To wonder why, if you are too embarrassed to see your Dr, why on earth would you want to go on TV?

[penelopestitsdropped]

If you can't get your piles out in a small room with just you and your family GP, what on earth are you doing going on national TV?

and why, if you start getting warts and tumors all over your body do you not go to see your GP? Why wait until you are covered in them and they are the size of footballs before you think about getting them sorted out?

I just don't understand the desire to get your most personal problems discussed by the nation.

No, they do NOT get paid. See above post. They get expenses on receipt of receipts and they'll get their lunch etc paid for (and a cheapy hotel if necessary) but that's it.

Insider knowledge.

you could pass him a note

TheFoosa - if you're really that interested I could PM you his phone number! Or I could put a note in his pigeon hole for you....

Dr - how was your fanko op?

woman - yeah it was great
Dr - can i see?

Woman - yes please, i would love to flash my gash for the 14th time. i think there is a person in stratford that has yet to see my fanjo and we can't have that now can we

attention seeking weirdo's if you ask me

wow at Tumor man post op

no you're alright

How on earth would you go into work/drop kids off at school/be seen in public ever again if you'd just shown your labia to the whole TVworld???????

Most embarassing had to be the bloke who thought he had some form of incontinence and was embarrassed about smelling of shit all the time. Turned out he just wasn't wiping his arse properly. I mean - if it takes a telly programme to show you how to wipe your own bum...

The whole thing baffles me. If I had a condition for years that caused me so much embarassment I hadn't shown anyone, I certainly wouldn't be showing the viewing public never mind the the camera crew etc!
I couldn't leave the house again, let alone go to work if my ladybits had been on national tv.
That said, my heart went out to the man with the tumours, kinda puts things in perspective.

I expect you'd get free surgery if you went on the show.

They had a girl a while back who had stretchmarks on her tummy and was mortified by them. No idea why - mine are far worse.

She had them 'lasered'.

I too find it odd. Especially inverted nipple lady who hadn't even shown her own partner. I asked my bloke who said if you really liked someone the no way would that bother him. I imagine most blokes are the same.

Maybe they'll just do anything to ge on t'telly!

it's probably a quick way to get the operation they need. Just like people who go the JK show really. They get the support they need without having to wait years on the NHS.

Personally I would rather gouge my eyes out than go on JK or Embarrassing Bodies.
