Getting ready for the day, and reading another doctor's note on a patient coming in this morning:
"Her pain can involve 1 to 4 limbs at a time, but never more than that."
A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
"Her pain can involve 1 to 4 limbs at a time, but never more than that."
Welcome to my whining!
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. 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.

Thanks goodness! I am not sure even YOU have been schooled in that type of pain managaement!
KK in OK
The fun never stops at Dr Grumpy's Laugh and Limb Emporium. Keep up the good fight.
Oh well we wouldn't want any more than 4 limbs involved at a time now would we?
Work has been getting in the way of adequate blogging but I've been catching up on some of your old posts and well I'm crying because I've been laughing so hard - especially after reading about your kids being naked on the trampoline!
maybe they think you're a tree surgeon.
lmfao! it must be that damn phantom pain rearing its ugly head again! just don't tell the other patients...i can picture a stampede of patients arriving for medications to fix the pain within the realm of their auras....
Perhaps this is a patient with an extra limb? (Admittedly, I've never heard of someone having an extra limb that's more than just a nuisance.)
