12string Posted October 23, 2017 Share #1 Posted October 23, 2017 with apologies to Loudon Wainwright......... Actually, the doctor said pretty much nothing. It's been about 8 years, so in for my annual physical. I wrote my name and birthdate about 200 times on papers I didn't read, stared at a pile of old magazines I didn't want to read, then got numbers for height, weight, blood pressure, heartrate that were pretty much the same numbers I get every time I donate blood. Either the my brain hasn't fallen out or the doctor was very good at masking her surprise while shining that light in my ear. Answered a couple questions that I already answered on all those papers, and answered for the nurse. Proclaimed healthy. Glad I didn't have to pay for that.

maddmaxx Posted October 23, 2017 Share #2 Posted October 23, 2017 Would you have been happier if the doc told you that you were sick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentonMakes Posted October 23, 2017 Share #3 Posted October 23, 2017 I am glad this doesn't apply to you! Well I went to the doctor, I said "I'm feelin' kinda rough" "Let me break it to you son - your shit's fucked up" I said "My shit's fucked up? Well I don't see how" He said "Your shit that used to work won't work now" 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have preferred something a little more intense that made me feel like the expertise of a doctor was required. I know, I watch TV, I'm the one who is supposed to tell the doctor if I'm having mild to severe joint pain now. And I do have to go back and give up enough blood for a Transylvanian Potluck and find someone to stick a camera up my butt. I just think it was kind of a waste of my and the doctor's time, it was a rather incomplete physical exam. Whatever, my employer is giving me $100 bucks and reducing my insurance payments $800 for that wasted hour. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Far Posted October 23, 2017 Share #7 Posted October 23, 2017 On the other end of that spectrum, when 2Far got his last echo, there was a trainee administering the test. LOL, she was kinda freakin' out until I told her "Yeah, there's a lot going into on in there. " 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
