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.

Note: I do not answer medical questions. If you are having a medical issue, see your own doctor. For all you know I'm really a Mongolian yak herder and have no medical training at all except in issues regarding the care and feeding of Mongolian yaks.

For the truly pompous physician, listing a long differential is an opportunity to demonstrate the number of rare diseases you can name.
Whenever I see something like this, I only feel admiration that someone else was able to present a more professional statement than the one I use and it's probably safe to suggest they weren't able to come up with a definitive diagnosis right away. "More tests are necessary. We will try to look for a reasonable explanation, but it may take some time." They wish to leave final answer open until all possibilities are exhausted, up to and including exposure to moon dust, radon, perhaps someone consumed green apples, and in this particular and specific circumstance under highly unusual conditions the Krebs cycle went in reverse, possibly, unusual and unforeseen misalignment of the stars, though that makes it sound too much like voodoo medicine.
Sometimes it's nice to recall that we're all just heaps and heaps of electrical, magnetic, etc attractions among atomic particles.
I think we are about to receive someone's poory written term paper.
Sounds like the "it's complicated" relationship status on Facebook.
They do know that medical marijuana is for patients only, right?

You are in a maze of twisty passages, all alike.
