Today, I got up early for a doctor's appointment and chugged two cups of coffee. Ten minutes before I was supposed to leave, my doctor calls asking to reschedule, which would have been fine had I not cleared my whole day for this appointment. Now I'm too wired to go back to bed. FML

I'm not sure how early "early" is to you, but why would you have two cups of coffee right before you were going to see a doctor? Maybe it's just me, but I try to steer away from stimulants before seeing my doctor, just so they'll get an accurate heart rate/BP reading. Anyway, if your day is cleared, perhaps you can do something productive until the caffeine wears off enough for a nap?

Nothing better than having to get stuff done involuntarily. Root for the nap.

Not sure how that is an FML... You now have the whole day off to take advantage of. Do something fun or productive. Sleep isn't the only thing to do when you're not at work.

This appointment was for my first Paps Smear and I wasn't sure how it would affect me through out the day, that's why I cleared my schedule. I'm not a early riser, so the coffee was to keep me awake and to help in case I needed to give a urine sample. As you can tell, I was not prepared for it at all.

Those take almost no time to do and will have 0 effect on you for anything else you'll do in a day. Try googling procedures and it may help keep you from unnecessarily clearing a schedule.

I don't think she meant that it would have an effect on her like getting a numb arm. Pap smears are not a fun thing to do, especially if it's your first and you have problems with this kind of examination.

Hey I'm taking a day of holiday for a routine operation because I don't want to go straight back to work afterwards to a chorus of 'how did it gooOOoooOO's. If OP can clear her schedule then good for her. Hope you had a fun day finding other stuff to do!

So I don't know about you maybe you're really used to having metal shoved up there but after my first pap it hurt down there so bad I could barely walk for about 3 hours. Just because YOU have almost no side effects doesn't mean it's the case for everyone

I am in a horrible mood the rest of the day after paps. Now that I have diagnosed endometriosis I can expect a few of them a year whenever I get lady problems. Usually the main thing that might happen after your first pap is spotting throughout the day, if you have a good Dr they make you as comfortable as you can be with someone looking around in your lady parts

oh no...just guess we'll have to do something else productive instead ?

You should be back asleep in like thirty minutes

Well now you have a day to do whatever you want. Clean your whole house!

Bet the doctor would have charged you for an appointment had you been the one needing to reschedule. Funny how their time is valuable but yours apparently is not.

Enjoy your day off, mate. Go to the park or something. No work, right?

dude smoke a bowl chill out go back to sleep failing that take a vicadon or Benrdryl lots of people swear by benadryl (whatever) or god forbid have a drink

I'm confused. if you got up early for the appt it seems like it was an early appt. so why would you have to clear your whole day? I think you're way over reacting.

Really? This is the worst thing that's happened in your life? ydi
