(101,715 posts)1. I dream about an air-cooled head-to-toe suit-- along the lines of Ebola protection

(66,093 posts)2. When I was doing my surgical rotation, I got to wear a 'space-suit' when
assisting in some complex orthopedic procedures, or on an HIV patient, or what have you.
It was a dream. I don't suffer from claustrophobia (as an ex-tank crewman, natch...) and the faceplate never fogged up, thanks to the air being piped in.

Glasses, masks with ear loops, and goggles all at once have the backs of my ears screaming "Take this crap OFF!" after about 2 hours.
The extra layer of eye protection makes looking thru otoscopes and ophthalmoscopes damn near impossible.
