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'm sorry!Just reading your story brought tears to my eyes. As an ex-nurse, I used to see the guys on the orthopaedic ward going through similar bouts of non-pooping. Weeks in traction following, usually, a motorbike accident will cause awful constipation, for which we had to administer boatloads of laxatives; both oral and anal. The relief when they finally pooped was mighty!

I must admitThe pain was offset slightly by the feeling of relief.

I've worked in those situations tooand couldn't understand why we didn't foresee the constipation and just give them laxatives from the start. We had bedpans, ffs!
