You have to state why you're sure you're not pregnant
That's happened to me before. "Well. I'm on birth control. And I'm in a same sex relationship. So, yeah, I can guarantee i'm not pregnant."
Dawn: I feel safe with you. Spike: Take that back!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've never had a medical professional press me past "No, trust me." Maybe I look gayer than you, Kat.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I've had times of severe stress where I had headaches that would not go away, and then the muscles that go from my neck to my shoulders started to cramp severely. No idea if this is what you're describing, tiggy. But if it is, a deep tissue massage helped me a lot.

"Well. I'm on birth control. And I'm in a same sex relationship.
When my friend was being admitted to a hospital a few years ago the admitting nurse would not take, "I'm a lesbian." as an answer to "What kind of birth control do you use?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What the heck did that nurse think that lesbians do?
Wait, I don't want to know....

I've never had a medical professional press me past signing forms to swear I'm not pregnant. If I go in this afternoon and they try to give me a pregnancy test before they'll give me an x-ray, I'll just say, "See, I knew this was a bad idea. Thanks, but no thanks. I'm going home to ice my foot and watch Cowboy Bebop."
'Cause, Christ, if I have to wear a hospital gown, leave me with some dignity.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
AT the OB-Gyn on Monday I made the nurse taking my history laugh when she asked if I used birth control. "Condoms." I answered, and as she wrote it down I added "although, technically, I'm not the one using them."

Quite possible. I think it's a hair cut.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
asking how many years without sex before you can call yourself celibate shuts my Drs. right up.

I've had times of severe stress where I had headaches that would not go away, and then the muscles that go from my neck to my shoulders started to cramp severely.
did it ever make your throat muscle constrict? because that's what freaked me out. everything else i have dealt with before.
I forgot to add in that post that my dad said this happened to him a few days ago, which is why i'm leaning towards thinking this is some kind of "virus".
