Ouch!A friend was once given a biopsy by a sleep-deprived junior doctor.
They needed a sample of his colon, so inserted the long bendy jaws-on-the-end thingy, located the suspect area and... he shot through the ceiling. Doctor had forgotten to administer any anaesthetic.
What was your ouchiest moment?

It's taken over two yearsAnd a doctor roughly shoving his finger up my bottom, followed by a colonoscopy, approximately 30 blood tests, a lumbar puncture administered by a moron that involved being poked with a bloody long needle in the spine 7 times and irritating the nerves in both of my legs, a couple of EMGs which involve sticking several long needles in various muscles while you flex them and some ECGs which are like having a TENS machine turned up to 11 to work out the nerve pain I have in one side of my body.
And they still don't know what's wrong with me.
Length? 647 days and counting.
