To say that I am easily startled is a gross understatement. On occasion I have been so startled it has caused my shoulder to dislocate. That's actually one of the reactions the body has when electrocuted.
Yesterday during a serious moment on rounds while I was presenting a patient to the attending, a giant fly sat on my notes and I mistook it for my arch nemesis the spider species and threw my papers away from myself and actually screamed a little.
My attending thought I was dying and although I tried to explain I thought it was a spider, he pretty much not only thinks I am dumb as a door but now also a complete idiot.
