Does anyone else dread those visits, even if not for what they entail but just having to sit in a chair while someone examines you? Like claustrophobic feeling and a good sort of scenario where a panic attack would occur.

I have been having really annoying migraines this week, including now and it's making me feel n*.. right before Thanksgiving Day, which is really awesome. (not!)

And I think it might be that I haven't had my glasses or contact prescriptions updated in awhile. I feel like it is the source.. and I have a dental appointment coming up soon too.

I'm really nervous about both and would rather not do them at all but they seem necessary. How do you handle doctor visits like that? Any advice? Seems silly but it's been so long since I've gone to either and the last times, well, those were different, non anxiety-fueled times.
