Something’s not right

Re: Women’s Health

Thankyou for your reply @Gwynn 

 

I’m from a small rural town, no such thing as a physical health nurse or a community mental health part of the hospital where I’m from.  

 

A few years ago there was a women’s health clinic run a day every few months with a female Dr or a practice nurse, but they no longer happen.  I actually don’t even have a gp, which is why I booked at a clinic here in this city while my mum is recovering in hospital from a broken hip.

 

I think I do remember hearing of DIY smears, I really should have looked into that a lot harder.

 

 

Re: Women’s Health

Hi, I’m a bit late to this story but I was wondering how it ended up. Did you get it done and how did you find it all? I feel I could have written your original post!
