@maryk2025 That sounds like a good plan.

If I understand correctly your appointment with your gynecologist is in December, is that right? If so, that's a long time to wait. I suggest that you call your gynecologist's office and ask to be placed on a wait list that allows you to be called if an earlier appointment becomes available. If this were me or a close friend or relative and I didn't hear back on an earlier appointment I would call once a week and ask. You are your own best advocate. I know it can feel somewhat difficult to do this but my experience and that of many others here on Mayo Clinic Connect is that this works to get an earlier appointment.

What do you think about my suggestion?
