Each year we had a test for exposure to tuberulosis germs by geting two small cuts in our arms by a pen tip and application of tuberculin fluid at the cuts. If that resulted in the skin swelling around the cuts after two days, it was sign of having been exposed or even having an infection.

That never happened to me, so I do not know what examinations a positive test could result in. But a few of my classmates were tested positive, but without being treated for an infection as I know.

But in the 7th grade we all were vaccinated for tuberculosis. A doctor came to the school, We had to take off our clothes at the upper body.

The doctor then injected the vaccine just under the skin at the back of our shoulders. The injected substance did not spread, but resulted immediately in a little lump. The vaccine resulted ten in swelling at the point where the vaccine had been given, then a small but but sore that took a couple of weeks to grow, and then a scar that I still can see.

But some of my classmates got a really great sore, and in some of them the healing resulted in eccessive growth so that they got an ugly lump instead of just a scar.

I have many memories of examinations from my early childhood. Some of these memories are lose pieces that I cannot fix exactly in time, place or circumstances. Here is one of these.

I remember myself as a little boy laying naked at an examination table, while the doctor examined my genitals rapidly with his fingers.

But suddenly he grasped a little syringe, with a very short needle from some place at his side.

Then he rapidly pointed the syringe at the area near the right side of the base of my penis, at the border of my scrotum, He stuck the needle stright in. Becaus the needle was tiny, it only went a little way inside, and the base of the syringe also touched the area.

It was felt as a slight sting, not really painful at all, but rather exciting in a way, and so was also the touching felt.

Then he injected something with a quick push at the top of the syringe.

Then he did exactly the same thing at the other side of my penis with the same syringe.

I got the impression that the syringe was not an ordinatry one, but more like a little pump, and both times he pushed at the top a little dose of something was injected.

Then I do not remember any more, and I do not have the slightest idea what this was for.
