Ok. I don't know if this is me being totally paranoid or what but this just caught me a little off guard so I thought I would ask about this.
I got really sick the day before yesterday and have been really out of it for the past two days. So this morning I was feeling really sick and my dad brought me to the doctor, we left right after I got up and I went in my PJs and no bra.
So they did the normal thing at the doctors office, but I saw a doctor I don't normaly see. And he did the normal thing and he took my pulse with the thesascope (sp?)on my back then he did it on my front under my shirt which no doctor has ever done to me and he put his hands right under my breasts, and he like held them there a little longer then it takes to take a pulse and no doctor has ever done that either (except like once when I got a pysical). So when he did that it caught me off guard (he wasn't wearing gloves or anything)(and it was only me and him is the room, no nurses)
Also, when he was taking my blood pressure, he like kept his hand right on my breast when he was holding my arm.
I don't know if I am being paranoid but I really don't think so because no other doctor (male or female) has ever taken my pulse in the front, under my shirt, and done that (keep in mind I had on no bra) and no other doctor has had to rest their hand on my breast when taking my blood pressure....
I would like to know what some of you think, if I am just crazy or if your doctors do this?
Thanks for any advice or opinions.

sdog1205 answered Sunday May 22 2005, 8:58 pm: That doesn't sound normal to me. I've never had a doctor do that to me before. You should tell your dad about it. You're not being paranoid there is something wrong with that. You need to tell your dad or someone.
fall_to_pieces answered Sunday May 22 2005, 1:25 pm: you need to tell your dad what the doctor did. or tell someone.
docotrs usually do not do that for blood pressure excpet maybe at physical which doesn't happen often there anyway.
definently tell someone that get that doctor out of there. [ fall_to_pieces's advice column | Ask fall_to_pieces A Question ]
SeXy101 answered Sunday May 22 2005, 2:20 am: o wow... i really think you need to say something to your parents... it might be serious but you never know... maybe he was just trying to get a good check up to make sure you were alright but it still kind of seems scary... if you dont want to tell them about it (because the doctor will probably deny the whole thing if they file a case or something) just tell them to NEVER go to that doctor again!!!
hope i helped [ SeXy101's advice column | Ask SeXy101 A Question ]
MelSP answered Saturday May 21 2005, 11:14 pm: definitely say something to your mom or dad...cause stuff like this can put people into jail for sexual harrassment, even thought he was just "doing his job" he might of been taking longer and enjoing his job a lot more with you [ MelSP's advice column | Ask MelSP A Question ]
