They were concerned because there's a history of breast cancer in my family and that I was a smoker but didn't say anything about my diabetes.
What did they say to you??

They misunderstood some of my medical history... and so did I.
When I was little, I thought my mom had a stroke. She actually just had some really bad fainting spells. But I remember my dad sitting over her telling her that she had a stroke. So what did I put on my med history... that my mom had a stroke. I tried to clear it up later saying I had misunderstood my mom but they weren't having it.
I also mentioned something about high cholestoral... which I don't have... it was just elevated slightly from my last testing.
They said if they had my endocronologist clear everything up I could go on the pill. But the whole point of me going to PP in the first place was to not go to Kaiser because then my parents would know and they didn't at the time.
It was a big mess so I just went on depo. I like not having periods at all... quite convinient. But the weight gain hasn't been worth it.
