Once a year is all my gyn requires and I've been on the pill almost 20 years (and she's been my doc the entire time). I even had a breast tumor (benign) in my early 30s and she never ever made me come in more than once a year for my pap smear and mammogram "order." By the way, I'm 43.

Queen reminded me of a funny thing that happened at my obgyn's that I just have to tell. I was having symptoms of menopause (at age 43) and said so to the young nurse who was asking questions and taking my vitals. She asked me what symptoms and I told her--mood swings, night sweats, irregular periods. Then she said (and I swear this), "Are you having any public discomfort?" I was baffled and said, "What do you mean? Hot flashes in public?" Her reply was, "No, here in your public area." She motioned with her hand to her "public" area! I could hardly wait for my one on one visit with my doc, who was also a friend, to let him know he needed to educate her on terminology!

OK, WAY OT, but this story reminded me of something that happened to me. I was working for a city and typed up a public hearing notice/staff report for a land use issue. It was only after it was distributed that I noticed I left the "l" out of "Public Hearing".
