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?

I broke two toesDespite having three children the toes hurt most.
The children were away so I was sleeping in the nude and the phone rang. My chap expected me to answer in five rings so I did not bother grabbing my glasses or putting on a light and just legged it downstairs. I must have missed one or two steps, pain shot up my leg and I fell in a heap at the bottom of the stairs.
The phone stopped ringing and I thought that I would be in trouble so got to my feet and dialled 1471. It was someone else so I hobbled back upstairs, sat crying on the bed and used my mobile to ring my man who used to be a First Aider. I ended up with my foot in the sink.
Next morning two toes were black so I hobbled to the doctor who gave me two types of painkillers and told me to wait and they would get better on their own.

I hope you got a new chap too?Expecting you to answer in 5 rings and you feeling the need to call back immediately, despite broken toes, he sounds like someone you should stay away from.

yes...IMHO, I was picking up the impression of "controlling relationship" (is that the right term?). Hope you're better now!
