That seems rather insensitive to me. I mean, if the patient jokes

glad he's nice in other ways, at least!
Maybe he meant to make it less gross or scary to Tweed.
It isn't. It makes my colleagues feel sick to hear it squelching
and it makes *me* feel sick to know that they hate it when I can't
do anything about it.
I would hate to feel self-concious about something like that! I
actually think that your workmates shouldn't have said anything to
you about it, since you obviously can't help it. That's pretty rude,
IMO.
They probably didn't say anything about it. I was mortified by the
side effects of my belly issues (that I now know were Crohn's
symptoms), and it didn't matter that no one said a word. *I* knew.
It almost would have made it better if someone had said something.
