Excitement with routine exam questions

Does anyone feel nervousness, fear, excitement, morbid embarrassment during preliminary questions such as: "name, height, previous illnesses, allergies, etc." during a mandatory routine work examination?

Yes, I still do sometimes because I remember years ago sitting in my underwear while the nurse or doctor asked a lot of questions and the older you got the more questions. I would be quite nervously excited because I knew an examination was upcoming after question and answer. Early on my step mother would answer many of the questions for me which was easier in one way and more embarrassing in another

Oh yes, that part builds up tension for what comes next so I like it at lot.

Most often I have gotten those preliminary questions before stripping down for the exam. I like it best if the doctor comes in while I am dressed and asks the questions and then gives the instruction as to how he wants you to undress for the exam. I like the suspense of not knowing how I a, going to be undressed and then given the bad news by the doctor himself rather than a nurse.

Yes, when the nurse asks me the reason for my visit and I reply that I need a physical for work. Knowing that I will be at the mercy of the doctor and I may receive a cursory exam or I may be stripped naked and have every inch of me examined fills me with nervous excitement.

I suppose this counts as routine, but usually the health background questions that arouse me the most are the ones that have to do with bathroom habits, especially if the doctor or nurse asks me in a more casual way, like “have you had any problems peeing or pooping?” Mostly because that elicits a more embarrassed, vulnerable, but also nurtured feeling on my part.

I love question time. I find it fun and keeps me grounded!

At my doctor most of the questions have been moved to an online form with radio buttons and drop down menus, which I am supposed to complete before my appointment. If I do not, they have a filthy ipad (covered with fingerprints) that the receptionist will loan you in the waiting room. I prefer the old clipboard with paper because the questions were open-ended. Now the doctor only asks a few follow up questions from what was on the online form. So instead of excitement, I get annoyed!

I have not had a work exam in some time, but they used to be very thorough. I recall once when I was in my early 20s I had stripped to my underwear and was sitting on the table and no gown was offered which wasn’t unusual then. The company nurse practitioner was asking about previous illnesses and at the end of the list were genito urinary questions as well as about STDs which fortunately I had avoided but I became nervously excited because I knew then she was going to do a thorough genital exam and she did. I was cleared to start work but I would run into her in the hallways which was kind of embarrassing as well.

Absolutely..definitely a tension builder.

I find it annoying but ok with it. Only really have to do when a new patient portal is opened that is not linked to my other portals. I don't find any of the questions particularly interesting sexually.

I'm always nervous and excited at the same time especially when it's a new doctor...
