Doctors tomorrow :/

My drs appt was originally on friday, but got moved to tomorrow because my dr is pregnant and has her appt on friday.
I'm really nervous. I just don't want anyone touching me downstairs after what happened. I haven't even had sex with my boyfriend yet!
I didn't tell the receptionist about what happened. I just said I needed a pap. So I was going to tell the nurse (who is awesome) that I want an std test and such.
I'm scared. More than normal (lets face it, no female wants to get them done).
Any advice?

Hey there,
That must be very nerve wracking. Try not to get too worked up about it, I know it's hard when you are dreading something but I probably won't be as bad as you are imagining
I would tell the nurse who does the tests of your anxiety and trepidation about the procedure, just be honest (as much as you feel comfortable) and hopefully she will be gentle and supportive.
It will be ok
Take care

I'm trying not to think about it. But now I can't sleep. ugh.
The nurse is so awesome, we get along great, and we always complain about our jobs together lol.
I just don't know how to say why I would want a STD test, I don't want to be like "Well, I went to a party and the next morning a guy forced me to have sex with him"
I tend to stumble over my words when I get nervous.

Trying not to think about it is good Shelbi.
Perhaps you could write her a note so you don't have to say it aloud.
Sorry it's so hard and you can't sleep. Can you do something relaxing?

I finally fell asleep for good a 4:30 this morning :( I had to get up by 7:40 to get ready for work...and the lady I went to didn't even need me! So I got cut out of an hour of work. ugh.
Last night I made my neighbor come out and talk/smoke with me. We were out there until nearly 1! So that helped to talk about something else.
But now, I only ahve 15 minutes before I ahve to leave...ugh I ahven't even had my coffee yet.
This day isn't going as well as I wanted it to.

I made it without a panic attack. I almost froze to death because the drs office was like 20*!
But I told her what happened (vaigely) and she ordered all the tests and I should know by friday. So *fingers crossed* everything comes back okay!

Hey there. Well done on getting the tests done and for being brave. That must have taken a lot.
I'm guessing she was gentle and supportive?
I hope the tests come back clear too.

My dr has always been really nice and sweet. She was really supportive and ran every test she could think of lol. I hopefully get the results tomorrow. Makes me nervous :/
I'm really worried about being pregnant. Because I have a boyfriend (and we obviously have sex occasionally) and i wouldn't know whoes it was. And I don't want everyone in my family to know what happened. I'm not really for abortions but idk what to do if I was. Hopefully, that it wont happen and everything will be okay.
