wow....a patient giving the dr. the business over diet coke.....
Is this what the world is coming to?
Do we not have anything else to occupy our mouths and minds...to keep us from having pointless arguments we have no hope in winning, and even if they did win...what would be the point?
Honey, you go drink all the diet coke you want....you won't get no judgment outta me!
I worked with a kid who would only eat red food and only drink pepsi. His parents tried to vary his diet by telling him "Coke is red, it comes in a red can." He only drank Pepsi.
sorry you got the insults from a pt, but at least he didn't stick a q-tip up his nose like that other lady! Ewww
Some people just feel the need to divert attention from their own faults by pointing out everyone else's. If Diet Coke is your worst vice, you're doing pretty good.
My favorite is when people who are 100 pounds overweight give me lectures on my eating habits.
Ha! A woman told my SIL (after seeing her give her 3yo a sip from her Coke): "That's the WORST thing you could give her!" To which my SIL responded "Oh, good! Then I guess I'll let her keep her heroin habit."
Well, we won't discuss my nicotine habit which I am trying to get rid of via the Chantix route (she says this just after lighting a cigarette but ok, I'm trying anyway) but holy rip on the 2-3 six packs of beer per DAY! (I did read you said "per day" didn't I?)! Who the heck can still walk around after that amount of alcohol ingestion? Although I did know a guy from my area who would often go through 2-3 six packs at a sitting but I don't think he drank that much EVERY day. Heck even one day a week of that kind of consumption would have to be a killer on the kidneys, liver and how many other organs too, wouldn't it?

All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

Jesus christ...does this person even have a job? I'm guessing no, because that kind of alcohol consumption...egads.
It's one thing to be in college and drink and smoke that much in a day...by the pool, in the summer.
It's something else entirely for the rest of the population.
Coke zero is ten times better!
Coke Zero IS ten times better...
But to the original point, please tell me you pointed out the ridiculousness to this particular brand of jackass?
PS: my word verification code is "creten". WIN!
No, I didn't. After doing this for so long I've learned that they aren't worth arguing with, and they will never ever ever see your point.
Just not worth the energy any more.
Don't wrestle with a pig in the mud: you get dirty and the pig enjoys it.

What brand of beer does he drink?

I was laffing so hard over the 'creten' word verification thing...
Ya know, I would have filled up a syringe and gave him or her a big dose of attitude right back and make it hurt!!!
Maybe his beer-addled brain thought you meant something else by "coke"
I honestly drink at least 6 Diet Cokes per day.
But you would be proud of me, I'm on month 3 of not smoking. Yay me!
We all know it is so much easier to fix someone else's life than one's own.
hell i had a guy scream and curse at me that i was going to kill him because i refused to fill his blood pressure medication 3 weeks early.
his "blood pressure" medication was xanax 2mg #120.
ummmmmm no it's not going out while i'm the pharm d on duty.
12 to 18 beers a day?? 2 packs of smokes, a day?? What was in your office for? A cure for the common hangover?
It's just the trickle down (abuse) theory at work.
