…so I went to the doctor today. All done.

Sorry, forgot to take pictures. It is hard for old dogs to learn new tricks. grin

Dear Bill

Nothing serious I hope? I hope he found you well and not with anything "interesting."

I once had a doctor tell my wife when viewing her MRI's of her back "When the doctor says 'interesting' it's never good for the patient."

For a second, I thought you'd forgotten what site you were on.

I hope all is well with you.

If not, think of a good headstone (bear with me on this one).

Spike Milligan CBE KGB (see Goons and more) had, in Irish, "I told you I was ill" on his headstone. A very funny man.

Two things you don't want to hear from your doctor:

1. Whoops.

2. I don't know.

Tgerritsen Supporting Member of TMP28 May 2015 1:00 p.m. PST

I'd add to that…

3. Oh my god!

I had a doctor do that to me when I had a bad leg infection. Didn't make me feel very good.

A man is called rather late in the evening by his doctor. "I am sorry to say I have two messages, a bad one and a very bad one". "Well" the man answers, "tell me, I have to know !". "Well", the doctor says, "You know we did a large examination and I have received the result: you have only 24 hours to live !". "OMG" the man responds, "What then was the very bad news ?". "Well", the doctor tells him, "I am very sorry but it was so very busy yesterday, I plump forgot to call you !".

Perhaps this was the fourth thing…

"When the doctor says 'interesting' it's never good for the patient."

Not true! When I woke up in the recovery room after carpal tunnel release surgery, the surgeon told me, "We found something very interesting. You have an extra layer of muscle on your palm and we've never encountered that before. We took pictures and we'd like your permission to submit them to the Somethingabob Journal."

"Am I devolving or evolving?"

"Too soon to tell."

"Sure, go ahead."

I'm not really fond of the doc saying, "Now I don't want you to panic, but…"
I got one of those at my most recent physical.

Reminds me of one of my favorite horoscopes from The Onion:

"The good news this week is that you will soon have a disease named after you."

Patient went to see the results of all his tests. The Doctor looked over his chart and said, "I have very bad news. Nothing can be done, you haven't got long to live".

The Patient, shocked asked "How Long, Doctor?"

The Doctor took a deep breath and said "10, maybe".

"Ten what, Months??"

"Nine"….

I may have read that joke hear-my mind is a sieve.

Hey! I have photos of of my left big toe that was amputated. 'Bout 3 weeks ago. Before and after. LOL

Nothing serious I hope?

Just the annual complete physical. She wants me to take magnesium supplements…

wrgmr128 May 2015 4:19 p.m. PST

Magnesium is always good for muscles and elimination.

Hey! I have photos of of my left big toe that was amputated. 'Bout 3 weeks ago. Before and after. LOL

Pictures of the foot or the toe? An after picture of the foot would be creepy. An after picture of the toe would be REALLY creepy.

Robert Kennedy28 May 2015 7:19 p.m. PST

Yup. The toe before was creepy. But the before only shows the bandage. Looks like one of those thumbs in the cartoons LOL. The after is still hard for me to get used to yet. I think I will be wearing socks more!
