Dr. Grumpy: "How long have you been taking Fukitol?"
Mr. Vague: "Um, since I started it."
A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
Mr. Vague: "Um, since I started it."
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.

Dr. Grumpy: "And when was it that you started taking the Fukitol?"
Mr. Vague: "When Dr Other prescribed it."
And if you ever find out when , the question of how often he takes them will be answered, " Whenever I need them."
Notes: Patient cannot admit having trouble remembering, or we just discovered a new adverse drug reaction for fukitol (causes loss of memory)
So, how many pills of Fukitol(R) left in the bottle, when was it last refilled, and which 'refill' is this? Please, just hand me the bottle and let's see what's in it.
"Thank you, but that information is absolutely useless."
Artie had all the best lines on Larry Sanders.
Well, it is called "Fukitol!"
Change of subject...I know how you like history stories, so I thought you might like this.. http://www.cprr.org/Museum/Golden_Spike_Missing.html
It came in the mail. I mean the mailman brought it in a package. Or was it the UPS guy in that brown truck. Anyway it was just before I ate the potato chips.

I know. When you ask what the dose is, Mr. Vague will hand you a pill and say "Look!"
Of course, you'll never find it in the drug book, because Mr. V. got a generic that looks nothing like the original.
Oh, the myriad ways this could go awry...
Actually, there are some drug identification programs out there available to institutions (subscription costs) that provide strength, maker, address, etc. for generics. They're not so great for drugs received in the mail from foreign entities or purchased at the gas station without markings, but hey! A tiny bit better than available on the street.
