I guess just close ur eyes and pretend that the speculum is an exclusive dildo which can open up and u have offered to try out this wonderful new product for the manufacturers...
and pretend that the fat nurse is actually a sexy, fit one and u are all playing a naughty game...
myself i have never had such an exam before and have only heard about it but I guess if i was in that situation then the only way i could try n relax is by fanatasizing a bit... and that is why i am suggesting u try n use ur imagination a bit further!
hope this helps ;)

Talk to your doctor about it, maybe he/she might have tips for you. Also, a relaxing bath might help you, eat good food before it will get the endorphin flowing to your brain which relaxes you. There's also some calming aids that you can get over the counter there's gravol (it's good for nausea but might relax you too) then there's valerianne (you can get it in tablets or you can also buy the tea). Also maybe you could get some breathing exercises you could do before you go and while you are being examed. Or even try finding the problem why this exam stresses you that much, talk to some people maybe your doctor could help with that too.

I was a male MedLab technologist and so stayed out of the room while the doctor went in and did his thing. Some women are like this. Relax, you have nothing that doesn't look unique, it's all the same to all of us. We just want what's up there.
Lay back, relax, take a deep breath. I've had many surgeries, I've had as many as seven IV's stuck in me, some they couldn't find a good vein and it went on and on. I became ill so....I closed my eyes and went out of my body, I told myself. I was on my boat, fishing, we just got some nice fish. Just then the nurse kind of woke me, telling me it was all over, the surgery and all. I simply went into such a deep trance that I fell asleep and didn't feel anything, Try it.

what I do is put my arm over my eyes and think about what I am going to do once the thing is over with I will talk to the nurse and try to maintain the best that I can maybe you need to find a doctor that relaxes you sounds like the one you have is not the best in town or you wouldn't already be nervous about a simple examination which shouldn't hurt so much to be honest. It's not fun but it isn't as bad as all that either.

Take a deep breath just as doc about to check. Keep your mind occupied with other things rather then what the doc is doing. Listen to music. Tell doctor that you are anxious about the examination.

think to other things during the exam: a sea, children, mountains, something you like very much.
Your doctor must try to make you feel comfortable
