Last week I hadn't been feeling that good. I was extremely tired and I felt sick, I also had no appetite, after feeling like this for about a week, and missing some classes, I went to Health Services on our campus. The only things they could come up with after taking my temperature and blood pressure is that
a.) I was pregnant (okay not a possibility, unless God decided to make me the next Mary)
b.) I was depressed (um......I've been depressed before I know what it feels like. They were like, well it comes in different forms, Hello! I know when I'm happy and when I'm not. It's not normal for me to feel this way, hence going to the doctor)
c.) I have acid reflux disease (Okay seriously! I do not have Acid reflux, Is it that hard to say, maybe you have the flu, even though you don't have a temperature?)
How is it okay for Health Services to assume that because I'm a college girl that I'm pregnant? It's not!
I then got tips on eating healthy because after asking me what I ate in the past two days, even though I told her that I didn't have an appetite, she assumed that I wasn't eating healthy. Right.....I eat vegetables at every meal when I'm well.
So thanks Health Services for putting me at ease about my conception of a child without sex, my depression screening, remember it comes in different forms, and my non existent acid reflux disease. You have really made me feel like you are fully capable of diagnosing me.
P.S. Just because I'm a college girl does not mean when I have an upset stomach and nausea that I am pregnant. Thank You!
The book this time is:
Your basic sex ed book that tells you about how a girl gets pregnant. Maybe Health Services needs to read that book!

I am not sure what this comment is about that is posted... but I wanted to tell you I love reading your blog! So keep it up! I have a similar story when I went to Urgent Care last night due to a headache lasting 3 days that Tylenol does not help with. They told me there was nothing else they could do. Maybe mine is a little more complicated due to my situation but I just have to say: Way to go health care professionals!
duh u are totally preggers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
