I’m 37 and healthy. I’ve had the regular flu shot and want the swine flu shot when it’s available. But I think I heard somewhere that if you’ve only had one seasonal flu shot, you should wait a couple of months before you get the swine flu shot, just to make sure you don’t have any symptoms or complications from flu vaccination in general. Medical professionals, is this accurate? And if it is, how long should I wait? Many thanks.

What Are The Very First Symptoms Of H1n1?
I have body aches and am extremely tired. I have a little bit of a cough, but no sore throat. My sneezing has been few and far in between. I am unsure if I am running a fever. Should I leave work?

First Gynecology Appointment!?
I’m 19 and have to see a gynecologist next week! I’m freaking out..
I’ve got a family history and symptoms of endometriosis so I’m going to get that checked out.
I’m not sure if my doctors a male or female because they only gave me the first initials of their name!
What do I expect? Will I have to have a pap smear? ultrasound? etc?!
(I am sexually active, but only been with one person who’s only been with me)
Thanks!

First Gynecology Exam?
I am getting ready to schedule my 1st exam with the gynecologist and I am very nervous. I am 22 and have been kept putting it off for a few years now. I am nervous about even calling and making an appointment. I have no idea what to expect when I go. This may sound silly, but does anyone have any advice that may help calm my nerves?

What Should I Expect At My First Gynecology Appointment?
If you are going for your first pap smear, it is uncomfortable but not painful. They will take your blood pressure and weigh you. Then they will ask you lots of questions about your health and when your last period was. Then they have you put on a paper gown and get ready for the doctor. When the doctor comes in he may ask some questions about your health. He will discreetly check your breasts for lumps. There will always be a nurse or lady in the room with you and if there isn’t and you want one, ask. Then they will put your feet in stirrups with your legs open and he will put two fingers into your vagina and push on your ovaries to check them. Then they will insert a speculum into your vagina and take a long q-tip and take a sample from your cervix. It doesn’t hurt but is a little uncomfortable. Sometimes they will put a gloved finger into your anus to check to see that everything is okay there. Then it is over.
During the procedure, the doctor will probably talk to you about your life or family and try to keep your mind off what he is doing. If you try hard to relax and take deep breaths, it is less uncomfortable.
Don’t be embarrassed, it is nothing compared to giving birth and being in labor, when it seems everyone is checking your vagina.
hope this helps..
