    Default Ewwwwwwwww ewwwwwwwwwww ewwwwwwww!

    Hi all!

    Ok, I am in freak out mode yet again

    Today I had to go to the doctor's office. And, if that wasn't bad enough, my germ phobia going nuts I had to go into the bathroom to give a sample and there was a tiny bit of what looked like crap (sorry to be graphic) on the seat I wiped it off with a THICK wad of toilet paper.

    But, I'm worried. What if it contained SV germs? What if I'm now infected?

    Tell me I'm being silly? Please?

    2 years ago I was at my GPs waiting room for a blood test, & there was a woman in there with one of those cardboard v basins on her lap. That was scary, she did`nt v while I was there, but I was worried that I`d caught something from her. I did`nt get sick, thank god, but I thought that it was selfish & and pointless to come to a dr`s surgery with a sv, because they can`t help with that.

    Isn't it also selfish and pointless to judge someone else as selfish and pointless when you have no idea what she was in there for?

    I see my counselor about once a week, and she shares an office with the university's health center. I was in there last week, and this guy was checking out. He had one of those blue emesis bags. I stood at a distance and felt pretty nervous, but I really felt sorry for the poor guy. He looked awful. I always feel so sympathetic for sick people. It's just miserable. A lot of college kids had been coming in with the virus. The doctor gives them anti-emetics. I'm glad they can find quick help. Thank goodness Spring is coming!
