Don't Be Embarrassed

Don't Be Embarrassed " Tell your doctor everything. Spit it out all at once. You could also try writing out all your symptoms and bring that paper with you to the appointment. When you check in, tell them you have written it out because you’re embarrassed and because you thought it might help the doctor. Offer that paper to them (make sure it’s legible). If the office staff doesn’t take it, then offer it again to the doctor “I wrote this out because I’m so embarrassed speaking these things..could you read it doctor? Then I think I could answer any other questions you may have.”

This is good advise - it will save both you and your doctor valuable time !
