Is it just me or as a nurse do you find that everyone wants to talk you about their bowel movements? I work in dialysis which has nothing to do with GI health at all but I feel that I must have a sign on my forehead that asks "How are your bowels moving this week?" My patients come in, say good morning, and immediately dive right in to their constipation, diarrhea, immodium, and laxative issues. Why me? They feel free to burp in my face and think it's ok because they said excuse me. What is up with this? Just venting :-)
