i'm not sick...

I don't know why I get so nervous about my regular physical check up each year. The most painful part of the whole experience is the blood taking part. Stupid needles. It was a little embarrassing leaving a cup of pee in the bathroom, but I don't expect anyone who works in a doctor's office thinks much of it. The steth was not too cold. The doctors hands were gentle. His questions weren't demeaning. He had good news all the way around. He did refer me to a physical therapist after I told him I'd been waking up lately to a stiff neck and headaches. A few of those sessions and I'd be as good as a ?? year old can be.

Maybe seeing a new doctor makes me nervous. I've tried a couple of others in the last couple of years, but didn't feel very comfortable with them. Dr. Nesbitt came highly recommended, and my insurance lists him as one of their providers. I was in business. He made me feel at ease and now I think I've found my doctor. If I ever get sick I'll be ready.
