Sorry if it was a bad experience for you, Sugahorse. I have vaginal pain and exams are painful for me, but I finally found a doctor who's referred me to a specialist, so I'm very glad I didn't give up. But my point is, I've had appointments that weren't comfortable, and other ones that were okay, so try not to fear going again. Your health is important, and you can try a different doctor next time, if you think that would help.
