Question for the ladies (no boys allowed) on the Peoria.com Forums - Page 2

It wasn’t a racial thing Yoda, it was a communication thing. I wouldn’t care one way or another what race she belonged to as long as I could understand her, but I thank you for projecting that judgment on me. Frankly, you may be right since she told me to come back after I went through menopause. I considered that my out, it’s been a year and pursuant to her advice.. I still don’t have to go see a doctor. Great Doctor.

WOAH!!! A cute Doctor? A female? As a preference I don’t want any girl around me if I’m being forced out of my clothing

Why is that just curious ? You prefer a male to watch ?

I guess I really don't care any more as long as the general criteria is met:
1) no pain
2) warm speculum
3) stirrup covers optional
4) fast

my old male dr never had a nurse in there while he did that .

i rele prefer a female over a male anymore . i tend to think they understand more .
i had a female dr over in pekin and i couldnt understand her at all . thats not fair to be put thru the diffculty of tryen to understand them . so C i know where ya commen from on that part .

MSGEM...

Ummm… Momma? Are you asking if I’m voyeuristic?

Actually, I’d prefer neither. But if I’m going to be fondled I’d rather it be male thank you very much. Over all, I don’t do well with doctors of any gender, race, religion or sexual orientation (just in case there are other equal rights groups overseeing this thread prepared to do battle with me). I do my best to avoid them at all costs and manage to weasel out of any medical procedures that require being touched for as long as I absolutely can. I make it in once or twice a decade whether I need it or not though.

I know I broke the rules (no boys allowed)

When I had to have my prostate exam. I picked this cute little girl doctor, as uncomfortable as it was, but my sole motivation was. SMALL FINGERS

It depends upon the person. I really liked my previous ob/gyn who was a female. But she left... and I was really upset when she did. I do have a female now, and I'm just not as comfortable with her as I was with the previous one. She's okay, but she's not GREAT.

My first ob/gyn was a guy and he was great also. Very sweet and kind.

The worst smear I've ever had was from a woman, Nurse Practitioner. So I really know the sex of the doc doesn't matter to me.

Not getting into any details, but my pap smears are more difficult than most. My doc has a note that is taped to my file and I am to remind her, (or anyone else who is attempting to do a female exam) to remember to the read the note first. :-|

Christi, don't you know how important it is to have Pap Smear yearly? Not decades!

What medical procedures are there that don't require being touched? Do you go to a psychic doctor?

It’s a bad thing for me to deal with doctors under any circumstances so if I could get one on a psychi basis I'd probably go for it. But they’ve been saying I’m pre-cancerous for 30 years now and I’ve survived this long. I know I’m supposed to go but it takes me 5 – 10 years to build up the courage.

"Pre-cancerous? Ooooh, Christi! All the more reason for you to go each year!

I had pre-cancerous also and used to have to go every 6 months for awhile, now I go EVERY SINGLE YEAR, I've stayed pre-cancerous and WANT to stay that way!!!!!!!!

That’s what they told me, however my grandfather ended up with cancer and they killed him in under a year. I’ve been pre-cancerous and I’m still kicking without going every year. Honestly, the amount of anxiety that would cause me just to go.. I think I’d rather kick off.
