So yesterday I finally decided to take myself off to the GP after having spent a week trying to self medicate this nasty cough.
So 1:30 I arrive, meet my new Doc (the old one left) and take a seat in his guest chair that makes a lovely farting sound as you sit down.
2 hours later I emerge after having 7 vials of blood taken, x-rays on my wrist , 2 surgical procedures(+4 stitches to boot) a referral letter , a prescription for my cough and a very red face!
What the hell kind of person , in the 3rd minute of meeting you, tells you to whip off your pants so he can give you pap smear!! I need preparation for that kind of thing dammit!
Oh, and the best part is that after all of that I go outside, clearly shaken and discover that I had left the lights on in my car the entire time! FML
A few lifts, phone calls , push starts , finally jumper leads and a depleted medical aid later, it was 4:30 and definitely time to go home!
That'll teach me!
Sherbert Tanya, remind me never to go to your overly-enthusiastic GP. Two surgical procedures! What on earth for?
ReplyDeleteI had a two little lumps. One on each of my shoulder blades. Can you believe it?.
ReplyDeleteHe says that they are quite common though and nothing to worry about. Anyway, they are gone now.
