Has anybody had a finger in their bum recently?

[slowmotion]

I'm just asking. I have, and it wasn't recreational. Medical peeps do this as routine practice, and I was on the sharp end. OK ,OK, a lot of female posters may say that a whole tribe of medics live in their reproductive organs, men are pathetic etc etc, but I'm interested in what men might say.

Are you only interested in finger stories?

Judging by the GP's attempts to investigate with a delicate finger, I think that I might not be quite ready for more robust tools.

Twice, and an attractive lady doctor each time. I can't say I was thrilled, but some gents pay good money for that sort of jolly.

Havenyou been falling down the stairs naked while greasing aubergines again?

How recent ?
8 months ago and it picked up that I had prostate cancer despite having a normal PSA result.

About two weeks ago. My PSA was entirely normal but I have five friends with prostate cancer, and I was worried. I expected my familiar male doctor. I presented myself with a squeaky clean rectum (how do you do that????) only to find that there was a tiny female locum. It went ahead, despite a brief moment when I thought I could run for the door. She wasn't that gentle actually.

Anybody got any clues about how to clean your botty prior to this stuff? It would be polite to do so, don't you think?

Few years ago.......and it was a female GP. Took me by surprise as I expected my 'problem' to be treated by prescription.
I well remember the feeling of dread as she put the plastic glove on.
I also remember her saying "now you must relax otherwise it may hurt" and me thinking...... how the hell am I supposed to relax while you shove your fingers up my bum .
Whatever she did up there cured the problem (something was apparently twisted).
I said to her "now I found that very uncomfortable so have no idea how people can do it for pleasure" but.....thats probably not a subject for CC

I have and also investigations on the other side - a cystoscopy. Now that's an experience.
Glad to say that I am all clear, but on a 9 month watch, so one more to endure.

Plenty of people my wife works on have not washed since the last visit, she is a podiatrist. Not quite as bad as your scenario I guess.

25 years ago by a doctor with hands the size of a bunch of bananas, made my eyes water that day.

That was a bunch of bananas, and that wasn't a doctor!

A few times now by a variety of males and females and I've yet to work out which is worse.

The pressure test round the front was no cake walk either or the BBC camera they put down there every 3 months or so.

Never the finger, oh no I bypssed that and went straight to HMS Invincible

First time for a Sigmoidoscopy which wasn't as bad as I was expecting, but I'd never join a queue for one, however, as that didn't show anything they decided a few short weeks later they should do Colonoscopy, (same procedure but they go further in/up/round), only this time it was HMS Voracious, and I think it had been in an accident that had flattened it's front!

As a result I'm convinced that Captain Consultant took a run up from the other side of the room prior to making first contact

Still awaiting these results but at least I can sit down again now after a couple of weeks
