I don't know why medical professionals bother saying don't worry, especially when the next thing they say is "but...". As is I wasn't feeling rubbish enough as it was over this last week with feeling tired and headachey and having weird tummy pains, but then my GP's surgery called last night (that's right they called on Sunday evening) and told me that my smear test results had come back and they were abnormal. So then of course the lady said "Don't worry about it, we'll just book you in for a retest in July"...so if there is nothing to worry about why are you calling me on a Sunday evening???? This of course comes on top of them finding a cyst on my ovary, and I am still waiting for results the rescan I had in December of last year. It's funny how one phone call can completely knock you off your feet and make you seriously rethink things.
Anyway enough of me and my moaning, Esaias and Nathan went for their swine flu injections this morning and they were so brave. Esaias complained a little while the needle was in, but was soon quiet when he got a lolly pop. Nathan sat and watched the Doctor put the needle in his arm and didn't even flinch or complain, that kids must have a super high pain threshold, he's always been like that with his injections. Another one of the Mum's came out with a little girl in tears and announced loudly "I'm not forcing her to have that done." and it made me think that one of the reasons that our children are good with injections is because we don't get worked up about them. I think that if they feel that your stressed or worried they will be stressed or worried.
Hopefully we've done the right thing and they will be ok over the next few days.
