[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think this is very considerate of you.  When you talk to your DSD about it, let her know that there are no right or wrong answers and that your intention is to support her through this, in whatever way that looks like and is most comfortable to her.  Maybe have plans to go to lunch with her after, or have a comfort favorite of hers with you in case she just wants to go home.  I think she'll appreciate the gesture.

Also, do your part to vet the doctor and nursing staff.  Find someone with the beside manner that you think she'll respond to well, or ask if she wants to be involved in that process.  I love the doctor I go to now, but she would have terrified me (she's a New Yorker -- very to-the-point, if you will) on my first visit; I remember being grateful that the doctor I went to was calm, made me feel welcome and valued (not like I was doing something "wrong" for being there for birth control as a teen), and genuinely seemed to care about me.

I think you have a lot of good things to sort through from previous posts, and no matter which route you go, know that it's great that you care for your DSD as much as you do.[/quote]
