In reply to: old med staff to Laura 's message, "Re: Paul Was Lucky, He was Prepped Later Than Most" on 23:29:43 06/18/09 Thu

I have to say Laura that although I can remember starting to feel relaxed and drowsy, and one of the nurses asking me to count to ten, and passing out before I managed it. Before this, the nurses, and there was four of them, did uncover me literally the second I was wheeled into the operating theatre. So I spent a good few minutes, which felt like ages, before going under, laid out naked and wide awake in front of them.
So I would also agree with Cynthia, and old med staff. I was extremely embarrassed and the nurses knew it. They could have left me covered until I passed out and shaved that tiny amount of hair off, which took her maybe thirty seconds. It thought they were humiliating me enough keeping me naked, but no, I spent half of the time with my legs apart!
Although they were doing their job, I’m sure they were amusing themselves at my expense.

I agree with you now, Paul. You were not as lucky as I said you were earlier. They were wrong to treat you that way. The whole idea of the medications is to relax the patient to make the whole OR experience easier, mainly the induction of the anesthesia, but also the preliminaries.

I hope they were just in a hurry to get you ready and I hope they were not deliberately trying to embarrass you.
But the "hurry" excuse is totally invalid, anyhow.
But how can we ever know why they did what they did to you?

I don't know for sure Laura why they did what they did to me. But i think it's probably fair to say that they were 'making the most' of their position. Whether they were enjoying embarrassing me to extreme or always enjoy keeping their patients naked i don't know.
Before i was even wheeled into the operating theatre i was examined by nurses that seemed to have nothing to do with my op, and were nowhere to be seen when i woke after it.
