Since our move here in June of last year I had yet to find a Family Doctor to tend our miscellaneous aging medical issues. Well I finally stopped putting it off and made an appointment.
Tuesday was my day and it was actually kinda funny. Since I needed a complete physical and Pap I scheduled to have them both done at the same time - I mean why make two trips.
The Doc came in apologizing for having to 'meet' under these circumstances -- you know the Pap exam. I had to laugh because if you remember back in the summer I had a hard time finding a dentist and commented then that a GYN Doc would be easier for me to locate. I told this guy that and he laughed and agreed that as a new resident himself it was hard to find a dentist.
Do you want to know what was the worst part of the whole visit... stepping up on that scale! Uuuugh... no that was me not the scale... I didn't like what it said - expected it - but didn't like it one little bit!
Anyway... I've got a fist full of tests to schedule to figure out just where I am in this falling apart aging process. Blood work, Mammo, bone density and finally a stress test so that I can get off my hiney and focus on some serious exercise to take some of this weight off.

Yuck. I have to find one too and get that taken care of. Not my idea of a fun day.
I have been working through the same slow process too. Doc visits, test, blood work...yuck!
I'm rooting for you on this weight loss trip. You can do it. I did.
