Doctors Blog About the Weirdest Stuff They've Removed From Patients

From Gizmodo:

Sermo, a members-only website for doctors, asked its doctor users to post about the strangest things they had ever pulled out of their patients. Then, they published some of the weirdest on their public blog. They are very weird, and probably mentally not safe for work. Here are some noteworthy ones, in ascending order of how much they disturbed me:

Allergist & Immunologist:
I once retrieved a plastic helicopter from a child's nose.

General Surgeon:
5 pens, 2 permanent markers, 3 straws, 2 toothbrushes, 4 Oreo cookie wrappers. All at the same time from the stomach of a patient.

Urologist:
At our hospital recently the general surgeons removed from the stomach a bound and gagged barbie doll that the patient had swallowed.

Pathologist:
Large zucchini (rectum). The spiral from a spiral-bound notebook (male urethra). Pencil (male urethra). Cigarette lighter (stomach).

I'm used to biting the heads off gingerbread men, but this is a little different. My boyfriend surprised me with this chocolate dick he brought back from San Francisco. How romantic!

Chris thought it was funny and my mom thought it was hilarious. Me? I'm a bit unsure. I mean it's not just unappetizing it's actually intimidating. The picture doesn't really do it justice. This thing is THICK!

Sadly, I know chocoholic in me will prevail and I'll end up melting it into an edible shape and eating it.

I thought I'd share this disgusting bacon cake photo I just found.

After learning about Baconnaise from the Daily Show, then bacon salt, I began to wonder about what other bacon products were out there. I'm disgusted and amazed. There's everything from bacon themed clothes to bacon personal lubricant. Yuck!
