I am seein a nurse in my doctor surgery. I am going to write down some questions and make sure I understand whats going to happen. I have been talking to other girls and some are going through this, but their tests were normal. I have been suffering from a tummy bug during the last week and the doctor (who I saw last Friday) felt my tummy and told me I was ok in other areas. But I just wanted to make sure I am ok, if that makes sence?
