Thank you!
I am in the process of seeing a new gynecologist but I do have to see this one for the time being. I will be seeing a new one in June or July but I need to try and get my BC replaced by April.
The one I am seeing is supposed to be really good so I am hoping for the best.
It is kind of ironic because I advocate for people as part of my job but I struggle with it a bit when it comes to me especially when it has to do with weight related stuff. That probably has to do with insecurities and the fact that weight issues tie in to my eating disorder and I do not feel comfortable explaining that to doctors who do not seem supportive.
I wish I was comfortable enough to ask one of my friends to go with me to my gynecologist because I think that'd help me to advocate.
