Tomorrow I have an appointment to see a doctor for the first time in 5 years. I hope I'm not riddled with cancer. I hope I can get answers to my questions.
I started my period 3 days early and I have had the worst hormonal RAAAAGE. Everything and everyone pissed me off yesterday.
BBE: I didnt have health insurance for the last 5 years. I was a temp for 3 years which offered no benefits and my last job, if anyone remembers, laid me off 2 weeks before my benefits came due because they couldn't afford to keep me.
Bowies : No, I've had my yearly paps free through PP thanks to my CA health access card through school. ETA- It was always an NP I saw and it was only a pap/exam, which is why I didn't count it as a doctor appt.
Thankfully I haven't NEEDED to go to a doctor in the last 5 years because I'm generally healthy... but for all I know I could be rotting away inside. But I couldn't really do anything about it without insurance *shrug*

Okay I withdraw judgment since you were going to PP and getting paps. Glad you can go to the "real" doctor and I'm sure that your lady parts don't resemble an old jack o' lantern at all. At all.
Pretty sure I don't have jackolantern-itis. The doctor was really nice; got a TDAP booster and some blood drawn with a follow up to come soon, and a couple of prescriptions. All in all not terrible.
ETA: fuck my arm hurts. Shot and blood draw in same arm = ow.
1 can crushed pineapple, drained 2 de-seeded and finely diced jalapenos 1/2 finely diced red onion 1 handful rough chopped cilantro (or however much you like, I like a lot) Juice from 1 lime salt to taste
