I saw my doctor just to get my prescription refilled. She usually turns the appointment into a follow up about my weight loss.

I lost a couple of pounds since I saw her in August, but I’ve kept off all the weight I’ve lost for 2 years.

She was talking about how I was pre dispositioned (whatever that means) and that she’s so scared I’m going to gain the weight back. I wasn’t excatly arguing with her but perhaps sticking up for myself. I said “ Ive kept it off for two years.” And then she said “but yeah you’ve lost weight before and gained it back.” And I said “but I’m off those meds. My weight gain was strictly a med issue.” And she made some other comments including asking me if I could control myself for the holiday season.

I try to just get in and out as fast as I can. I was literally just there for my prescription. I don’t understand why but I have to see her everytime I need my birth control refilled. I wish she could just call it in, but she can’t.

Is this weird? Should I just nod and smile when she says it? Making a point didn’t work.

My birth control is very important to me, and I’m worried another doctor won’t give it to me. She also doesn’t do an internal exam. I am terrified of an internal exam. I’ve never had one and I probably should since I’m 24, but I am scared.

So it’s best to just stay with her. But how should I deal with her comments besides proving her wrong?
