Menopausal Bi-Polar Witch Babbling

Wednesday, October 13, 2004

Today is pap-smear day, such fun! I like my Doctor, but feet in the stirrups has got to be the most undignified position to be in. Not to mention that it tends to make me feel very vulnerable, a feeling I don't particularly like. I thank the Goddess that my Doc uses a plastic speculum (sp?) and warms it. I will also get my forms so that I can make my appointment to get squished. I go to the Veterans Administration Hospital in North Chicago for my medical, and while they have vastly improved the services for women veterans over the 18 years that I have been going there, they contract out the mamograms to Condell Hospital in Libertyville. I get financial paperwork from the Womens Wellness Clinic at the VA, call Condell and make my appointment, then call the VA and let them know the date and time of my appointment. Then I show up on the appointed day, give them the paperwork, wait, get squished, wait, go home. I don't know what sadist invented this procedure, but it had to be a man! No woman in her right mind would come up with a device that turns a breast into a pancake while trying to shove your arm pit up to your shoulder. I think that the inventor of this machine should be sentenced to have the exam 3 times a day, everyday, for the rest of their life.
