A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.

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.

The other day my pt had a colostomy, ya know the gallbladder was removed. (and this was from the nurse giving me report)
Maybe he's had nerve damage for a LOOOONNNNNNNNNNGGG time.
I agree with Lois, he may have had a long-standing issue therefore had nerve damage in his foot. :0)
Today I had to make a courtesy call to a family doctor with the result of an x-ray done on his patient,after the patient came to my Unit for treatment...
"So...the patient has fractured his talus" I said
"What part of the hip is that?" asked the doctor
Had a little kid tell me that his dog had to be "seduced" by the vet for a surgical procedure (he obviously meant sedated).
and his physiatrist said he's crazy.
"My HMO gave me a choice between that and an OB-GYN."
"He's been saying that for 70 years, but I never noticed any problems."
Another instance of foot in mouth disorder.
Hahahah. I've had someone mix up feet and kids before too! They sound far too similar.
Give the man a break. Maybe he's having a second childhood.
