I finally made an appointment with an OBGYN. I was supposed to go for my yearly in May, but put it off due to money. I feel ashamed to go to my old one b/c I owed them money, and I just added it to our bankruptcy. So now I'm going to one that's 25 mins away, but they are part of the medical group I use. The one thing that worries me is that, if I ever get pregnant, I'll have to make it to the hospital he's affiliated with, that's 35 mins away. Heh. I hope to talk to him about the difficulties I'm having with getting pregnant, and what he thinks about my psychiatrist's view of meds I should take. It's been over a year that I've been trying to get pregnant, and I'm up for some suggestions.

It's not until Oct 26th, so I have some time to ponder some things.

Well done for setting up the appointment - it was one of the hardest things I've had to do, but it wasn't all bad...
I hope things around the potential pregnancy work out

Hi, glad you made your appointment to, that was the first step and you did it! This is something I need to do also. Just keep on doing the next step, maybe make a list of things you would like to ask and tell your new doctor.

Good job.

It really sucks that I have to go every year, but I had precancerous cells removed, so now it's a yearly thing.
