No, but she comes so much or asks to come all the time, that I haven't even had a chance to make an appt for a mammogram that I want to get . She is always calling here asking to come and I can never do things for myself. [ Reply | More

i can make the appt, it is just keeping it private is the hard part. She practically asks for a total accounting of our time, she tries to figure out if I am going to the OB again for a pregnancy. [ Reply | More
