OMG - Good for you! YOU were the professional! My dad would have called her a shoemaker, no offense to shoemakers! (It was just an expression he used for incompetence in professionals, it was cute the way he did.) You are certainly no shrinking violet, and that person was being way judgmental. One thing to say that was a long time, maybe you need to take a break - but a) that's for your gyno to say, and b) the bit about "that's just an excuse"? - WAY hostile! How did you not slap her?!
