Do certain medical/health terms make you want to faint?

Female circumcision... *Shudders*

That is not medical term, it is a form of abuse.

My cousin is very queasy when ever talking about anything medical. I am fine talking about most medical terms. I showed my slightly bent little fingers and that makes him uneasy.

While I agree that it is a horrible thing, (hence the shudder), female genital mutilation is technically a medical term.

I know people who faint when actual medical acts are performed on them (usually involving needles), but it's the first time I've heard about someone who get these symptoms simply reading about medical terms...

I know.

Ever have a bad injury to your hands, or seen a bad injury to someone another's hands?

No. I don't mind seeing things. I've seen worse.

Bast, you are the only person in the world who still gets the vapours.

I belong in the world of Jane Austen.

I hate watching operations and stuff on TV. Maybe I'd faint if I saw it in real life. I dunno though nothinghas ever made me faint, nor have I felt at any point I was about to faint because of seeing something.
