Tested ? Part 2

::: I can only laugh at this point :::

I just listened to my voice mail message from last Friday. It wouldn't matter if I listened to it then because it said:


"Hi Nancy, this is Sue, the nurse for Dr. Va-jay-jay. We are closed now, but please return this call to our office on Monday. It isn't an emergency."


Remember I just went in for my annual and preached to all who read it to get your check-ups?

So I just called, I got the voice mail for the nurses. They return calls after hours. Now, what do you suppose they want? I only had one test done, ONE, you know the one where they are looking for cancer.

To be continued ... after they call me back.


*** Update***

Well crapola. I talked to the nurse.

I know from the past, they usually send an "all clear" letter in the mail. She said not to worry, there was something "just a little bit off" but nothing serious.

??? right ???... I never heard that result before. I get to go back in for another test.

"just a little bit off"

like coloring outside the lines
"a little bit off"
or
walking a tighrope 50 feet in the air "just a little bit off"

big difference, lol

Spectacular Speculum

Yep, this morning was my turn girlies! All is well and another year before I have to don my paper gown and put anklets in my purse because I hate the thought of riding that table cowboy with my feet in community stirrups. (Yeah, even though they have disposable covers on them.)

Since I have been 18 years old, I have gone for an annual check-up ... or should I say "check-down" without fail. I feel superstitious about it. Since I've never missed, I am afraid the first time I do will trigger some sort of va-jay-jay voodo that will cause me to have a negative outcome.

Actually I was curious to be weighed on a "doctors" scale. Don't we usually think since we're in a medical office, what ever it reads out must be gospel? I hopped on the scale and thought, well ... still is good, but I was hoping my scale was waaaaaaaay off. When my doctor was going over my chart, she looked at my weight and said "oh Nancy, our scale is wrong ... you have you subtract 3 (yes, she said SUBTRACT THREE) more pounds". In doing that, I realize my scale is correct, AND that I have lost 2 more pounds. This brings my total to 28 pounds.

Anyway, my post is really for a public service announcement.

Make that annual appointment and celebrate it as you do your birthday. Have cake and ice cream too if that is a motivator to go.
