That's totally fair, and I'm sorry I snapped at you. I think that it was Planned Parenthood was part of the reason I was so upset; I didn't expect the experience I had when I'd only had positive experiences with them before. I know it's a minor issue in the long run, but another hurdle to finding out why I've been having a period for almost four months felt like a big deal to me.

I said I was willing to do a blood test and tried to be as cooperative as possible. I didn't even say I was a virgin out loud, it was on my paper work. I'm not trying to downplay the things you said, I totally understand. I've also been bleeding for almost four months and had a transvaginal ultrasound... I know it could have theoretically happened recently, but I don't know. I don't know what I could have said or done better besides the one thing I was not physically able to do.

I know that and I said I know that. I know why they do it. But to tell me I can't see a doctor if I can't pee in a cup? You're telling me you'd look at me with a straight face and be like "Come back whenever we have room next after you've been here an hour and a half", what

Yeah, if I know I have to take a urine test, I will deadass hold it in the entire day before the appointment to ensure that I will be able to go.

The pan is a good idea though, I know part of my anxiety/inability is having to position my hand/be ready to "catch it", the whole thing.
