Re: Left-handed VEs

Ditto, I cannot make head nor tail of anything if I have to stand on the woman's left hand side, it is like trying to read something in another language. I have tried writing with my left hand, but it is like being back at primary school again, slow loops of letters, tongue poking out in concentration, ok for writing but not a good look if you are doing a VE!!!

I would never be able to use my left hand for VEs and still have to palpate from the woman's right! Angela
