CHRONIC TESTICULAR PAIN

Ok, I post this because you asked if your disability is not listed. Well there it is! See I know it will make you all laugh and that's great, we all need a laugh. But it actually is a huge issue for me. When I go to the hospital there is not "testicular pain" floor. So I get stuck in the most RANDOM places. I once was put in OBGYN! I once was put on the heart floor. I once was on cancer. My all time favorite???? BARIATRICS! I woke up from surgery and I was not supposed to be staying. So I was confused. I guess I was not waking up fast enough to make them happy so they were going to make me stay. I of course was groggy and confused. I noticed the room was HUGE. My bed was big too. So I am the type of patient who hates to make a fuss and I am always appologizing for everything. Well when you come on a stretcher to a new room it is always a production. They swoop in and you have like 4-5 people all around and they stickers go on and the leg cuffs and all that junk. They got ready to slide me over with a slide board. I said "no, no I can just move over myse;f." They were all like NOOOOOOO. But I was like "I am too fat to move, I don't want you to hurt yourself." No one told me I was on the floor where overweight people go. I mean like 400 pound people. This of course all made them laugh because at 165 pounds I was the smallest patient they had! Ahhhhhh, yeah that one was embarrassing when my wife wispered in my ear what BARIATRICS meant. Ahhhh good memories!

It's no joke because it's a part of the male anatomy. I had a boss once that made a joke to some one suffering with hemorrhoids-- I called my boss an a-hole and told him I wouldn't let someone joke about him.

I wouldn't stop without an answer. There are specialist & research physicians who will respond to emails.
