Thanks, fairywings.
> hi tamar, i'm glad you were able to get the courage to go to the gyn, what an incredibly stressful situation. you're right though, it's probably a good thing for gyn's to see how it is for someone who has past issues that affect an exam so much, and that they need to be extra sensitive all the time just in case.
Yeah, I think you’re right. They do need to be able to handle it. I got the impression that the doctor was a little surprised but she seemed to take it in her stride. She shook my hand at the end, which surprised me! Maybe she does that with everyone, but somehow I had the feeling it was a kind of gesture of support…
> i'm glad your dh went with you, and that you found some comfort in the gallery afterwards.
Yeah, the gallery was great. And my husband is great too!
Thanks again
Tamar
