Shenanigans

My hubby has a lot of good stories from the O.R. which are too good to keep to myself. Sometimes, the surgery can be long and tedious so H. need to keep himself amused. For instance, one man had really bad blackheads on his nose and face, so H. took some tape and used them like Biore' strips all over this man's face. After recovery, H. ran into the patient's wife and she said,"I need to find out what anesthesia you used because it cleared up hy husband's face great!" Woot! Go to surgery and get a facial & extraction.

Many times, a certain drug will make the patient very talkactive but they don't remember anything they say. A woman who came in with a dislocated hip and claimed she was laying in bed , watching the news, rolled over & dislocated it. During surgery, it was discovered that she was participating in a threesome and somehow 'in the act' injured herself.

One time, H. was called in one night for a 'foreign body' which doesn't sound too urgent but he went in. The next day I found out that the foreign body happened to be a huge dildo lodged in some guy's butt. The funny thing is that it has happened before to this guy who was sky high on who knows what. The nurse recognized the man who admitted he had been in the hospital before with the same condition. Yikes! You'd think the guy would have learned from the first time.
