We are successful single heterosexual women in our 50's, 60's and 70's who for unforeseen reasons never married and had a family; BUT, we lead very full and interesting lives. Let's share those lives, experiences and celebrate the women we are.

A Visit to the Doctor
It appears that March, April and May are my months to have all my dental and medical checkups.
I have already had my dental checkup and just needed a cleaning, I have seen my ob-gyn and received my prescription for my mammogram/sonogram in May, my ob-gyn also reminded me that this May I am due for my colonoscopy and she wants me to see a dermatologist.
Okay, dermatologist appointment is set for when I come back from vacation, and I went to see my generalist yesterday to check my blood pressure and also my cholesterol and blood sugar. When I made my appointment I asked if I need to have blood drawn and I was assured I did not.
Was the booking center wrong. Good news my blood pressure is only 120/78 - quite good despite everything going on in my life. Bad news, they wanted blood work - despite the fact that I had eaten breakfast I went to the lab and had my blood drawn anyway.
Turns out that all is good - all my numbers are going down - the right direction. I was happy to hear that I should continue my diet as is and my exercise - no new medications for me!!!
