Toss up question on Rectal Temperatures.

Member, if you went for a wellness exam either to your doctor or to the Health Department and after the nurse takes your weight, height, takes your blood pressure, and pulse in the exam room and the nurse says these words before taking your temperature:

The Nurse: I want you know that our oral probes are broken and all we have are the rectal probes. Is alright if your temperature is taken rectally just for this visit?

What would you do?

A. Go ahead and let the nurse take rectally just for this visit.

B. Turn it down.

My answer is A. I would go ahead and let nurse take it but, just like I said under another topic, I am private when I do rectal temperatures on myself and if it is just me and the nurse, it will be no problem for my rectal temperature to be taken. If a friend or family member brought me to the doctor, it would turned down.

This just a toss up question. What is your answer to the question?

I'm on medicare and I do not recall them taking my temperature during a wellness check. Most offices here use temporal swipes when you go in for an illness - so I don't think the issue would ever come up.

The scenario you described is pretty far fetched - but any RT enthusiast would gladly choose option A. I'm not into RTs, but if there were a good medical reason to have it done rectally - no big deal.

I would do it in a heart beat there is nothing wrong with rectals.

A of course. As a rectal temperature fan, such a scenario would be a dream come true to me. I hope the nurse is a sexy female.

I am not so sure what my reaction would be with a male nurse. My only expérience with giving a man a rectal temperature and reciving it from him was when I was involved in a threesome with a young couple in Africa very long ago and we played with thermometers. It felt really strange. Once, as I was fucking Françoise from behind and Daniel was playing with the thermometer in my ass at the same time, the girl suggested: '' Just imagine it's Catherine Deneuve or Faye Dunaway holding the thermometer...''

Always do as instructed. It's needed. When I go for my exam, I am not thinking that this is a voluntary activity. The nurse and doctor have certain objectives and it's for me to do as I am told or advised in general. A temp is hardly going to be a reason to become uncooperative.

As an adult, you own your body, (unless you're in the military, but that's another story). Each time that I go to the doctor, an oral temp. is included in the vital signs check. The reason that I wouldn't accept a rectal temp. under those circumstances, is because, it's absolutely unnecessary. I wouldn't accept that there's no alternative to an oral temp. Now, if in a country where rectal is the norm for all ages, then that's different.

Oh...OK, I guess. I would think it's a little weird. I rather like having my husband take a rectal if I'm sick at home, but a wellness exam with strangers when I'm feeling fine? I'm not in love with those perverted "doctors" in the videos!

If you aren't in the military, in prison or arrested, when you go for an exam, it is totally a voluntary activity.

You, the patient are in the driver's seat. You can refuse anything you want.

Of course, the doctor also has the option of not treating you but generally that doesn't happen.

I bet you would make a terrific submissive! 😁 😁 😁

As Susie said, if you are just an ordinary citizen, it is totally voluntary. Of course, if you aren't cooperative, the doctor may dismiss you and end the exam.

I would go ahead and let the nurse take rectally for this visit. I am always cooperative.

Switchablesusie is right Julie13.

B. Especially if I didn’t have a fever. I’d prefer to check my own temperature rectally in my own home.

There is no reason for a military, prison exam to require a rectal temp. Get real !

This is an ongoing fantasy for me, so I would definitely go for A. Indeed, I might even mention that’s how I get my temp taken at home. I would, of course, be concerned about showing too much excitement, especially if the nurse were acting totally professionally. Ideally, the nurse would sense my latent interest in the procedure and play into it a bit. The embarrassment (and thus excitement) would be even greater if there were someone else in the room such as another nurse or my partner, forcing me to be additionally exposed. Sadly, to date it has remained just a fantasy!

I came across an article about the different thermometers being used around the world, to check for coronavirus symptoms. It pretty much concluded that the only accurate method, would be rectal, but because this is deemed impractical, it's very unlikely to happen. Once in the hospital behind closed doors, it might be a forced rectal temp.....who knows ? I'm sure that in some countries, you would be at the mercy of the current regime.

It would be a strange situation. I would surely turn red. but I would let her do it since it is also a dream becoming true...

A for sure. And not just the one time.

I never said a rectal temp would be part of a military, or prison exam.

I said if you are NOT in the military, in prison or arrested, your physical exams are totally voluntary.

If it's required, I would do as told! It's part of an exam. There is more that will happen.

I think even in the military they can't order you to take a specific physical exam. Failure to get or pass the exam may limit your ability to serve and/or get a certain MOS. Physical exams (my experience) in the military are no different than in the private sector. Some of the more complicated tests were done in small groups (night vision, hearing, motion sickness) - but all personal tests were private and not shared among others. Nothing more or less invasive or humiliating than with a private doc.

I probably would let the nurse do it. Only if it’s a female nurse.

Has anyone ever had their rectal temp taken and the nurse or caregiver noticed you were excited?

The odds of this actually happening are clearly about 0%. But if for some crazy reason I found myself in this situation, of course I would allow the medical provider to take my temperature rectally.

I would accept it and try not to show how excited I am!

From a practical standpoint it’s no big deal. It’s not like knee surgery and they say ‘we’re out of arthroscopic tools so do you mind if we just operate with scalpels instead?’

From a personal fetish standpoint I’d absolutely say yes. Not that the nurse would be sexually interested of course.

I do make a great submissive by the way.

I would tell her , no problem , go ahead, my Mom always said it is the most accurate. Then bend over and spread for her.
