catch me bringing a shiny red apple to my next doctor's appointment so he knows how much i hate him
#broke: giving an apple to your favourite teacher#woke: giving an apple to your GP#an apple a day keeps the doctor away#and by god i want him to stay away#....ok but for those of you who are interested: i have good news!#previous tags (and the occasional vent post) have mentioned my doctor's uhh medical negligence when it comes to my probably-endometriosis#which has been extremely frustrating to the point where i've started a paper trail just in case - idk. just to have a record#but the chronic pelvic pain i've got going on wound up getting me to take advantage of my on-campus medical facilities#okay well. by this i mean it sent me to the hospital#but WHATEVER my point is#i got to see an actually competent doctor last night! who gave me a prescription for birth control meds that aren't super off-brand!#and it didn't even take her three months to get around to it!#IMAGINE.#she also laid out all my options re: birth control and pain management and RECOMMENDED i get an iud#of her OWN ACCORD#instead of dismissing it when i brought it up as a possibility!!#now it's uh fairly likely that at this point i have a not-insignificant amount of scarring that's causing my chronic pain#but if that doesn't go away after my insides have had a chance to heal without being forced to spontaneously combust every month#she said i should see a gynecologist (and my dad for all his - anyway - bullied my doctor into getting me a referral for that already)#so. i'm still in a fair amount of pain this morning (and still not on my period so it's distressing bc. why) but#things are looking up#or at least not at a standstill anymore#doctors#apples#food mention#linden's originals#linden in the tags
