I see her once a year for a skin cancer check.
We were laughing today because of how predictible our relationship is. Once a year, in the summer, every year. She is a lovely lady and I appreciate that she checks me out every year.
Im skin cancer free at this point. Im always nervous about going. Its so stupid because it doesnt hurt a bit but Im always afraid she is going to find something and biopsy it and it will be malignant. I used to tan alot in college and when I was younger. Id go to the tanning bed all winter in Chicago just to get some color being so pale and all. I definately look better with a tan no doubt about it, but I know it isnt good. I always wonder when Im going to pay the price for all those hours under the bulbs!!
I feel this way about mammagrams too...I know its totally preventative and can save your life but I just wish I didnt get so anxious!! There is always that rush of good feeling and endorphins when you get the okay that there is nothing they can see wrong. Sort of that sigh of relief.
Funny though I dont feel that way about the dentist. UGH...now that I truly hate!!!
