Compassion my dear, this world is lacking compassion.

It’s fucked up that when you have low self-esteem, other people liking you makes you question their judgement.

“But things work out, you know. Even if it doesn’t feel OK for a long time, or even if it feels like things will never be OK again, (things) work out in the end.”

Harry Potter’s foster family was probably so terrible because they lived with a horcrux in their house for 12 years.

Every Halloween, I dress up in an amazing costume, and you never get what I am. This year, that won’t be a problem because you’re gonna pick my costume.

an unexpected hx

Patient who looks like my grandmother presents in clinic for “lady problems.” Me: Feminine issues, you said. Patient: Yes. Me: Can you tell me a little more about that? Patient: I’ve already gone through menopause. But I’ve started having some bleeding. Me: When did this start? Patient: About a week ago. Me: Any pain? Patient: No, just some bleeding. And a little yelllowish discharge. Me: Bleeding with discharge. When was your last period before menopause? Patient: About ten years ago. Me: Okay. Any current sexual activity? Patient: Yes. Me: When was the last time you were sexually active? Patient: Yesterday. Me: Did your partner have any symptoms? Patient: From yesterday?

Her response gives me pause. Generally, if she were a younger person, I would ask how many partners. But the patient before me is postmenopausal and in her sixties. I am hesitant to ask, in case it sounds disrespectful in some way, but I forge ahead…

Me: How many partners have you had in addition to the person from yesterday? Patient: You mean in my lifetime? Me: How about just the past two weeks? Patient: Hm. I think around 20.

^^^And this is why we ask everyone everything.

Me: Do you remember if any of them were symptomatic? Patient: I’m a swinger, so everyone in our group has to test negative to partake. Me: Any sexual activity with anyone outside of the group? Patient: I don’t think- oh, wait…there was that one man last week…

^^Again. Ask everything.

Me: When was your last pap?  Patient: It’s been a while. Me: Would you be interested in about having one today? Patient: Okay. Me: We also may want to check for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and a few other things just in case. Patient: Yes, thank you, test me for everything.
