Well folks I finally went to get a gyno visit. I had to drive to the Bronx which took FOREVER from Long Island in the city traffic. The parking was terrible because of the side street parking rules for snow removal. I arrived at the doctor's office for my 9 am appointment and the facility was CLOSED *LOL* Anyway, it opened a few minutes late and the waiting room was well...freezing and extremely unappealing. The television was on and I found myself glancing at Entertainment Tv about the Oscars. I'm so glad I had earplugs with me because I tuned out the unimportant lives of hollystars and read a magazine. I was finally called half an hour later and I don't think the scale worked. I've never been five foot four in my life EVER and my weight was totally wrong because I had clothes and it said I was 155. My bathroom scale says the same thing and doctor scales are supposed to be more accurate. Either that, or my scale is really accurate as I did pay thirty dollars for it a long time ago.
I got my breasts examined and my pelvis felt for fibroids and other cysts. The good news is that I DO NOT have fibrocystic breasts, no breast lumps at all and I have no fibroids. HOWEVER, I was extremely upset that I could not get a pap smear which was the main reason I went to this doctor because I DID NOT HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE. I usually pay for myself and if I had the money then, she could have done it. I was just aggravated that I didn't ask about the pap smear on the phone because I was happy to be seeing a doctor. I paid one hundred dollars to see this person. She referred to a free clinic but I was so disgusted with everything I just said have them call me and I left. I should be thankful that I don't have anything wrong with my breasts and ovaries. I was just made painfully aware that my financial situation didn't allow me the luxury of a pap smear $250! I cried a little on my commute out of the traffic hellhole of NYC but as I got closer home, I said to myself this is a LESSON. This doctor visit is a tremendous BLESSING. Now I know that I must take charge of my health, esp. my womb health because the solution IS NOT with doctors and laboratories. Plus, I would refuse their poison treatments for cervical dysplasia ANYWAY no matter the diagnosis. Guess what? It can come back ANYWAY after you've paid $$$$ to get it taken care of.
Yes my friends I'm still on my fast. Now it's taken on a whole new level of importance. Thanks for allowing me to vent and shake off these thoughts before bed so I could have a peaceful sleep. Tomorrow I am posting a point by point plan of what I am doing during this cleansing fast. It's a time to HEAL MYSELF.

I feel your frustration, friend!
And you're so right about taking control of your own health. Doesn't that give you such a terrific sense of self-empowerment? It does me.
What day are you on with your fast and what are you doing?
Good luck with your endeavors. You're such a strong woman.
*hugs*

| I'm on day four. I'm using the lemonade formula from the Master Cleanse. However, I'm not doing the Master Cleanse per se because I'm also drinking essiac tea, kombucha tea and I'm going to do enemas, hot packs, implants and douches. I was only going to do this for ten days but ten days isn't enough. I'm praying for God to energise me for a good thirty day fast.
