thank you for thinking of me. i just called my gyno this morning, and they said that for right now "it is business as usual". Hopefully it stays that way. Unfortunately my test cant be done unless i am in the office, and the doctor is doing the biopsy. I will make sure to keep on top of things so my appointment isn't postponed or forgotten. My gyno has shown to be very caring to his patients. So long as his office is open, i am hopeful he will do everything he can for the patients that have issues that need to be addressed sooner rather than later.terestrife I know you were worried about your upcoming doctor's appointment. I spoke with my dad (not about this or anything, he was just telling me in general what things are like in his office), and there is a real worry that as things get moved around and there's a rapid disorganized move to doing more telemedicine than they're used to that some patients won't get scheduled for things that they should be scheduled for. So to you and everyone else who has a concerning or potentially concerning condition, please do fight to keep appointments that you need if they try to reschedule you. They're not going to make the right call on everything right now because they are overwhelmed. Some things will get classified as elective that really shouldn't be, so if you're in pain or at risk for something, please appeal these decisions. Remember, it's not being selfish. We all need to stay as healthy as we can right now for the good of everyone.
Thank you for caring for others during a time like this.
