Asked if you had your RT taken before having it taken.

I’ve had my fair share of rectal temperature takings and I guess out of protocol I was occasionally asked if I’d ever had my temperature taken rectally. And to allay any fears they thought I might have had, was to say it wouldn’t hurt, nothing to be embarrassed about ( all patients had this done) and it won’t take long, and the clincher, it’s the most accurate way. Any similar experiences?

I usually replied I had it taken rectally to which the response was, good, then you know what to expect.
