The problem I have is that I can't raise my voice or anything for help and they didn't give me a nurse call button... so it was a case of wait until someone noticed and shut the curtains for me... they eventually did.  I was too sick obviously to move otherwise I would've tried to do it myself.  But sometimes I think the medical professionals don't give thought to how we feel in these situations.  I even pleaded once if I could please leave my bra on... nope it had to come off.</p></blockquote><p></p>
