I have been on hold with my doctor’s office for several minutes now. I am trying to convince them that it is time for my annual exam. The woman on the phone doesn’t believe me and is pulling my chart to ensure that I had one last year. I’m like lady, my pills are running out, you guys prescribed them, you won’t give them to me unless I have the exam, and besides, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t ask for multiple exams in a year. It’s not exactly a comfortable experience.

I never thought I’d have to beg for a cooch check before.
