hey, Spike - of course, it's gross but weren't/aren't you a doctor? Lots of medical problems are pretty gross.
I got talking with a woman doctor I had before I moved - she was good & we became very comfortable around each other. She said while patients are embarrassed as all get-out when they need to have "intimate" examinations done, so are most of the doctors, unless they become real blasé about it. But the doctor has to assume an unruffled pose & proceed with exam.
A good reason I'd rather be a pathologist than a doctor. :) (Oops... not to imply I am one but it fascinates me.)
