LOL! I didn't say this in my original post, but the main reason I got a doctor was because I needed a referral for a new allergy specialist! *g* I wonder if anyone actually goes to the doctor if they *don't* need a referral, tests that need to be done or papers to be signed. I hadn't thought of it before, but you would need to be up-to-date medically if you're going to teacher's college. Usually that's a requirement for anyone working with kids.
The wait alone *can* kill you, though in my case it helped settle my nerves. By the time the doctor was free, I was actually happy to see her because I knew there was now some chance that I'd be getting out of that office! And, yeah, there usually *is* some procedure that you have to go back for because they can't do it that day.
It looks like we suffer from similar woes when it comes to blood work, though I've never had a technician suggest that a "baby needle" should be used in future. I think my veins are just deep. I've had at least two nurses and an oral surgeon (I was having my wisdom teeth removed) throw up their hands in despair. *g*
