I had a physical AND a teeth cleaning today

[Skittles]

I cannot remember what idiocy prompted me to make two such invasive appointments on the same damn day. :o

[demnan]

1. At least you got it over with.

[Skittles]

10. yeah

ya know, those teeth cleanings SUCK but DAMN your teefers feel so GOOD afterwards. Yes INDEED!

[MrScorpio]

2. Almost like the Air Force wasn't it?

Aw, the good old days

[Skittles]

6. LOL...............MrScorpio

I'll never forget my first gyno exam in the military. JAYSUS I shouted, WHAT are you looking for? Doc said "you'd be surprised what we have found in there". AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. :o

[LostInAnomie]

3. Dang! The rectal exam part isn't supposed to go that deep!

That doc must have had a really long arm.

[Skittles]

7. BWAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAA

OMG I tell you if I hear one more guy whine about the FINGER IN THE ASS they will get my standard line LET ME KNOW WHEN THEY STICK A FINGERNAIL FILE IN THERE AND SCRAPE YOUR INSIDES. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

[yvr girl]

14. Nothing really matches a pelvic exam for fun

Have you ever been pinched by that beast they crank you open with? Good times.

[Skittles]

19. oh I just freaking CRINGE

thank GOODNESS it is only once a year :o

[Nikia]

30. I had my physical yesterday

I told my husband that have your ovaries squeezed is probably to having his testicles squeezed. Testicles are somewhat desensitized since they are on the outside.
The first time I had a pelvic exam, I got such bad cramps that I felt like I was going to pass out. Luckily that doesn't happen any more but it still isn't fun.
In addition to that, the doctor decided to do lots of blood tests since I told her that I was worried about all the weight that I lost. It's a good thing that I lied down for it. She filled at least 12 vials. I felt like I was donating blood, but it was only for tests.

13. Hey there LostInAnomie,

You have nooooo idea! It seems as though they put their arm in up to their ELBOW and then start moving it around the abdominal cavity as though they were looking for a one mm. size tumor or some such. It is VERY UNPLEASANT! The things we women go through to be able to have babies (if we want them, that is!)

:P

:hi:

[LostInAnomie]

16. Bah! Doctors, who needs 'em!

That's why I never go to the doctor, ever.

No ma'am, the magic crystals I bought from a gypsy will suit me just fine.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. LOLOLOL!

Count your blessings that you have no body cavities that a Dr. can get half of his/her arm into!

[swag]

4. Getting drunk now?

[Skittles]

8. LOL

an Ambien and a couple of drinks - how did you know? :D

[swag]

11. I always enjoy drinks after

enduring much probing.

[Skittles]

12. I save the best for after I DONATE BLOOD

they tell you no alcohol - I go straight home for a shot and am higher than a KITE. :D

[Zomby Woof]

5. That means you're too tired...

TO KICK MY ASS.

[Skittles]

9. YES

I work nights and have to radically adjust my schedule for daytime acitivity - the dentist had to wake me up TWICE. :o

[Hardrada]

15. Teeth cleanings used to not be a big deal for me.

Now they seem to take hours are painful and exhausting and involve all kinds of extraneous machinery, and threats and even signing waivers and being subjected to sales pitches for electric devices for oral neatness. And x-rays wherein everyone rushes out of the room. It's all rather much. I have one on Monday.

[Skittles]

20. I don't mind that laser thing or whatever it is they use now

but you are correct, they seem to take more time than they used to. I got X-Rays too and those damn cardboard squares always cut into my mouth. :(

[Floogeldy]

17. Ya'll are making my butt hole pucker

STOP it.

B-)

[Hardrada]

22. My apologies

Not sure I've ever had that exact reaction to the dentist. It might be a different matter with the doctor and my next DRE!!!

[imenja]

21. I'm sorry

The only thing I hate more than going to the doctor is going to the dentist. Two in one day. :hurts:

[Bouncy Ball]

23. What you mean you didn't go to the girly doctor today, too?

That would have just made the whole day complete.

[Left Is Write]

24. I don't mind teeth cleaning.

I don't mind going to the dentist if they're not drilling, crowning, or yanking.

[put out]

25. Egad, I do!

My teeth-cleaner (the only one available at the times when I can have an appointment) talks non-stop through the whole thing! yap yap yap blah blah blah laugh laugh laugh at herself since I have a bunch of stuff in my mouth and can't reply. question question question and I have a bunch of stuff in my mouth and can't reply, so she makes up my reply for me and then comment comment comment laugh laugh laugh. Once she even laid her head on my chest doubled over laughing at something she had said. about her dog her husband her flowers her car what she had at lunch what she was going to eat when she got home her most recent haircut and what she though about the new colorist and the colors out for spring and the movie she just saw which she thought was hilarious laugh laugh laugh and had I seen it and...

This shit, after the last time when I told her I had a crashing headache and had already taken meds for it and the visit to the office was the cherry on top of a really crummy day and I needed to just zone out for a while.

Then, while I was in the chair with a bunch of stuff in my mouth, a long discourse from Yappy-Gal about her headaches and health concerns...

If this woman ever gets pregnant and gives birth (a universe of self-absorbed shit to yap yap yap about, and I know because been there done that myself) I'm going to find a new dentist.

Thanks for the opportunity to rant. That is all.

[Left Is Write]

26. Well, that's not really the cleaning you can't stand.

It's the CLEANER. And I can certainly understand why!

[Hardrada]

27. That might be better than one who looks appalled

and disapproving the whole time although my teeth are are good shape etc.

[gizmo1979]

28. You're are very very brave!

:scared:

[Skittles]

31. lol

I didn't think about it until I got home from the physical and was waiting for the dentist appt - then I started thinking WTF? AM I INSANE? :o

[gizmo1979]

32. I'm in awe

Just the mention of either causes me to hyperventilate.

[shesemsmom]

29. I did that 7 months ago, also had an appointment to get my hair done.

Cripes did I ever feel worked over by the end of the day. LOL

[HeeBGBz]

33. You might want to get a different dentist

If he goes anywhere below the neck. I'm just sayin...
