I've posted on this topic before and got some positive and negative feedback. I actually have two clonic therapist who take a rectal temperature. One asks me to bring a thermometer, the other keeps one on hand. Before the procedure, I turn on my stomach for a three minute insertion. Some readers think I'm acting a fantasy but I swear, it is true. If you'd like to experience it yourself, bring it up casually with your therapist. You may be surprised.
