Re: More medical help needed for tomorrow
Sorry Nicola I forgot about the urine, height and weight tests!!! I probably blocked the weight test from my mind!!! Wow you did have an experience didn't you!!! I was surprised that he didn't do a breast check on me as I did inform him that I had a lump about three years. Thankfully all was well with it and after a biopsy there was no further action required however I was surprised that he decided I didn't need one. Ours was at the end of the day so maybe the doc just wanted shot of us!!!!
I reckon having a C section scar and boobs really should have been enough proof. Poor OH had to do the drop and cough.
Hi All,
Hope your meds went ok Maireads !!
Hi Flyaway, hope you get sorted soon !!
NOW, here's how our's went (OMG TOTAL EMBARASSMENT!!)
We had the same as you Flyaways, nurse first, bloods, urine, weight, height, bp etc.
THEN, we had the doctor (he was lovely), I had to strip down to my undies, not only that, I had a black bra on, white thongs and they had a hole in
I nearly died when he told me to strip !!!!!
On the other hand, I would get rather worried if I was told to prove I was a woman, after all, the hole revealled all and saved me the job !!!!

AND they matched my bra - but I had to take that off.PMSL - get unwired bra for the xrays as you will have to take it off otherwise.

so many things to think about. I don't want anyone looking at my bits! Any of them. They are quite happy hiding under all my clothes. I don't have any underwired bras, will they let me keep my vest top on?

OMG - I thought I was worried about our meds tomorrow 'til I read about the stripping off Looking forward to them even less now!!
I'm taking my youngest step son (16) tomorrow - I won't mention the drop and cough - that would be enough to make him change his mind about going!

Re: More medical help needed for tomorrow
When I had my x-ray, I have to remove my bra and clothes from the top half, slip into a hospital robe and that was it, the radiologist didn't see anything, don't worry

Re: More medical help needed for tomorrow
I had to strip down to my underwear for the medical but the dr kept me well covered so that was ok too! No breast exam, eye test or gender examination
OH didn't have to do a cough & drop either He would have died!

Re: More medical help needed for tomorrow
Wow we really got the poors mans treatment so!!! Our xrays Damien was able to keep his tshirt on and I was able to keep my vest top on, I just had to remove my bra. Honestly I wouldn't have minded the full medical. Its reassuring to hear all is well. Mind you I was bricking it for the xrays as Im a smoker but thankfully all was well there.
