I'm expecting my boyfriend to accompany me to a research hospital for my rare health condition
how are you expecting him to give you company?
Bring me coffee and magazines while I'm having a spinal tap done
He's your boyfriend so obviously you expect him to accompany you when you're visiting a doctor. Hope he will be there for you.
I'm going to tell him that I hate dealing with the pain and will probably not be able to have sex for a month.
I'm glad you are being open and communicative with each other, that's a sign of a very healthy relationship! I'm sure he would understand your circumstances and take care of you well.
