Post First Gyno Visit Questions

[letgodc5.livejournal.com]

Ok, so I had my first gyno visit Monday. When I filled out the paper work, it said medical information could be given to my mom. Does this mean that they will tell her I am sexually active? Secondly, I got a pap test and a clymidia and ghonnorea(wow, I can't spell...sorry) test. How will I know the results to these? Do they send them to you in the mail? And how long does it usually take? At my appt, it was really weird. Basically zero talking or explaining of anything, and I don't know if by signing my moms name under giving her medical info(just in case something bad happens to me and she needs to know), if they can tell her I got an STD test. Hope that makes sense....Thanks!!!
