I posted in Health and Wellness under my Prednisone thread how the rest of the appt. went. He's a winner, that's for sure.

I'll take a peek over there then.

I just realized it's not my thread, but I have posted on it so many times, I adopted it.

My personal all time favorite doctor story goes back to a visit where I was having a yearly exam that included the exam that women like the least. I know my physician and his nurse quite well because I am also in healthcare. They left the room briefly so I could undress and ready myself for that part of the exam. Before re-entering the exam room, they gave a quick knock on the door and he said, "Open up, it's the FBI!". Needless to say, I laughed through the rest of the exam.

That's cute. I had a doc who told me his latest scuba diving adventures while doing that exam.

I just thought it was funny and weird to be talking about how deep he went and what he saw down there, while he was "down there." Smiley Happy

I like that story Marien! It's an awkward exam to begin with and I appreciate that they try to distract you from what's happening.

This whole thing went right over my head I guess, because I don't even understand the doctor's comment and/or see what's so funny about it.

I was having orthoscopic surgery on my knee, and the anesthesiologist came in (it was early in the morning.) He said, "I just had a margarita. Want one?" I guess I looked funny because he said, "just kidding." So I said "after this is over, we'll both go get one."
