I played with plenty, but after they've been removed. Not done an in
situ examination, thankfuly.

Some people pay good money for that sort of thing.

 

Glad to see they're hanging level again.

That creased you up, I can tell.

No they're not. They never do.

I asked SO to take the piccie, sort of, 'can I ask a favour ?' 'Yeah,
sure'. 'Can you take a picture of my arse ?' A couple of seconds of
looking at me, blinking, and I'm wondering, oops did I use the right word??
She refused. So I had to indulge in a bit of DIY.

It's no biggie.

I don't recall being offered a sedative - I certainly drove myself
there and back and hadn't been warned that I shouldn't. They gave me
a spray on the back of the throat that was remarkably banana-like -
this prevents the gag reflex making things get messy; then it was a
case of sitting on the bed and swallowing the python.

Once I was laid down on my side and they turned the screen so that I
could see what was going on, I forgot I had a tube down me froat.
After about ten minutes it got uncomfortable in the upper throat and
jaws, so they twirled the snipper about and nipped a lump off the
inside of my stomach - that /was/ uncomfortable. You're not supposed
to be able to feel it and it wasn't pain as such, I just felt it
happen and it was unpleasant.

As many things, it was a blessed relief when it was over. On the
sacle of unpleasant procedures, it ranks well down below
un-dislocations, root canal work and definitely below a lumbar
puncture followed by epidural steroid injection.

A lumbar puncture (aka Spinal Tap) is fun, especially that pop

It was the grating as the FOAD needle pushed my vertebrae apart that
got me. Followed by the very strange sensation of coolness flowing
down inside my back, then down into my legs.

The "fullness" of having a lumbar region sloshing with saline
afterwards was definitely odd, and didn't help the desperation when
blocked in at the hospital car park, having been told to go home, take
FOAD painkillers and go to sleep within 45 minutes before the pain
started.

 

With a long enough extension and a good map of the body, can't it all be
done through the mouth?

 

If its a throat job, it will be very uncomfortable... If its a willy
job, it will be very uncomfortable... Having had the willy one, I
think I'd plumb for the throat jobbie next time... Not that it would
be much help in detecting bladder infections...

They're done everyday, relax and think of Monty Python, you'll be
fine...

The mouth route gets you into the stomach and then the gut. And I don't
believe that there is a physical tube from the gut to the bladder
(although I could be wrong).

For looking at the heart the usual entry point is the femoral artery at
the top of the leg. Nice straight 3-lane highway back into the
ventricles

Oh God! I had forgotten about the willy job I had done as a kid,
While I under a general for the exam, I was pissing blood for the next
two days. Felt like there was a razor blade up there.

They're fuckers.

I was having my left shoulder re located one time... This big fucker of a
doctor was arsing around for ages and couldn't get it back in. He gave up
after an hour of straining..... and me calling him every kind of **** under
the sun. This cute little filipina nurse wandered over, grabbed my arm,
thumped me somewhere near me shoulder blade and voila... popped in like
magic. The doc was amazed. I was happy.

Dislocated fingers, however....... PAIN!!

That's fairly common. A lot of docs don't get enough practice at that
kind of thing.

Unfortunately, the days of the beer-swilling, rugger-playing medi
student are past; I mean, I quite willingly follow advice from a doc
who's actually had a broken bone or two and knows a bit about pain.
