"Largest BM a doctor witnessed in his career" sure is a nice achievement to unlock.

Largest BM a doctor witnessed in his career

So far.

[–] the_tab_key@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How many BMs has the doctor witnessed? Is this a common thing for doctors to watch?

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 5 points 1 week ago

2-3k. Very common.

Bowel movement. Alternatively, bowel master, which is probably that poor nurse's nickname now.

Hey Ian! Want to BM my next campaign? 😙

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 1 points 1 week ago

Nurses are such integral parts of a functioning healthcare system, and it annoys me how they are systematically devalued. If we could wave a magic wand and make every nurse into a doctor (with the magic including the extra money it would take to fund this), it would be a downgrade. We often talk about nurses as if they're just doctors, but worse, when in fact the role that they fulfill is qualitatively different to doctors and requires a different, not lesser, skillset.

More undergrads killing each other to get into med school should see this.

[–] the_tab_key@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

I need it measured in courics for it to be a valid large bm.

[–] philpo@feddit.org 11 points 1 week ago

Haha. I've seen worse. Wait. I was hit by worse in worse areas and stool is by far not the worst thing that hit me.

....starts sobbing

I know why by now I prefer my desk and only ocassionally venture back into patient facing work.

[–] Dogiedog64@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Literally holy sized

Imagine the relief that patient felt. That dump was backed up to the bottom of their neck!

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

A friend once had to go to the hospital due to extreme and chronic constipation, and whilst her... evacuation was less... explosive than this, she describes the relief as being so great that for a few glorious moments, she forgot that she was in the ER with a tube up her ass (and that the tube was only necessary when multiple members of medical staff had failed to move things along manually).

Transcendental defacation

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

"Babe what's the matter you seem upset since getting home from work."

"Somebody shat at me."

"Do you mean shat on you?"

"No..."

[–] Nikls94@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I bet that felt amazing.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 5 points 1 week ago

Also had to get custom scrubs made, to fit his massive dong.

[–] JTskulk@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I bet that feels so good as the patient.

Ah, so that's why scrubs
