TIFU when I spoke to the surgical planner

Submitted by sugarintheboots t3_124xj47 in tifu

So, I’m getting surgery, and when I met the surgeon, I quite literally became Twitter-pated, transfixed, obsessed, hypnotized. He is so good looking he should be on tv. Plus, he’s a really caring one too. I harbor no illusions about a relationship, but I’m crushing hella hard. I’m also surprised about my feelings because I’ve never felt this way about any doctor.

So anyhow, the surgery was postponed & today I just got the update. I was also going over new symptoms with her. I was so happy that I blurted out to the scheduler that—-please don’t tell him but he’s soooo hot, I mean those blue eyes & everything!!

Welllllll—he was ON the call. I just heard him say,” Well, that’s good to hear!” I wanted to die. How and I gonna face this man surgery day?

TL;DR: Got surgery date & fessed my undying love for my surgeon to scheduler, surgeon heard everything.

I get overwhelmingly embarrassed when I have a cute nurse or doctor. Even if they are just there to ask questions.

"Do you have gas or constipation?" Uhhhhhh idk...

"Remove your shirt" Wtf I'm hairy asf and I haven't been working out on my abs or chest

"Remove your hat" I'm bald nooooo!

"Roll up your sleeve" I have dry skin!

Oh man how mortifying. 😂 I recently had a colonoscopy and about passed out when the anesthesiologist came in. Good lord he was hot. And he was super nice too. Thankfully I managed to control myself and not say anything stupid. I only had to interact with him for a couple minutes.

A few years ago I was taking a medication with priapism being a rare unknown side effect. I woke up with a painful erection and it wasn't going away. Well after the 4 hour mark and an awkward conversation with my then girlfriend we went to the emergency room.

It was awkward enough having to check in with a waiting room full of people hearing me. I was praying the doctor would be a man in his 70s. Instead it was a tall attractive young blonde.

0/10 penis massage.

Too funny, the anesthesiologist who did my last epidural the nurses apologized saying he was in a mood, he was serious but professional, but the guy looked and sounded exactly like Philip Seymour Hoffman. He caught wind of my remark and came back saying his wife calls him Philip when she's mad and he started doing impressions during my labor it was hilarious.

I had to get a minor outpatient surgery and the anithesisologist (no clue how to spell sorry) was SO HOT. My husband was sitting right next to me too. Guy did my IV and then gave my hand a squeeze and said he’d take good care of me. Walked away. I swooned. Hubs was like “hellooo right here” and the nurse just goes “girl I KNOW”

I was in hospital for ten days due to an infection after a prostate biopsy (look it up).

On discharge day, the consultant came round with an attractive woman (a registrar I think) called Claudia.

All was fine but my blood pressure was high. He said "we won't worry about that, we make allowances for the Claudia effect".

I used to work with a neurosurgeon who was Cory Monteith's cousin, and was as hot as him. But a neurosurgeon. I don't know how anyone got through an appointment with him, honestly.

Well after the penis massage didn't work and the meds didn't either the on call urologist showed up reeking of margaritas and guacamole because of course this was Cinco de mayo. I was on a lot of that fent stuff that's popular with the kids these days so I didn't care. There wasn't enough drugs in the world to make them shooting up my dick veins with saline and some other medications and then sucking it back over and over again. They kept try because the next step was surgery and I think we all appreciated the idea of doctor fajita breath opening my dick.

It finally worked and my knob was an enormous knot of bruises. I would kill for that size. The nursing staff assured me that they see this thing all the time but I've been in the emergency room several times and not once has half the medical staff walked into my room to take a look.

My mother had surgery quite a few years ago - on her wrist, I believe? And it was a nerve block in the arm, plus sedation. These were administered by what I was told was an extremely gorgeous anesthesiologist. And she got made loopy enough that she told him exactly how lovely he was.

In fact, he nearly made a mistake that could have killed her, and she helped catch it (she's a nurse). He apologized and she said it was ok because he was so handsome.

So these doctors are used to patients saying all kinds of crazy stuff. Admittedly, they're usually drugged as hell when they do it. But don't worry.

My husband says I fell in love with the anesthesiologist when he gave me an epidural during my first-ever birth. I mean, shoot! Wouldn’t you fall in love with a guy who took away all your pain?!

I had a weird blood infection once. Gave me chest pains and the shakes. Went to the emergency room and they whisked me off the cardiac ward for a bazillion tests. The curvy nurse taking my blood four hundred times kept looking at the iv bag and every time she'd lean across the bed to reach it her boobs were right in my face. At least I was able to hide the boner that time.

Years later I'm at the urologist and the doctor is checking me out. His assistant, who was a hot Indian lady, walks in, says "oops!", then kind of smiles mischievously at me and backs out of the room. No boner that time because doc had ahold of the goods. But she winked at me on my way out. Everyone has an awkward medical story at some point. No big deal.

gross warning

A couple years ago, I had a bleeding, infected hemorrhoid that needed quick medical attention. I got their first available appt with their new PA... Who happened to be young and quite attractive. I'm a happily married man and she was ofc ompletely professional. (As was I) Butt, the whole situation was embarrassing enough, esp with my first meeting with their new doc was her examining my infected bum hole. The fact that she was attractive just seemed to weirdly make it just a bit more awkward in a weird way.

Oh, and then we visited my in-laws for a lunch and I had to try to explain that I was sick without the crappy details.

TL:DR Hole situation was a real pain in my ass.

I'm 47 and just had a triple bypass. Most of my nurses were 24/25 years old, so young enough to be my daughter. They were all attractive and what made them more so was they were very caring, very empathetic, and incredibly intelligent and competent. They also had to wipe me down every day everywhere. And I do mean everywhere. You just have to have the attitude that they're nurses, they've seen and done everything, and it's all anatomy. And before the eww old man young lady thing, I find them attractive. I wouldn't want to have sex with them or fantasize about them , I'm more than happy with my wife of 26 years. Plus I honestly have zero desire for sex and probably won't for awhile.

I had to go to the ER for rectal bleeding a few years back. Well, the nurse explained that the doctor had to do a rectal exam. I'm a mid-20s woman and I couldn't decide the least embarrassing doctor to walk in and strap on a glove would be.

Hottest woman I've ever seen in my life and she was only there to put her fingers up my bleeding butthole.

So I feel you.

Well, it could be objectifying or possibly construed as sexual harassment if a patients comments about his appearance bother him. But it sounds like he took it in a good way. We just don't know for sure what he thinks of it. Although the comments on this thread could definitely be considered objectifying.

As an ER nurse, can confirm. Sorry if you were embarrassed, but we simply don’t care. The weirdest shit happens on the daily. I empathize with your discomfort, just please don’t think any embarrassment is warranted. Glad doctor Cuervo didn’t get you under the knife!

When I went to my first ever checkup after moving to where I live now, the nurse comes in to check my vitals, and remarks "Hmm, pulse is a little high". She was a total smokeshow, there's no way she didn't know why my pulse was high. All I could manage was "haha, yeah, look at that!"

Hi, I'm a good looking doctor, you didn't FU. We're human too and a bit of admiration will never go unthanked. We think we look exhausted and stressed 98% of the time so when someone says "you're really good looking" (outside of a drunken a&e patient) it gives us a little ego boost, just like anyone else!

As to how to face him? You won't. He'll say a quick hello before surgery - if you're lucky - and the next time he sees you, you'll be out for the count. And the final time, you'll be so full of anaesthetic you might not even remember! You're safe!

I remember saying to mine (the second kid, where the damn thing actually worked): “I’m sure you get marriage proposals all the time. But could we just be friends? I feel like you’d be a great friend.”

Of course baby was sunny side up with a giant head, so a marriage proposal wasn’t out of the question but with my husband in the room I didn’t think he’d be down for my polygamy.

I know. Just feels like it and a triple bypass, congestive heart failure, COPD and oygen for the foreseeable future make me feel like. I'll get better, just going to take some work. It's my own fault. My mental health was such that I was trying to kill myself through lifestyle. I wanted to die of a massive heart attack. I know I should have talked to my psychiatrist about it so that's on me. So all those health issues, having everything hurts because I spent my career doing trade work, and the nurses being so young and I just felt really old. I lived a really bad lifestyle too. I did the surgery for my wife and kids, but it's given me a new lease on life. Don't know why I'm spilling my guts. Thanks for reading if you did.

First time I ever gave blood the red cross nurse lady was STUPID HOT. Like this gorgeous dark wavy hair, eyes you could get lost in, huge... "tracts of land" incredibly soft skin etc etc.

And I'm 18. So she goes to take my pulse and she's like right up on me and I'm doing the "think about math so you don't imagine ripping her scrubs off and just banging her silly right here on the folding table fuck it's not working holy shit she's hot" thing and she's like "your pulse is kinda high, are you ok?" And I'm 18 and being all "don't picture those full lips kissing you and doing other stuff. Oh fuck now that's all I can fucking think about" and croak out a "yeah?"

And fortunately her male coworker overhears and is like "hey let me try and take his pulse and immediately right back in the normal range.

That motherfucker knew

Ha!

Labor and delivery can be pretty dramatic. I watched the love of my life, my wife, fart directly in the surgeons face while she was sewing her up after the baby was delivered and she’d had an episiotomy. Like the doc was at best 4 inches away and gets a fart directly to the eyeball. Like, strong chance the doc has pink eye the next day.

And the worst part of it all is, my wife will never, ever let me tell this story.

I had a episiotomy too! (Very likely because the love of my life anesthesiologist did “too good” of a job. Doc said push, I thought I was pushing when in fact I was not). Anyway, no farts, but 47 stitches for me.

I hope you are getting treated for depression- it’s super super common after heart surgery, even in people not already dealing with it. Also, many of the meds they likely have you on can lower libido and make you tired and blah. I hope they also have you in cardiac and pulmonary rehab?

I had to have a procedure and the anesthesiologist looked just like rob lowe. They couldn’t find a vein and my pulse was racing, so the nurse was trying to calm me down and told me to just “look at the anesthesiologist’s baby blues, that usually calms down the ladies!” I shouted out- “hell no! Rob Lowe is creepy!” I don’t know what was wrong with me (well, I do, I spent way too much time in hospitals as a kid and have hospital anxiety). Luckily, he thought it was hilarious. They eventually got the IV in and all was fine. I apologized later, on painkillers and assured him he was very handsome. I’m a moron.

My mother is an ICU nurse, did rotations in ER and NICU.

ER was essentially a more concentrated version of what she deals with in ICU, NICU broke her though.

Top stories from the ICU:

  • "This chicken is tough" (from a no solid food patient): chewing on condom catheter.
  • The detox guy. Went in to violent DTs to the point that the pharmacy tech was sent to buy a bottle of grey goose while the pharmacist did the math of how much to add to 1L saline bags to keep the patient from dying from DT. He was there for damage caused by drinking listerine after his wife had dumped his booze.
  • Assorted "you're kidding right?" family stories. Your relative has been mostly dead all day, no they aren't going to be able to go to wherever tomorrow/next week.
  • More than one anal fissure turned septic. "Guess the object" ensues.

Of course she also had heartwarming stories about people getting second chances on life and such.

​

The TL;DR: is I don't think there's much on this planet that can phase my mother medically... as long as it doesn't involve babies.

I live in a small town and we had an ENT dr who was gorgeous. He was also single and often provided free or low cost care on a case by case basis for kids of struggling families (ha always tried to keep that quiet but small town). The women in town would drool over him in the grocery store and make absolute fools of themselves over him. He ended up marrying a local beautician who was a lovely woman and they had a happy marriage but OMG, the women in town were brutal that he married beneath his status. It was so weird watching chubby middle aged moms absolutely simper over him.

Thanks for asking! Pooping was tough for a while (thank goodness for Colace!). My OB told me to consider a c-section for future births since my perineum was (is) paper thin (think possibly leaking poo juices for the rest of my life if I had to get another episiotomy). So… I went with the c-section 16 months later with my son.

I will say recovering from the episiotomy/47 stitches was easier/less painful than the C-section. Surprisingly. But I don’t regret going that route the second time since it could’ve turned out pretty bad otherwise.

The nurses loved reminding me everything I'd said when Id come back out I also had a surgery last week in London, I woke up from the anesthesia and saw my surgeon/doctor. Note that he's the top doctor in the UK for my condition (blood clots) and it took a couple of years to get a referral to him. Anyway I woke up and said are you the surgeon and he said yes I'm so and so and I, in my anesthetic state, went omg you're like a celebrity, I've finally met you! Can I get an autograph?
