Ultrasound experiences

I had testicular ultrasound before and I almost got a semi

Had one of these, as far as I know there was no trace of an erection. I was in enough pain that I was pretty out of it, though - on the plus side I certainly wasn't worried about being embarrassed (tech told me afterwards: WHY aren't you taking something? You have the pills with you - take them!). Good news - doctor said it doesn't have to be repeated now that I'm probably going to do something about my varicocele. It didn't hurt, but this time I'm feeling much better and more likely to be uncomfortable at the prospect.

When I broke my leg I had a test where a female tech using a probe on my leg to locate blood clots. Three times she moved the probe up my thigh and scanning my groin area. I felt the probe touching my balls and moving them side to side. It felt embarrassing and cold. .

I've had a couple of ultrasounds. But the one I remember most was a testicular ultrasound. I had been having scrotal discomfort and my female doctor examined my penis and testicles quite extensively. She then ordered a testicular ultrasound as an additional diagnostic. I had a female tech administer the testicular ultrasound. She was young and cute. That ultrasound was about 20 minutes long and I was fully exposed during the ultrasound. It was a little painful but I got through it. I was diagnosed with excess testicular fluid.

I thoroughly enjoyed these CFNM medfet experiences. Both my doctor and the med tech were totally professional.

I go to the checkup every two years. In particular, the abdomen is also examined and measured by ultrasound. Among other things, the abdominal artery, kidneys, spleen, liver, bladder and prostate. While I lie on the lounger, pull the top up to the sternum and the pants I have to open slightly and pull down to the pubic hair. It is already a cool feeling when the cold gel and the sensor head on the skin is felt. Find it exciting if you see your own organs on the monitor.

I did have one abdominal ultra sound. I had a female tech do the procedure. The apparatus did not readily slide up my vagina and she had to push really hard to get it in. Her twisting and turning it made me very hot. When it was over I was so frustrated because I couldn't get any release. I also hope that if it has to be done again I get a male tech.

Just had U/S of my head, carotids, eco cardiogram, EEG, EKG, due to recent T.I.A.

Out of hospital. Tired and sleeping a lot. They confirmed I also had C. Diff. and put me on Vancomycin oral caps. Have to see cardiologist for Holter monitor next.

I had an ultrasound of my bladder once in the hospital when I woke up from surgery. A nurse did it to determine if she needed to catheterize me. She did...

I had three scans in the past couple of weeks.

One Doppler and Two Abdominal Ultrasounds. But thankfully all the three were clear.

It was on two different incidents.

Two weeks back I suddenly got terrible upper abdomen pain. So after examining my abdomen Dr asked to get ultrasound done. I was really in very bad pain and wished that I could get sedative even for such a simple non-invasive procedure.

Since the pain was in the upper side on the left, the sonography technician had to press more in that region. But this was making me breathless as I was holding my breath due to additional pain. Sonography was clear so the Dr got done a Doppler scan assuming that blood vessels around the area got constricted. (Obviously this couldn't happen suddenly but we had to agree as the Dr was genuinely trying.)

Though her this hunch was also thankfully negative.

In all that night I was scanned for 1.5 hours.

Ultimately it turned out to be idiopathic pain.

I had another ultrasound recently when I got bladder spasms. Doctor wanted to check if I had developed bladder or kidney stones but it was clear.

I've had 2 heart ultrasounds(echocardiograms) to check the origin of a murmur and also an abdominal ultrasound as part of a thorough examination to verify if I have hypertension. Also had another type of ultrasound as a teenager.

I've had two echocardiograms done in my late teens/early 20s. The first was to evaluate a new heart murmur my doctor heard, and the other was for tachycardia that I had a few years after. A cardiologist reviewed it later on and deemed it to be Mitral Valve Prolapse (and mild regurgitation). The ultrasound for tachycardia was otherwise normal.

My new doctor doesn't think the murmur is of any concern, so he's never had me get one.

I had an abdominal ultrasound last year. it felt pretty uncomfortable the whole time and tge tech had me push out my belly the whole time.

When I had my twins . I was very high risk for miscarriage. So I had ultrasound every two weeks and once a week 30 weeks on .

(I felt at points like asking the cleaning lady hey come on over and take a look everyone else has ) But alas it was cold gel for the vaginal ultrasound as for standard belly ultrasound not very pleasant.

I've had 2 ultrasounds in my life.

First time I was 13 and I was getting a bladder ultrasound. I remember the tech had me climb up on the bad and asked me lift up my shirt. I lifted my shirt and he placed the cold jelly on my stomach and then began the ultrasound. I don't remember it being uncomfortable at all. If anything it was kinda relaxing. After a while, he asked me if it was ok if I pull my shorts down so he can examine my lower bladder. So I undid my shorts zipper and pulled them down a little. He turned back around and he smiled and said 'Oops, I'm meant these too" (referring to my underpants). So he grabbed the waistband of my underwear and pulled them down to about my knees. I remember at this time too a female tech had walked in right when my shorts were down and she gave me a quick smile, grabbed what she needed and walked back out. I didn't even realize the whole time, the door was open. But not like anyone walked by from what I could tell. Then the main tech continued his exam, then gave me a towel to wipe off the jelly when we were done.

Second time, I had I had to get an abdominal ultrasound when I was having really sharp pain in my stomach. The tech was female and she had take off my shirt and put on an front-open gown. I put the gown on and laid on the table. I remember the gown being so loose that it was pretty much wide open and pretty much my entire torso was exposed during the whole ultrasound. Again, nothing uncomfortable, she was pretty gentle.

About two years ago at my annual physical, during the genital exam, the young female physician's assistant discovered a small, painful lump on my right testicle (in the epididymis). I had not noticed it before, but when she found it I about jumped through the roof from pain. She had asked how long it had been like that and I told her that I hadn't noticed it or experienced any discomfort prior to the exam. She felt both testicles as gently as she could, but each time she felt the nodule on my right testicle it caused me to jump. Needless to say, we were both concerned, although she told me not to worry until we learned more. She then said that she was going to go get a physician to come consult/advise and left me sitting on the exam table naked - although she did give me a drape to cover my lap.

About 15 minutes later, there was a soft knock at the door and the PA came back in with a female doctor, I'd guess in about her mid 40s. The PA explained what had occurred earlier in the exam and the doctor asked a few questions. She then told me to remove the drape and stand up. She sat on the stool that the PA had used earlier for the exam, and the PA pulled up a plastic chair. The doctor examined my right testicle, and then my left - but didn't find the nodule. She then asked the PA to show her.

So, here I am, standing naked with two women - medical professionals, but still attractive, strange women that I had just met - examining my testicles. The PA took my right testicle in her hand and within about a second and a half found the nodule and made me jump and wince in pain. The doctor then felt, and couldn't find it (seriously). So the PA found it again and the doctor placed her fingers next to the PA's and followed her path until she found the nodule - so first he PA made me wince and then the doctor. The doctor - who was much less gentle than the PA - then felt my left testicle in the same area, and then the right. Once she had found the nodule, she didn't have any issue finding it again.

She and the PA stepped back and consulted, then came back and they both felt the nodule again. Then the doctor and PA both left the room (without telling me to sit, cover up, get dressed or anything. About 5 minutes later the PA came back in to explain what they thought they had found. She found the nodule again and had me feel it. Then she had me feel my left testicle for comparison.

She then explained that it could be any number of things, from a benign growth to a hydrocele to epididymitis something more serious. She explained each in a little bit of detail and told me that they would send me for an ultrasound so that they could figure out what was going on. She told me that I could get dressed and that she would write up the order for the testicular utlrasound. When I had dressed and left the exam room they told me that they had an opening for me for the ultrasound the next afternoon.

So, the next day I show up about 20 minutes early for my appointment and they take me back as soon as my paperwork was done.

A male nurse took me back to the exam room and told me to get completely undressed from the waist down and to lay down on the table. He gave me a folded towel and told me to lay my penis up on my belly and cover it with the towel, and then to cover myself with the drape, and that the ultrasound tech would be in shortly. Actually, I had hoped that he was the tech, but, well, no.

I did as instructed and lay on the table for about 10 minutes before there was a knock on the door and a young lady wearing in her mid-to-late 30s wearing pink scrubs came in and introduced herself and said that she would be my ultrasound tech. She said that there would be another tech who was just out of school would be observing. Almost as if on cue, there was a soft knock on the door and the other tech came in - a young woman who looked to be in her early 20s. I thought to myself, well, in for a penny, in for a pound.

The first tech explained the procedure and said that they would not be able to provide any diagnosis. The images would be sent to the senior radiologist there who would consult with my referring doctor. She said that it would only be about 10-15 minutes and we'd be done.

She then asked me if I was ready and I nodded yes. I was laying flat on the table in the darkened room and the tech pulled my drape down to my knees. At this point, I'm wearing a shirt, have a towel over my pubic area covering my penis which is laying up toward my belly. From the top of my scrotum to my knees, I'm completely exposed, and the drape is covering my knees and feet.

The tech explained "I'm going to apply some gel so that we can get a good image. It's not cold, in fact, we keep it here in a warmer." She asked me if I was ready and I said "yes" and she squirted some gel onto my testicles. Admittedly, it was pleasantly warm. The tech told me "you'll feel some pressure, but please try to stay still, even if there is some momentary discomfort."

For the next 5 - 10 minutes (or so it seemed) she slid the ultrasound wand all around my right testicle - up, down, and side-to-side. Once or twice the muttered something to the observing tech and pointed out something on the screen. They kept going back and forth with the wand, applying slight pressure - which was only mildly uncomfortable. After about 5 more minutes, they applied some more gel and spent some time with the wand at the top of my right testicle, following the tube up until it entered my abdomen.

After a bit, the tech got up and said "I'm going to go get the radiologist on duty - nothing to worry about." She got up and left but the younger tech - the observed stayed. After a couple of minutes the observing tech asked me if I was warm enough - now, I'm still exposed from the top of my scrotum to my knees - and I say, "yeah, I'm a little cold" thinking that she'd cover me up. Instead, she placed a blanket over my feet and lower legs.

A couple of minutes later, there is a soft knock at the door and the first tech comes back in followed by an African-American woman, probably in her mid-60s and wearing a white lab coat. The three of them gather around the screen and mutter lowly so I can't hear what they are saying. After a minute or two, the woman in the white lab coat picks up the ultrasound wand and, rather forcefully, slides it up my right testicle, focusing on the epididymis, and traces the tube up to where it enters my abdomen. She then retraces her path and, for the first time during the procedure, hits the nodule that was the object of the exam. Of course, this is unexpected and makes me jump and wince.

There is not apology, only a "please try to stay still. This will be over in a minute"

True to her word, she runs the wand for maybe another 30-45 seconds, hands it back to the tech, tells her something and leaves the room.

The tech apologizes and runs the wand over my testicle one more time, this time finding the nodule - although not with as much force as the woman and in the lab coat. She spends about a minute getting images, showing the observe both on the screen, and on my scrotum, where the nodule is. She then removed the little plastic bag cover from the wand and put it back in its holder and told me that the procedure was over. She handed me a towel so that I could clean up the excess gel (which, by this time was over both thighs and had run up the crack of my ass).

She told me that I could get dressed and that I should wait for someone to come get me and lead me out.

So, a long story about my last ultrasound.

Turns out it was a hydrocele - they say nothing to worry about and that it should resolve by itself. That was two years ago and I still have some discomfort, but I'm thankful that it wasn't anything more serious.

It was also a procedure that provides a very vivid memory for all of the reasons that I now know is why I love my medfet!

In my Annual Physical I have my abdominal ultrasound done. Though I always want all my reports to be normal but it's also a fact that I like abdominal ultrasound. The feeling of the gel and then the transducer on my abdomen is what I like. I don't get to see the screen though. I haven't seen my organs on screen.

Generally these scans are routine and normal however once a funny incident happened in the initial years.

As I lay on the scan table and the technician started the scan he said you have had too much water. Your are too full. It's strange we have to tell people they haven't had enough water to have a full bladder and to you I will have to tell to empty your bladder. Go use the washroom once.

Only once I was back from the washroom, he started the scan properly. I had difficulty in controlling my bladder but I didn't I was so full.

Another time someone walked in. It wasn't a pleasant experience.

Once I even felt aroused but that's another story.

I had an ultrasound scan of my testicles, bladder and kidneys. When I entered the small examination room there was a doctor sitting at a desk, a nurse and an examination couch hidden behind a curtain. I was asked to lie on the examination couch and the curtains were drawn. I was then asked to lower my trousers and underpants to my ankles and then shout ok when I was ready. The doctor then entered and after coating my genitals with a gel he performed the ultra sound scan. At one stage he asked me to lift my penis out of the way. The whole process was very professional and I did not have an erection.

I am having a esophageal ultrasound of my heart in a few weeks. I am not looking forward to it but I suppose they will deaden my throat and give me some propofol before they start.

Rule #1 : It sucks to get old

@Moppys_jalopy Good luck. Hope You come out of it with a ? from the test.

Rule #2: It takes guts to get old!

They use Doppler ultrasound to measure blood velocity to determine vascular constrictions like vasospasms

@ moppy good luck with the test and praying for good results.

@Moppys_jalopy if it's like the upper gi I got a few years ago they knock you out cold. Good Luck.

@ Moppy_jalopy I hope all goes well in your ultrasound! And I hope it gives your doctor the information he needs to give you the best medical care! I am personally very thankful for a medical team that is able to stay on top of medical options for me via varied treatments and tests.

I had to do an ultrasound of the arteries, I was lying on my back, shirtless. The doctor told me he had to end with the femoral arteries. I lowered my trousers while keeping my underwear, I knew it was not necessary to remove it entirely to access the groins. The doctor took a piece of paper and slipped it under the waist band to protect the garment. He then lowered the briefs, I helped him by lifting the buttocks. He was thus able to place the probe.

I've had a number of ultrasounds in the last few years, at one point I had pretty high blood pressure, and after getting it down with meds, I had an echocardiogram done. Ive also had 2 more since that initial, plus an ultrasound of my kidneys. I also had one for an infection on my back.

Honestly can't say I got a great kick out of them, because they press down so hard sometimes, it doesn't feel super great. Especially when they were scanning this infected area on my back, it was already pretty painful and any pressure there hurt. That being said the process of exposing myself on some level (all of these scans are done shirtless) is always kind of fun, and initially the cool jell when the scanner is run lightly/medium strength across and area, it actually feels pretty good. But if they have to press down to focus in on an area thats when I gets kind of annoying for me.

I am having a esophageal ultrasound of my heart in a few weeks. I am not looking forward to it but I suppose they will deaden my throat and give me some propofol before they start.

Rule #1 : It sucks to get old

You have a heart? 😮

You have a heart? 😮

It's made of coal and ice!

@Moppys_jalopy Cold and Blackheart, well they should be able to find it quite easily... ?

So I had the ultrasound which I found out was to look for blood clots before they shocked me. I had a team of 7 women from doctor and anesthesiologist to nurses and technicians. They put classic rock on the radio then put me under. They accomplished their objectives of getting me back in rythm and I was mightily impressed with their professional performance. I salute them. I also had a lot of fun yanking their chains like giving them the wrong name and telling them I was still awake although it wasn't for long. They dished it as well as they took it. A great experience at UCLA.

Hey @Moppys_jalopy , so glad it went well and your back to normal, well your normal anyway!! ? Keep that ticker in shape!
