What is you most embarassing Doctor Visit?
 You're asked why you need to see the Dr. and you say ah well..I have a pain, ahh its in my armpit. We all know we have sweat glands in the pits, well in the left one it seems I have, oh darn it all I hate this menapause crap...I can't remember what it was exactly. Oh yeah, inflamed sweat gland. I've had this pain for a few weeks now and thought MAYBE it was because I put on a little weight and the skin was rubbing or something. I DON'T LIKE DOCTORS!!! I work with them all day and don't like seeing them after work. So, lucky me I get to take antibiotics for the next ten days. Thats my most embarassing(SP)... Whats yours??? |

| When I was in labor with my first son - I remember yelling at this man walking by with a white lab coat on to come see quick. He ran into the room asked me what could he help me with. I whipped back the sheet, threw my legs wide open and asked "Do you see the baby coming?". To which he responded "No, ma'm, but I would be happy to get the doctor for you - after all I am just the janitor."
My ex-husband still loves to tell my oldest son that true story. |
| Well not my Dr, but my Vet.
I brought my cat Samantha to the vet for her first check up.....only to find out she was a Samuel and not a Samantha.  |
| This wasnt MY actual experience but I was embarassed non the less....
Twin sister getting her wisdom teeth yanked...they fully sedate her...mom and I go into the recovery area afterward to help lisa...as she comes out of her drug induced stupor, mouth full of cotton...she starts swearing and i mean trucker swearing...how cute Dr. so and so was...using the f bomb between every other word...and she was talking at the top of her lungs....LOUD.... Dr. so and so walks in to check on lisa and she says it right to his face ...using the trucker talk...he just smiled and was a complete gentleman about it..... Oh and by the way, the doctor....is my moms best friends husband  |

This is Todd's favorite story! (he said I should post it - it will get laughs and undoubtably embarrass me. )
I was quite largely pregnant with the girls (twins) and we stopped at the A&W Rootbeer stand to get a cool snack. They had booths - the molded plastic kind. We were sitting there talking, and all the sudden this huge fart came out of me. No warning, nothing. It just echoed off the plastic - it was horrible!!! Todd's eyes got huge and his jaw dropped in shock. I wanted to crawl in a hole.
Todd said the guy sitting on the booth seat behind me was just shaking with laughter, but to his credit I never heard a sound. Any time friends or family start in on pregnant stories - Todd says: remember the A&W.......  |
| Oh my! What pregancy does to us! When I was pregant with my son (who is now 22) we went to a very fancy dinner. Someone told a joke, and of course I laughed...and wee'd right through my (new, beautiful) clothes! The things we put up with to have kids! |
| Well, this is a long one so you'll have to "keep up"
Some years ago I was in a VERY bad auto accident. My injuries included a shattered sternum that needed to be wired together. I worked in the Cardiac Cath lab at the time and worked closely with a VERY HANDSOME Cardiac Surgeon. My injuries required that I see the surgeon, who did I mention WAS VERY HANDSOME????? My injuries also required that I be on VERY HIGH doses of Morphine. When I take Morphine I become quite........goofy. I was in my bed in my room when the VERY HANDSOME surgeon came to "check my sternum". This required removing my gown . When the exam was completed I THOUGHT he had left the room, in my drugged haze I picked up the phone and called my fellow nurses in the cath lab and announced:
"DR. _______ just touched my boobs, it was WONDERFUL: Imagine my suprise when on hanging up the phone I discovered that he had in fact NOT LEFT THE ROOM, he was seeing the patient in the bed NEXT TO ME He poked his head around the curtain and started laughing.
I was NEVER AGAIN able to run into him in the hallways of the hospital without TURNING TOTALLY RED, he would just start laughing. Did I mention he was VERY HANDSOME?????????????????????? |
| LOL, Ginny and Darcy's storys reminded me of when I got my tonsils out.
They doped me up in the room before wheeling me towards the OR. Mom was buy my side. I was about 16. She was talking to me and I was looking down the hall. I saw this orderly with a really nice rear. I said to my Mom really loudly, Wow he has a nice rear (ok said the other word) He turned around. Mom was so embarrassed. Now my best friend.... lol She had her tonsils out. Her Dad was a Dr so they allowed him to go into the recovery room to see her after her surgery. He starts talking to her, telling her to wake up and starts asking how she is. She immediately starts freaking out. She says, "OMG!, I'm BLIND!!!" He starts laughing and says "Try opening your eyes, dummy!" LMAO |
| Okay, you guys are TOO funny! I love this place!
My story is not nearly as good but here it goes: I went to the dr recently and the nurse was asking about my symptoms. She asked if I had frequent headaches to which I responded "No" then I thought about it and said "Well, my husband would say I have headaches all the time". What I MEANT was that my husband NEVER gets headaches so to him an occasional headache is a lot...besides he's an accountant and keeps track of everything. I'm sure he can tell you exactly how many times I've complained of a headache. Of course the nurse thought I was referring to the ol' "Not tonight, I've got a headache". It didn't dawn on me until later. I was wondering why she didn't ask any more questions!! DUH! |
| Mine has to do with being pregnant too....
I was 2 weeks early with my 2nd when my water 'leaked'. We go to the hospital they check me out and can't find anything....they ask me..."am I sure I didn't pee myself"
Um no I think I would know that... anyway since my BP was high they decide to induce me....
Lucky me gets the SMUG doctor who thinks he is HOT....you know the type...god's gift to pregnant women...or so HE thinks 
They decide they are going to break my water..... He manages to break my water and he gets SOAKED...I mean really SOAKED...., and I was so full of water he had to go change, he leaves to go change and get new shoes and I had to be moved to another room.
The rest of my stay there all the other doc's and nurses congratulated me on "getting him"
For my next 2 pregnancies, the doc's teased me about them having to wear rubber boots |
| Hmm.. other then daily embarrasing myself with my utter inability to remember pretty much anything right now... I don't have any really embarrasing Dr stories. Yet. Ask me again in November and we'll see how I do! Thank goodness my OB is a woman.
In the meantime, there is that one time I had my wisdom teeth pulled. They put me on tylenol with Codeine, and I sat on the couch the rest of the day laughing at my feet. Apparently toes are VERY funny while you're on codeine. My parents were going to leave me alone for a few hours after the surgery to buy groceries. My mom asked if I would be ok. I said "Yep. I've got my toes to keep me company" then I wiggled them at her and broke into hysterical laughter. She shook her head at me and left. |
Kar...you and lisa should get together....drugs and you two dont seem to really mix  |

I always find my toes very funny when I'm on Codeine as well |
| It's that codeine, I swear!!!! Luckily for me, Mike can't make fun of me for that. Mostly because A) he wasn't there and B) it's no worse then the time he has to take it for HIS oral surgery. We went to pick up a prescription for him, and I couldn't get him to stop messing with the "take your own blood pressure" machine in Target. I had to physically drag him away from it. Hard to do when your guy weighs almost twice what you do, and has decided to be stubborn!
BEWARE THE CODEINE! BEWARE!!!! |
| My dad likes to tell the following story:
My uncle (his brother) was undergoing a proctologic exam of one sort or another. At just the most inopportune moment, the doctor tell the punchline of a joke which my uncle (a large man) thought was quite funny. So my uncle begins to laugh heartily... The doctor says: "Please Mr. S., I'm bearing the brunt of your laughter back here." |

| Ok my turn...
When I was younger I used to have HORRIBLE hives outbreaks...bad enough to occasionally send me to the emergency room because the hives would swell up my throat and stop my breathing. Well, this one time, I had to go to the hospital, and as usual when the hives were this bad, my whole face was swollen up...lips, eyes etc, all puffy and bloated looking, Like a cross between the Michelin man and the Pillsbury dough boy
I happened to, of course, get a VERY cute doctor examining me. He's asking me lots of questions about what meds I'm on, etc, and all I could seem to get out of my mouth was to talk about how I did NOT normally look like this!!! Then, I suddenly realize that my mouth is so swollen, that not only can he not understand a word I'm saying, but I'm also DROOLING all over myself!

My belly was really big by this time, and I was manuevering myself into the booth...when I farted. OMG I was mortified...and the fact that it was a plastic seat only intensified the sound....I could have dropped dead then and there. I am SO glad that I am not the only one who has had this terrible experience! |

 OH! That is so gross, and so lovable at the same time!!!!!! |
| Ok-- very embarrasing--- hummm..
I went for a pap smear a while ago- and the nurse brought in the tray of instuments. I noticed that there was hairspray on the tray-and was a bit curious. When my doctor came in ( I've gone to him for years) he began the exam and - trying to make small talk I asked what the hairspray was for. He looked up and said my chart said I wanted a new hair do... if you get my drift.
He had perfect timing in his delivery - and I got so tickled that the nurse had to get me a glass of water. Turns out he uses hairspray for the slides that go to the lab.  |
| Not my Dr Visit , but............
while working as a nurse at a very busy pedi practice, we had both a Well waiting room and a Sick waiting room. I was on triage, and a Mom called asking to bring in her son for question of chicken pox. I instructed her to not use either the well or sick room, and per our policy to drive around back to the isolation room . She knew this policy and arrived in about 20 minutes. A knock on the door of the isolation room and when I opened it her son, (about 5 years old at the time ) entered the room exclaiming---- I have the ChickenPOPS
I wrote that as the Subjective statement in the chart. The Doctor came in and agreed with the diagnosis........... He loved the new medical term, and used it often. Not embarassing, but a cute story . |
| I went to the dr one year during the height of flu season. The waiting room was full of sick kids. I was running a fever and the room smelled of vomit. I was wondering why someone had not done somthing about it and why people keep looking at me. It was so hot so I took off my sweather and discovered that my cat had thrown up on the back of my sweater. To this day I do not know how I could be so sick that I did not notice. I had to take the cat to the vet that afternoon. All in all a icky day for both of us. |
| Everyone should have a hearty laugh every day. Thank you people! Alas, I don't have a medical blooper story.....yet, give me time. |
| Okay, I was at the OB/gyn in those dreaded stirrups (sorry about the visual ):) I guess I wasn't relaxed & I had a terrible cramp in my leg.
In reaction to the cramp, I kicked out, knocking my doctor (who is a small man) across the room into the instrument cabinet. My doctor had a shocked & frightened look on his face . Needless to say he was very cautious when he resumed the exam |
| Oh Lord, I have nightmares about that happening myself as I'm very prone to nightmares and my MD is a little guy too. |
| My last pap smear - During the conversation prior to the exam I made a comment about the discomfort of the procedure. When the doctor was ready to start the exam, he says in a serious voice, "I'll try not to hurt you."
I immediately started laughing and said, "Yeah, that's what Gary said too." Then we were both laughing loudly. Gary was in the next room getting blood taken for some tests. After we left I told him what happened. He said him and the nurse were laughing and saying that it sounded like we were having way to much fun in there.
I've gone to this doctor for years, but I still told him I was sorry, that I shouldn't have said that. I just couldn't resist. |
| OMG...toooooo funny!
I tried to embarass my gyn by keeping my St Patrick's Day socks on while having my pap test, and exclaimed it was St Pappy's day...she sort of laughed, but the receptionist liked it more when I told her why I was there. LOL Honestly my most embarassing dr moment was when I went to the Humane Society to apply for my kitties, Lucy and Jewel. You have to fill out the big form, and I was so nervous that they would reject me...anyway I was half way home when I realized that instead of putting Dr Clement in the space for REGULAR VET I put Dr Mehta...she is my GYN...I was so mortified, I thought if they looked into it, they would have thought I was trying to be funny....you know....I was getting pussy cats! My girlfriend still likes to bring that story up...she was with me on the ride home from the HS, she had to stop the car, as she was laughing so hard.
ps. The drool picture almost made me spit out my coffee! |
| OMG OMG OMG! You guys are absolutely hilarious! Just want to let you know that I'm crying over here! I really don't have any funny stories to tell..give me a few years |
| Ah yes...a memory from the past:
On my annual visit for a breast exam, the nurse left me a blue paper modesty vest with instructions to remove my top clothes and put on the blue cover thing. She then closed the curtain around my little exam area. No problem...I did as I was told and waited for the doctor to come into the exam room. Time passed and another woman was shown into the exam area next to mine. She was given the same blue cover thing and the same instructions. I heard lots of movement next "door" together with grunts and groans as well as a lot of cussing. Finally the lady next to me pulls the curtain back to show herself stark naked with her legs in the two holes of the blue paper 'vest' and asking me how it is supposed to stretch up to cover her top. At that same time the doctor arrived for my exam and we both looked at the gal, looked at each other and then damn near killed ourselves trying not to laugh out loud. |
| OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOODNESSSSSSSSSSSSS
That is HYSTERICAL!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| I'm so glad I've finished my coffee............. |
