Is your primary physician a (yes Im home stranded at the moment as well) man or a woman? I know they're professionals and all that, but I cant STAND having a mans hands all over my chest, probing around with a stesthescope telling me to breathe harder. I mean, I wear t-shirts to not be you know.. revealing.. but then he has to stick his hands IN my shirt which is worse!

And women doctors aren't much better - if I have ANYthing wrong with me, they suggest a pelvic examination! "My throat hurts" "Hm.. Well, we'll do a tonsil check and a pelvic examination" "My stomach really hurts, Ive been throwing up -" "Hmm.. well, it could be food poisoning... but lets throw in a pelvic examination just to rule out all possibilites" "Ive got a pain in my side, I think its JUST A GAS PAIN" "Woooo! I dont even HAVE to make up an excuse this time! PELVIC EXAMINATION!"

Yeah.
