Dear smjpain,

I agree with you that seeing your doctor sooner makes sense. Especially since you forgot about a previous infection (MRSA) and currently have some vaginal odor.

Hopefully you were able to see her today.

Okay I talked to my Doctor's nurse on thursday, my doctor didn't seem to concerned she wants me to come back on the 24th of Aug. Do you think that is to long I do have some OBGYN apts. in Iowa city the day before so I could talk to that Doc. About it but I just don't know I have pain in my abdominal area lower region ovaries and stuff, but that's why I am going to Iowa city, so I'm not sure if it's that pain or the pain because of my High white blood cell count plus I have vulver lichen sclorosis and that could be why I have an odor there because I know I don't have a yeast infection there is no yeast sometime I do see little specks of stuff in my pee but it doesn't hurt though what should I do
