Today, I had to remove a glass bottle, complete with an ineffective pullstring, from a patient's rectum. He claimed that he'd accidentally sat on it, and later threatened to sue me for every penny if I breathed a word of it to anyone. Oops, looks like I just did. FML

Hopefully said patient doesn't read this website! Otherwise, good luck being poor!

Honestly, if the "FML" is because you might get sued, well then you deserve it because you just thought that it was funny to tell this persons story when this person told you not to...so much for doctor patient confidentiality like #8 said...

Well it was clearly funny to everyone else. As for the confidentiality, all he did was tell us what happened. Do you see a name? No. Also, I highly doubt anyone on here cares enough to truly dig up the name of the patient. If you're going to be so serious, this isn't the site for you. ;)

OP's next post will be "Today I lost my job because I posted private patient information on a public website. Apparently it was a 'HIPPAA Violation' FML"

1. OP's from Croatia not the US, so your comment's shit. 2. It's "HIPAA" not "HIPPAA". Go figure nobody who ever uses that against OPs can ever spell it correctly much less understand how and when it applies. 3. Reverse FMLs were never funny. 4. Stop ******** on our country and reinforcing the "Americans are ignorant *****" stereotype.

1. I was on my phone, which does not show the country 2. So I hit the P key twice, that means I don't understand the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act? 3. Sure they are, numbered lists were never funny 4. Stop ******** on our country and reinforcing the "Americans are all bastards and asses" stereotype. 5. I'm a moron.

Well, considering you are wrong in every way in your first post yet claiming you know what you are talking about and that the doctor will lose his job makes you look pretty ignorant to me.

#118, the fact that you're acting like an ass (and a bastard, too), you're not helping out with the rest of America's reputation.

Hey, u did not break confidentiality. No worries. I'm in the same profession and sometimes we have horrible days. Days no one else can ever relate to. But, most of the time we live our job. It's good to vent. This is the place to do it :)

I had to do the same thing once as an EMT. I explained to the patient how "that doesn't just happen by accident", and that "I'm gay so I know this"...along with how dangerous a shattered thin glass bottle can be inside a rectum.

It's not just gay guys who like to shove things up their ass!

He knows that... He referenced himself being gay to make his point to the patient... Things just don't get stuck up there... Being gay vs straight would indeed hinder any argument with the patient... You would think. (A glass bottle tho... Someone needs to get that guy to a sex store to pick out safer alternatives of hitting his g spot)
