She asked me if I wanted a chaperone! I said no as I really didn't want to increase the viewing figures.
I pity you poor ladies having to go for smears regularly.

Did you get to see what was happening? When I swallowed a camera they had me facing away from the telly - I wanted to see my insides!

the only time to get concerned is when she puts an 'elmet on that has a miners light on the front, ties a rope around her waist, and tells you to call for backup if she is not out in three hours.

I had a night in hospital with suspected appendicitis. They basically told me that if I woke up in the night screaming in agony and projectile vomitting, it was my appendix, otherwise they'd send me home in the morning.

They sent me home in the morning.

The pain starts in the middle of your belly & progresses to the right hand side.

But, looking on the bright side, there's always the rectal exam to look forward to.

I don’t mind that as long as the doctor has a candle light dinner with me first and then talks dirty

I was 75% convinced I was showing symptoms earlier today - tender spot on right flank which didn't appear to be a sore muscle since no movement made it hurt and I couldn't remember doing any exercises to that muscle.

Only about 4 hours later did I remember I was mucking about practicing cricket bowling the other day... sure enough I swing my arm and all the muscles on my right side twinge.

That could've been embarrassing!
