I've been tickled at the doctors office PLENTY of times!!!
1) As a kid, I had a bizarre heart beat, so I had to go to the cardiologist's a lot. I never minded them poking and prodding me until I was about 12, and this incredibly spicy med resident walked into the room with my cardiologist. My cardiologist proceeded to examine me, making sure to check my abdomen by pushing on it all over the place...which made me squirm and giggle a bit...all in front of the eye candy...at 12, I was mortified...if it happened now at 23, I think I'd be just fine with it, thanks! 😉
2) When I was getting fitted for orthotics for my shoes by my shmuck podiatrist (yes, he was a shmuck, and yes my feet are in fact that flat!), he had to make a cast of my feet to get a proper fit for the orthotics. When he was flattening the first strip of plaster of paris on my foot, I gripped the chair and giggled, telling him to be gentle, as I was a bit sensitive...he just smiled at me and continued doing exactly what he was doing...for each strip...on both feet...if he wasn't such a shmuck (for other reasons), I would have melted on the spot...
3) I'm sure many of the ladies on this forum can attest to this one. Anytime a woman goes to the gynecologist for an exam, the doctor does a breast exam. This involves the patient laying on a table, usually with an arm behind her head, while the doctor does first a surface examination, then a deeper tissue examination using his or her fingers to palpate the breast tissue for abnormalities/anomalies. Not only do they check the tissue of the breast itself, but they also check up in the axillary region (aka: armpits) to make sure there are no swollen lymph nodes...well, if you're ticklish and you have a breast exam, no matter how gentle your doctor is, you're going to laugh...and I've had a few sadistic doctors...and more breast exams (professional ones folks, behave!) than I care to remember...but I have to admit, as much as those visits suck, they at least have the right idea by making you laugh at the end of it!!! 😉
Ah, medicine...what a beautiful thing...😛
