Ok, let me just spit out the horrifying-but-true statement so nobody's surprised.....no, I've never been to "that" doctor yet. Yeah, I know, it's terrible, but I'm scared, I can't help it. I had a physical last week and when my (male) doctor found out, he immediately told me he was making my appointment for me, he's not even leaving it up to me.

I know he's right, I'm getting used to the idea that I just have to.
But I'm very uncomfortable with the fact that he's setting me up with a male doctor, even if that's the best option for me (he's recommending me for a particular reason and his friend's a specialist). I don't want a man, I don't even like having a male physician, but he's growing on me. I'm not happy AT ALL about having a guy poking around down there, but hey, a specialist is what I need. It's not freaking me out so much anymore, but I do miss my female physician. After the appointment, I'll revive this thread and tell you how it goes...
