Home EKG are now being done- what is next?

[Polishprince]

I was at the Pecker Checker this morning, and one of the traditions is for the doctor to shove his finger in the patient's keister to make sure his prostrate is still there. The procedure is called the DRE.

When will medical technology advance for people to get a medical quality DRE at home with an app? So someone sitting at home can have the piece of mind by shoving a cell phone in his own butt?

Not sure how old the tech is but PICC lines are kickass!!!
Without them I would have had to go to a hospital everyday for an hour for three months when I came down with a bad infection after hip surgery.

Just hook up the ball and put it in your pocket until it's empty.
