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?

Herpesviridae...the family the virus belongs to (i'm a geeky virologist) is a sneaky lil critter which likes to hide in the body and awaken from time to time. I learnt in uni that even chicken pox which is also a herpes virus stays dormant and comes out again in your 40s! Not sure about this one but it always seems to come about early October time, and whatever it is it leaves me with a red-raw throat for about 10 days :(
The tea helped too, and then I found this wonderful stuff called diflam which numbed everything in my mouth :D
