Mountaindewed, I'm glad to read that you have some answer from your gynecologist as to what/why you've been experiencing. Having multiple options to choose between is lucky. Hopefully the one you choose will help completely and quickly. As for your discomfort at that doctor's office, have you ever asked if they could give you the last appointment of the day or the first? Then perhaps the waiting room would be empty, or near so. Do you think you will need to continue seeing a gynecologist forever? I'll assume you at least need not get mammograms anymore. Right? I am able to pick my own time/date for my gynecologist appointments. They offer an online scheduling portal. I just go to that website, select my doctor's name, enter a patient PIN they assigned me, then look for the available date/time I like, then book it.

I'm glad your gynecologist and their staff make you feel comfortable. I don't dislike my gynecologist, but his personality is almost exactly like Lurch's from The Adam's Family.
