At your cervix!
7:33 p.m.
The spots on my back themselves did not ring any alarm bells, either for her or the doctor who came in at the end to examine them himself. He was concerned though that they cause me discomfort, in that they itch, and are constantly being irritated by my bra strap. So he suggested that I have day surgery to have them removed, and the clinic will call me to set that up. I was also given a referral to a dermatologist for some pigmented areas on my face and legs which, I am assured, are not a health problem in themselves but may grow and become rather unsightly. I understand that laser treatments can lighten them.
As for my own doctor, she has been on cong� m�dicale for over two years and the clinic doesn�t know when she will be returning. This is so strange, because when I saw her before Christmas, she spoke as though she were working every day, seeing patients, and I should just call and make an appointment. Perhaps her �holiday� is for psychological reasons?
In any case, I am apparently very healthy, my blood pressure is 110/70, which is perfect, my weight is satisfactory, the doctor didn�t feel a blood test was necessary since I don�t appear to be anemic (I think I�ve got that licked now anyway), and I can go my merry way until I get my letter from the government on my 50th birthday telling me to go have a mammogram. That I am definitely not looking forward to.
