Do you guys get nervous when you go to the doctor?

Am I alone??

I always get super nervous 😬

I would get so nervous that my blood pressure would go up. I think I’ve gotten a little more at ease with it.

Yes, I get nervous to the point that I’m on the verge of a panic attack anytime I go to the doctor for anything. One time I had this male doctor at an urgent care and he almost sent me to the ER because my blood pressure was so high, it was only that high because I was 1.) in a doctors office and 2.) alone in a closed room with a strange man. I haaate the doctor

Yes! I especially hate needles so I dread whenever I go and they say oh let’s do bloodwork. Like no thanks, that’s what I dread the most and get nervous about to be honest.
