robin,

i really appreciate your response i have one problem though. My MD is a male doctor and i am not comfortable with him particularly not with this issue, the obvious answer would be to get another doctor but my experience with new doctors has been so bad that im terrified to go to one now, also i dont have a gynocologist because i am not sexually active, i dont really know where to turn, also do you have any possible ideas (Robin or anyone else) of what this could possibly be? also, even if i cant be diagnosed over the internet, can anyone tell me whether this could be really seirous or not? thanks a lot!
