No assistance except for the Japanese thing that has all those functions. Just one question. What kind of weird personal questions do the guys ask and never want uf girls to open up the thread?

The guys keep everything quiet you never hear them say anything Super personal Like this

I just wanted to warn the men so they wouldn't be traumatized by girls/females potentially talking about "girl things"

I'm sure the men are reading this thread anyways. Just to see what we're getting up to

I dont let them numb me when they go poking for IV sites. it would be 2x as many pokes, and more frequently than not, they miss the site and now we have to poke/numb and poke/iv all over again. I let them dig while I whine. The novacaine only seems to numb the surface anyway and I can still feel them digging deeper. IVs SUCK!

We put a numbing topical on kids but I've never had it offered to me before a stick. I'm pretty easy though.

When I worked as an RN many years ago we just put a tiny bit of normal saline in at the site.

What are we talking about here...Bidetts or ouchy shots? I'm starting to chuckle at the mixed up answers..:D:p:D Although Doydie's Saline may work for both..lol

I've had partial hand numbness since childhood (it affected some tasks, not others, was selective--playing any kind of ball was the worst challenge, guess it was partly eye/hand coordination trouble). But I've never had much trouble with the bathroom. One area of adequacy among many areas of challenge. One time, though, I could not use the toilet paper when I had a soft tissue back injury, and this meant I needed help in a nursing home. Could not "sit" at all for a month. Much appreciation for the nurses who work there.
