@Alfred What are some good excuses I can tell to my doctor to get out of a rectal prostate exam?
@YouInMyEye You don't need an excuse. Just don't get one.
But if you feel like you need one, how about this:
Digital rectal prostate exams (sticking a finger up there) are useless for diagnosing anything, and there is no reason to do them.
Now, if it's one of the real exams that use cameras and technology instead of just awkwardness and lube, that's different.
@YouInMyEye If you're avoiding a _real_ prostate exam, I think the proper excuse is simply "I don't care if I get cancer or other ass-diseases".
@YouInMyEye @AskTheDevil Just saying, but a lot of young people have passed away from this cancer. Don't be hesitant to get tested but do so within your comfort. I don't want to see my buds passing away from something that could have been the detected early.
I'm just gonna ask if there is an alternative method. Oh I hate people wanting to stick things in me especially down there... you shoulda seen me when they put probe down my #1... I was amazed that big probe went in... very very deep....oh the shock and the pain... And he didn't say anything before he went in and then said, breathe afterwards. 🙄 😠
@YouInMyEye @AskTheDevil Oh yeah believe me. I don't like having to go for the yearly gynecological exams either. Something about having unfamiliar hands on me just really bothers me.
@YouInMyEye @AskTheDevil I really hope so, I don't want to have to deal with metal on the bits of my body I want to get rid of. The idea of pressure being put on them makes me wince. I hurt enough just on a daily basis from them. And I know why, my primary had found possible fluid cysts in my top side and I'm not okay.
Oh no... 🤞 😔 I'm an atheist so I can't say 'may god be with you' so how about, We know you can beat this, let's go...? 🤛 👊 🤜
@YouInMyEye @AskTheDevil Right on man! I know I will. It doesn't appear to be malignant in any way, It is painful but you try having fluid buildup on your chest and have it pushing beneath your arm. That shit hurts.
I hope the pain will go away soon. I hate developing something wrong with my body and having to fight and wait to be freed from the seemingly endless pain and suffering. I seem to jump from one kinda prolonged pain/problem to another with small happy gaps in-between... I want to be free, I want you to be free. I want everyone to be free... except for the what's his name and his cronies.
@YouInMyEye @AskTheDevil As soon as they did this mammogram they're going to be scheduling me for biopsy surgery so hopefully they'll be able to get the whole thing out. Cut the damn things off so I don't have to worry about it again.
@PaganMother @YouInMyEye I like when the test is also the cure.
@PaganMother @YouInMyEye I don't even like shaking hands, much less having someone's hands in my hoo-has.
@PaganMother @AskTheDevil
In this area, we need quick improvements that can handle these exams without physically probing...
