I went for my test yesterday and it couldn’t be completed.  I had called the dr. beforehand asking for medication to calm my nerves and the receptionist told me she would call me back.  The receptionist also told me that it "wasn’t a painful procedure" and that "I could stand it."  I told her how it was an issue for me, but I knew everyone who had the power to help me had their mind made up otherwise.  My gyno never called and I went in after medicating myself with an overdose of Tylenol 3 with codeine, and was still very anxious to say the least.  I was crying hysterically and couldn’t stand the pain and I just sat in a pool of my blood.  She never ended up getting the catheter in me to do the test, and just told me that "everything was ok anyway."  Suddenly these fibroid tumors meant nothing, and all of these excess periods.  She just didn’t want to deal with it.  I’m sick of doctors not listening and I’m sick of always hemoraging.  I’m still bleeding today from that experience, and it wasn’t even completed.  I’m sick with myself for not being able to handle the pain like a real woman, sick with not being able to take control of health and have my doctor listen to me, and sick of not having any definite answers to all of my health concerns.  I’m 25 but feel like I’m 80.  I can’t take the strain of all of this and its just effecting my life too much.
