I was dreading today. Had to take LilBit to OB appt. They want to do a full exam on her. Her mother and OB back in Tn, agreed she would not need to go through that, this is the first time since MrsK passed, that I had to do it. Im good with Lils medical stuff, this one is way out of my comfort zone.
Anyway, we got a wonderful doctor, Dr listened to my concerns( Lil needs to be put to sleep for any procedures, as she fights hard if not) and whether the added risks were necessary for a routine exam.
Doctor agreed with me! And we agreed on a plan that her next dental visit, the OB will coordinate scheduling and they will do a Pap smear only while Lil is sedated.
Right now, I feel relieved its over.
Thanks for listening,
Koz

Glad you have reasonable medical people who can help with this.
Excellent plan.
