I had to get a catheter inserted into my, ahem... yeah, when i got alchohal poisoning. It hurt to pee for about 2 weeks.

I had no idea they teach medical students how to insert catheters (or place emesis basins under patients' chins for that matter), since the minute they get the big "MD" behind their names they scream for a nurse to do it and run out of the room. Seems like med schools could use the time more efficiently to teach more classes on topics like "Surgey causes no pain whatsoever and any patient who complains is a drug-seeking pussy", and "Left leg, right leg, who gives a f*ck, the patient has insurance, right?" and stuff like that.

I hope I never have to have a catheter inserted. One time though, I was assisting a nurse to insert a foley catheter at the senior care facility where I used to work, and the guy shouted out "What's so wonderful about this anyway!" I had to try so hard not to laugh. I mean, I felt for the guy, but the insinuation that we had told him that getting a cath inserted was going to be "wonderful" was too much for me- I almost lost it and busted out laughing. I guess you had to be there.
