Obnoxious People in Positions that require Compassion...
So yesterday I had an appt with my OB/GYN...I was under the impression that this was strictly a verbal visit..and all about getting some answers to a lot of questions...I was relatively certain that I was mistakin' when Doc's nurse came into the room and took my blood pressure and weighed me(by the way does anyone else HATE the doctors scale?)and then said strip from the waist down.WHAT!!?!! The blood rushed from my face... WHAT?!I have to be NAKED to talk!!? I am a woman that needs days..even weeks to mentally prepare for these types of exams not to mention the fact that I had just "too" recently had one!! Needless to say Exam he did...and I had a wonderful captive audience I think the entire third floor of the hospital was in my Examination room (including Kruze who graciously hid behind the privacy curtain...Thank You). I will spare you the details mostly because I dread reliving the horror. I did get to "talk" eventually and the Doc answered all of my questions and for the most part gave me at least a minor sense of relief for the time being anyway. Apparently the words that the nurse felt was her duty to "spew forth" the week earlier while on the phone with me...words such as "Ovarian Cancer" and "Biopsy" and "Surgury" and "Benign" and "Malignant" were all horribly premature and not even within her right to discuss. Thanx Nurse Renee for giving me an entire week of sleepless nights,headaches, puking everything I ate and almost giving me an Alcer and a Brain Anurisium to boot!! WOW I do feel relief. This is what the Doc had to say...in my Layman terms...I have a bump on my Uterine wall that needs further investigation...I have an enlarged Ovary that needs regular supervision (due to my mothers history: Ovarian Cancer). I do not have Ovarian Cancer (Doc's exact words) they just need to keep an eye on it. I have to have another Ultra-sound on October 28 to have my bump and ovary re-evaluated at that time the doctor will determine if a biopsy and surgury are required. So there you have it...and I wish to God that Nurse Renee was reading my blog right now....WOMAN would ya for the love of god quit scarin' the begeebees out of poor defenseless people!! Just Keep Your-Big-Cigarette-Induced-Raspy-Voiced-Cake-Hole Shut!! Am I feelin' a touch bitter?....

No. I don't think you're bitter for feeling that way. Nurses should keep their BIG mouths shut when they haven't a clue what's going on!She just wanted to feel important for a mere second, obviously. Yoy should tell your Doc and maybe next time he will call with the news.
Remember, I luv ya and am praying for you. :)
Thank You Jane and thanx for the prayers too.Iluv you too Janesy and keep your eyes peeled girl I'm thinkin' our "church story" is beggin' to be told here on this blog and by the way I have an awesome pic that I took of you that I will be posting with the story...you look beautiful as always!!
Nurse Renee You need your Ass kicked and I'm just the one to do it. Did ya feel that, thats my size 8 squarely conecting with your trouble spot.
Luc, you have every right to be bitter however fleeting it may be since you are not capible of holding a grudge. I'm so releived that cancer is not part of the equation, ask the hub I have been sleepless right along with ya since you told me. I was so worried about you. Love you loads and couldn't bare for you to go through what mom went through.
I am glad to hear that things weren't as bad as the nurse told you. Would you like me to tell her a thing or two?!?! ;o) I'm feeling for you and even for Kruze...poor guy. Not a visit for him to go to the room with. Was it intern day at the office? I hate those days. Like when they ask you if you mind all these people standing around "observing" they would really take your answer of "YES" and ask everyone to leave. I think you have the right to be "bitter", but that's really not the word I'd use. You know where I'm at if you need me. Thinking of your lots and sending up tons of prayers!!
CALL ME! HAVE TRIED TO GET A HOLD OF YOU ALL MORNING IT JUST RINGS AND RINGS.
So glad my friend that things are not so bad! I was awfully worried!
Brief, but love you lots! Work calls in the AM and I will call you later this week!
Prayers were answered, and let see if they work on Nurse Reneee to develop a nasty baldness of the back of her head, and a 2 inch long chin hair! LOL
Best regards from NY! » »
