However, before you curse me for going through the procedure in a drug induced euphoria, and because I am among friends, I will reveal a final bit of humiliation. They wouldn't release me until I had um, broken wind, where upon all the nurses cheered.Mackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05555318160638307655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1130397031953077904.post-46778318730628986172010-07-12T14:11:42.761-07:002010-07-12T14:11:42.761-07:00Thanks all for your kind wishes!

It takes a lot to shut them up!<br /><br />Yes, the nurses are too cheery, the doctor loves what he does enough to encourage one to watch the tv thing, guess he thinks he's the star? and though you ask for directions clearly, you can't get clear answers on how to get places. Maybe they only do close-up directions? :-) And yes, quiet would be much better than their chatty friendly comments when one is trying to stay calm about what's happening in nether regions--how on earth do they think that helps? I think you should give some lessons in the school that trains these people--not on the science part, on the social part! :-)<br /><br />As usual, humour even in awful circumstances, that's what works. And men, never ask Donna to shuffle her bottom toward you! Donna, some of this could certainly be included in the next book about the Old Dogs, couldn't it? :-) Maybe just the taxi ride.....<br /><br />Gee...do people display those certificates? Another funny thought. Be well, and thank you for this update. <br /><br />BobbieBobbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12489240376198748579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1130397031953077904.post-18737207808505714262010-07-09T08:30:57.519-07:002010-07-09T08:30:57.519-07:00I am so pleased you are OK, and it wasn't me u...I am so pleased you are OK, and it wasn't me undergoing this procedure. <br />You have to have a sense of humour to survive these humiliations.<br /><br /> Earlier in the year I had a abdominal aortic aneurysm scan. They tell you it is to find any swelling and weakness in the aorta which might burst. The leaflet states "This could be serious". <br />Then I had a liver scan in which a female wrestler decided to drive a plastic thing through my abdomen with all her strength. The report from all these tests came up with the earth shattering diagnosis that I was fat.Uriah Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02046023583067265187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1130397031953077904.post-9907916450435178832010-07-09T08:21:05.383-07:002010-07-09T08:21:05.383-07:00Here you are completely knocked out.
