Pap Smear and Medical Check Up

I have not had a pap smear and full medical check up for almost 4 years! I know you are probably raising both your eye brows now and shaking your head in disbelief.  How could this health freak mommy do this to herself!?  How could I have done this to myself?!  I could have killed myself unknowingly.  I have taken care of my kids’ health and well-being so well but neglected on my own.  Any malignant disease  can still be successfully treated if discovered early.   Blame it on procrastination and busyness.  Lame excuses! Shame on myself 🙁

I told the hubs that by hook or crook, I have to get it done by this month but today is already the last day of May!!  I promise myself that I MUST get it done by next week!!  And I hope that everything is A-OK with me! Well, I feel good, no pain anywhere and no unusual tell-tale signs in any part of my body.  Dear God, please let me be fine.  I want to live  long enough to see my girls graduate from uni, get married and I want to be a granny to my girls’ kids. Most of all, I want to travel round the world! Amen…

Have you done your pap smear and medical check up yet? How often do you do it?

    Please have a yearly pap smear…you will be doing a favour for yourself and your family. Do NOT ever wait till you have symptoms. My friend’s daughter had cancer of the uterus at age 25. Her only symptom was bloatedness and fullness. She had the surgery (during which time her fiance left) and 2 years later it had spread to her abdomen. She passed away at age 27.
