ORIGINAL: DavanKael I read one pivotal word incorrectly, so I am editing. Public or private nose beeping would worry me. I have a perforated septum and once went to this very mean doctor who took great glee in shoving a wooden-handled q-tip through my nose (Yeah, went in one side, came out the other; not cool!) to illustrate when he informed me of the issue and then accused me of "snorting drugs" while the damn q-tip was still through my nose (I think he had in mind to punish me). I told him I don't snort drugs and that if I did, I'd proudly say so 'cause I would, that's just me. He still didn't believe me but told me that if I didn't let him repair it, my nose could 'fall down'. I have since researched and found that perforated septums are very, very common and can be caused by lots and lots of things and most never require any intervention. I must admit, though, his telling me my nose could "fall down" really freaked me out, so I am more protective of it. Thus, I would either have to tell a partner that it was a limit or, very nervously, ask for only gentle nose beeping. So, beore beeping, you may wish to inquire about septal stability. I celebrate your right to 'nose beep' anyone who will consent to your doing so. Happy nose beeping! :> Davan A bit off topic, but I had a similar experience back in '02 when I had to visit the Emergancy Room to due a very nasty allergic reaction to some nail glue I'd been using. I was repeatedly told by several nurses and doctors that the ONLY way my hands could have gotten in that condition was because of heavy methamphetmine use (which is the big drug of choice in my hometown). I eventually told them to take a blood test, which of course, came out negative. It was a frustrating visit. On topic, I think having my nose beeped would mostly draw a quizzical and confused "Huh?" out of me.
