I would be glad to have my rt taken at the clinic-but would prefer it to be done by a female nurse or doctor-the same with shot's-I am not embarassed by the rt procedure-it is the most accurate method to check body core temp-and the excitement of having a female perform this adds's the the moment-even an older nurse's (who wear's the white uniform, white nurse's hat, white stocking's, and white shoe's)--or one with the updated medical scrub's-either is ok with me-it is the anticipation of the moment and knowing that someone is taking care of you, professional in the procedure, and maybe understand's the imbedded memory of the past-when rt were the normal way's of taking temp for everyone growing up.

When I had my infected tonsils removed and the flu 6 years ago, I was given the option of in the ear or rectal. I chose in the ear, and for some reason, when she put the thermometer in either ear, it really hurt like the dickens where they had cut my tonsils out. So I let her take it rectally after that. It was embarrassing, but at least it didn't hurt.
