日本の健康診断 Heath Checkups in Japan (Bilingual Captions)

[freedomwv]

I made the mistake with barium when I went for my 'Human Dock' checkup. No one warned me about it. All I can say is that it was a very uncomfortable train ride home.

[biggorou]

♂ですが、あなたの声大好きです・・・。今日もレポートしながら­一晩聞いてました。

[MrDekiruYo]

oh wow I laughed my ass off. If you handed them a cup with the alternative.... ahahahaha

[okamichamploo]

haha.The same thing happened to me, but luckily I had my keitai handy with it`s dictionary so I was able to check the meaning while I was in the bathroom

[dendekeden117]

hahahahaha

[rtsac25]

昔の太い胃カメラは地獄でしたね…

自分には辛過ぎて一週間ほど普通にご飯が食べられずに7kgくら­い体重が落ちました。

健康診断に行って不健康になってどうするんだと周りには笑われま­したが自分には笑い事ではなかったです…

あの経験以来自分もずっとバリウムにしています（笑）

[purple55shin]

コップの話、爆笑しました。

また、こういったデリケートで微妙な話を、伝える言葉、日本語英­語で表現されていた、貴方の心の中の声、とても勉強になります！

ところで、定期健康診断、女性には、さらに、透明な板で胸をはさ­まれる、乳がん検診Mammography もあります。これまた、恥ずかしくて辛いものですよ！

[carlosthepwner2]

Rofl sounds like a scene from the matrix.

[pontakun07]

LOL Shasei-saemon ni naranakute yokatta ;D

[geofg]

The 胃カメラ is way worse than the バリウム, though it is funny how they give you this stuff to fill you with gas and then tell you not to burp. I can still remember the nice nurse rubbing my back and telling me よし、よし while I gagged repeatedly and slobbered with tears pouring from my eyes while that tube was shoved deeper and deeper down my throat. Definitely in the top 10 of 大変な経験。Just discovered your channel, but this was quite funny.

[yehyeh22]

Wow... that's so thorough. I live in Canada and my checkups were nothing like that. My doctor would measure my height, weight, check my blood pressure, listen to my heart beats and breathing, look into my ears, nose, check my grip, and then apply some pressure onto my stomach (no clue why). It all sounds boring, eh? And I dread the flu shots but the camera sounds much worse!

[HIROKOCHANNEL]

超おもしろかったwまだ胃カメラやったことないけど、バリウムも­やだな〜。どっちもやだな！おつかれさま！

[junjap1988]

尿すごく面白かったですｗ

自分は血尿って言葉をケツ(尻)尿だと勘違いしてて恥ずかしい思­いをした事がありますｗ

[mfr0924]

彦左衛門さん、尿検査ですね。

良かったですね、間違ってなくて。

大腸の検査は仕方ないですね。

[twistB]

それ、医者のどっきりですよ！　決まってますｗ。

ところでバリウムでなんか異常が疑われたら、結局、胃カメラ

されることになっちゃいますよ。

[Koroodetto]

I like the cup story. I had the same experience of what do they want me to do with this cup? But I knew some Japanese words> so I said おしこ？　To which the nurse said はい！

[brentwithani]

that was a funny story..I am sure you know what がまんしる is..hey u went there, not me

[goshinbi44]

あのー、それは「がまんする」だね。（誤植でしたか？）

ヒコサエモン、その話はすごく面白。　病院で日本語知らないならばどうする？（僕の日本語は下手だから­）

[tr1tan]

Do they make you take a colonoscopy?

[hirofxjpy]

自分は大腸検査をでケツからカメラを入れたぞ！！！10～15分­の検査だった。検査の前に下剤を2リットル飲んで中身を全部出す­、トイレにいったのは8回くらい。最悪だった。

[thejakeyboi]

I think you should've given them a little sample of man juice in the cup and gone "Hai - dozou" hahahah

[029toniku]

大変そうだけど

面白かった

[topvalu]

such a funny story!! :)

[icybergie]

Japan's health checkup is basically the same as Singapore. I've been through the Barium method, it's definitely not as bad as the camera.

I've stayed off the camera so far and am intending to do so all my life. xD

[Dino2jp]

うぉ。日本語上手な外国の方みっけｗ

[junonijo]

Hello,

They have kenkou shindan at the universities too. They asked us to answer a weird questionnaire, where they asked us things like:" when and how do you thing you'll die?"

Pretty creepy.

[vidsinprogress]

Nyo, Nyo, Nyo...Got it...Health check-ups are an interesting topic in Japan.  Nice Vlog!

[Gimmeaflakeman]

You're right. Very nice look. You new camera seems to constantly be thinking about what to focus on ... did you do that on purpose? I think I want to try the stomach cam. Sounds interesting.

[Ido013]

Oh wow good thing you went with the most probable of the two last choices you had. I really would imagine them looking at your cup thinking you're some kind of pervert if you had done the other choice. Well thanks to you, I think I'll remember that unusual word lol

My gosh, I've hated both type of stomach exam! I can't stand feeling nauseated, I can't imagine having either the camera in or that Barium stuff...though I also think I'd go with the barium, I have high burping resistance lol.

[drhikarisan]

ive dealt with the barium before, at least if i remember correctly it was barium. They had to do an internal scan of my body and i had to drink some and they moved me around on a steel board of sorts. didnt have to drink some fizz medicine but i would definitely take the barium over the stomach cam. sounds like something you can go home and laugh about while the camera sounds like something you really want to forget.

[soromon29]

I had a stomach cam, it was awful, and you feel acid from stomach in your mouth for a long time, but thay can give you anaesthetic, so that you don;t feel so bad while the examination takes place!

[RisuMiso]

The last one I had was in Canada. The doctor didn't even care he asked me if I was okay, and I said yes. He asked me what colour a couple of pens he had were. He then told me to leave and billed my company. Good thing it was for work and not an actual problem.

For your thing, I would go with the barium I think... though I am comfortable putting a spoon in my nose.

One thing is Japanese people get vaccinated with a meat tenderizer. Look at their shoulders! Very odd.

[gripapple]

選択に失敗しなくてよかったですね

[warlordQ100]

We all had a medical at work.. They had a bus outside, and inside the bus, they had a normal X-Ray machine, a stomach CAT Machine, and a heap of other stuff.. Some people came out of the bus, looking a bit seedy.. When I got in there, this guy beside me, had to drink this white stuff.. Then I looked up and saw this guy being flung around all over the place.. When he got off, the doctor gave him a couple of pills.. By this time, my palms were really sweaty..

[MicknFumi]

LOL at the urine or sperm contemplation & getting shaken up like a martini...Easily my worst experience was after a kidney operation & having a capita (urine tube in chinko) removed. The nurse did not deflate the blow up thingo holding the tube in the bladder enough. So it hurt when she tried removing it, then finally deflated further. This must have caused swelling, preventing me from taking a piss for over 24hrs. I was incredibly uncomfortable as you could imagine.

[lostinxlation]

I guess your colleagues knowingly suggested you to do endoscoping... you were set up !!

I have done the barium thing in Japan long time ago. I drank some white stuff and they strapped me on the bed... and then that bed started going crazy... up and down, right to left, back and forth. I was like WTF!! Very unpleasant moves and had bloated feeling on stomach.

[JapanielGuerrera]

Oh man, your story explanations gave a good laugh lol And you made a good point.....what is my blood type? hmmm

[fabitapunk]

hahahaha that was sooo funny!! i really enjoy watch this video XD!!

i have had a lot of funny and curious situations at the doctor...and the funiest are when they give me anestecia (4 surgery) because i talk a lot and say stupid things like "the doctor is a bitch" or something like that hahahaha

My dad is a doctor so all are friends of him hahahahaha

[getoutofmyband]

Ahh before getting my gallbladder removed I had the stomach exam with the camera.. it wasn't fun but it wasn't as bad as I had imagined. I thought I would puke or be in pain after they removed the camera but I was totally fine. I hate drinking barium, i think i prefer the camera even though it's unpleasant.

[Hikosaemon]

Most people I asked were of the same opinion as you. Still, I suppose in comparison to the gallbladder removal, it really wouldn't have been all that big a deal. You're a lot tougher than me! ;)

Peace

[LEO11111111222211111]

If you put sperm or poo in the cup, your workmates would roll with laughter, I'll bet!

Well... Hiko-san, I think that the stomach camera is better. I also don't like the stomach camera. However, the stomach camera seem to be able to diagnose it precisely.

[Hikosaemon]

I agree, the stomach cam is a better exam for finding something, but for me, I guess I find it easier to deal with the barium.

Getting the "nyo" exam wrong would have made things pretty awkward around the office afterwards I think...

Peace

[LEO11111111222211111]

Thank you for response.

Hiko-san, Poo is Ben (便).

*^-')v Peace!

[lostinxlation]

I know that endoscoping in Japan is very painful since they don't give you unconscious sedation like they do in the US. But I heard they put the scope through your nose instead of your mouth nowadays to ease the pain.

[Hikosaemon]

Right, they give you a local, but you are awake. I have heard now they have versions thin enough to go through the nose which sounds better, although I'm sure it's still not completely pleasant. I was surprised to hear they knock you out completely in the US. Still, I'd probably prefer that myself.

Peace

[Yasmar89]

@Hikosaemon It's more dangerous to receive a general anaesthetic, however.

[habocha]

下の方のコメントに大腸内視鏡のことが書いてありましたが、私も­アレを経験して初めて大人になったなぁと思いましたよ。

あと、直腸触診（指でぐりぐり）も精神的に相当きつい。

[Hikosaemon]

ぎゃぁ、そんなんで大人になるんだったら、ならなくて良いような­気がしますね・・・！

昔盲腸の手術で似たような経験をして、あまり思い出さないように­しようとしています。

そりゃきついですよね。

Peace

[ImAlwaysR1ght]

You should have given all "3 choices" in one cup... You'd give them a story to tell for the rest of their lives.

[Hikosaemon]

Haha. It would be funny, but the story would have ended "...and then we called the police..."

Peace

[asdlmaolol]

Hahahaha funny story. I got a question though, during the "stomach camera exam" (endoscopy?) were you awake the whole time? cause, i had one of those once and they injected me anesthetics, i was supposed to be sleeping during the exam, but i woke up choking with the damn camera, the nurse screaming "Swallow! Swallow! don't cough!" it was awful and my throat hurt for days. I wish i knew there was an alternative method back then.

Thank got they didn't ask you for a Colonoscopy haha.

Cya.

[Hikosaemon]

In Japan, so far as I know, you stay awake through the whole thing, and my experience was very much like yours. They make you drink a gooey substance as a local anaesthetic for your throat, but then it is all focussing on letting the thing pass down and not resisting or thinking about it.

They were nice enough to put a tv monitor in front of me showing my the whole thing as I lay on my side drooling. Truth be told, I would have preferred not to look...

Peace

[Degenskonto]

Lol'd.

Atleast Barium sounds more badass than being violated by a camera

[Hikosaemon]

Haha, the Barium is kinda badass in its own way. I didn't go into a lot of detail about the great white tidal wave that comes about four hours after the exam...

[Degenskonto]

Just as long the tidalwave go the backdoor im fine with it....

[moolikeachicken]

XD this video was hilarious!! Oh my...The whole time you were talking about giving your "nyo sample" I was saying aloud "no!! please give them urine!" hahaha!

Anyway, wow! Talk about thorough! o.o! I would NEVER do that stomach camera if there was an alternative *shudder* You're the man for doing it!

[Hikosaemon]

I really wasn't sure at first what to do about the sample. I kept flashing back to that scene from the movie The Right Stuff where the test pilots are all sent off to toilet cubicles...

The stomach cam is heavy going my friend. Hard to recommend, but I guess I'll do it again if it is to help assess a problem that is actually found, but not for a checkup ;)

Peace

[Dino2jp]

前夜から飲まず食わずで、血たっぷり抜いて、バリウム検査しての­コースはキツイですよねーｗ

大腸の内視鏡検査を大学病院で受けると、若い女子インターン７人­くらいに囲まれて、先生が下からカメラをズボッと　（＠＿＠）　・・・いわゆる喪失感と、エイリアンが腸に住んでる異様な気分。­おすすめですｗ

[Hikosaemon]

ゲゲー！

大腸の検査が必要だったらしょうがないけど、健康診断の一般検査­としては大変きつそうですね。

しかも、若い女性インターン7人の前だし・・・（笑）

すごいww

Peace

[runnyrunny999]

白いもの（爆）。 へたすりゃ捕まるよ。

そいや健康診断は彼是8年くらいやってない俺は大丈夫なのだろう­か。

[Hikosaemon]

8年？！

それもすごいね～

でもマラソンとかで健康そうだけどね。

でもやっぱりたまに行くのは良い事だと、俺も納得していますよ。

是非、胃検査も、やってみてね！ww

Peace

PS - パートナーになって、おめでとう！

[uki4313]

面白いことなのかはわからいないですが、

身長は毎年伸びたり縮んだり・・そしてまた伸びてたり不思議です­。

もしかしたら計るときにちょっと間違ったのかな？とか思ってたり­。

168から170になって、そして169になって...

もしかしたらメモリ見る人によって見方が違うのかな・・・。

[Hikosaemon]

爆笑！

俺も来日した99年には18.5cmだったのに、この間は18.­4cmでした。後１０mmでまだ185cmって言えるのに！！！

悔しぃ！ww

ね、本当に縮んでいるみたよ。

どうしよう～？

Peace

[furetosan]

実際は一日の途中でも身長が変わるんだ。朝早くついに起き、すぐ­身長を計れば背が高くなったって結果が出る。一日間は重力の所為­で身長が縮んでしまう。

[hikkiy69]

すごーく面白かったです。

日本人の感覚では当たり前だけど・・。

そうなのかぁ～ｗｗ。

[Hikosaemon]

うん、やっぱり異文化経験って色々あるんですよww

でも、そうやって、毎日が倍で面白いですよ♪

Peace

[MrJingjong]

I like the filter you're using, whatever it is.

[Hikosaemon]

Hehe, it's cool, isn't it? It is a burn effect that comes in the New Blue package with Corel VideoStudio X2. I was playing around with filters and liked this one.

Peace

[sakuraga0ka]

It is so true that Japanese examine practically everything when you get a check up. I had a check up a while ago in Japan and I was surprised as to how many examinations I had done in a day. In the U.S., I would have to go to several offices to finish my exams.

[Hikosaemon]

Yep, you have to give credit to the Japanese - they really are thorough and take this stuff seriously.

Peace

[adakkochan]

OMG! I laughed so hard! Thanks for your funny stories. When I got medical checkup, a doctor put her finger into my asshole. But I still don't know what she checked... What was that for??

[Hikosaemon]

OUCH!!!

[furetosan]

Prostate, probably. but maybe the doctor just fancied you.

[adakkochan]

mmmm interesting! I don't have any prostate.. haha

[furetosan]

Well then, he/she fancied you.

[adakkochan]

Thanks for your sweet words!

[jeffhardyhotmail]

nice

[Hikosaemon]

Hehe, glad you liked it ;)

Peace

[jeffhardyhotmail]

no problem

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

Nice job.

Do you know what percentage of your subscribers are Japanese?

[Hikosaemon]

Thanks man. Of course most of my viewers are in Japan, but it seems to be a mix. It was of course easier to tell on the old channel design whether my viewers were Japanese native speakers or not - now it is near impossible. But I think it is about 50/50. Japanese are shy to comment but leave nice messages.

Peace

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

Yes, the new channel design sucks.

Frustrating when companies take something that is good and replace it with something that is not.

I guess it must save them space/money or something.

Sho ga nai.

[Hikosaemon]

I'm not against the new design - I like the player, and I hope they'll put back the option to have modules showing thumbnails of uploads and favorite vids that showcase who we are a bit. Here's hoping!

Peace

[furetosan]

Shouga aru yo!

We have to let them know the new stuff sucks.
