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.

An absolutely factual and correct reply, which gave no useful information about the matter in hand. Is he a lawyer?

"And then I came down with a bad case of Malaysia."
"But it almost hit me in the Netherlands."
"Actually, it was Kiribati, but I got tired of having to explain where it is and correct people's pronunciation."
"Although, technically, the shooter was in Djibouti. Long story."
i always tell them i have had just 1 surgery in my life, and did not walk for almost a year.
they always act concerned, then i tell them,' i was circumcised at birth...
(Don McCollor)...The Dr is not specific enough like "where in your body were you shot" while the Vet is remembering the circumstances. Remember that not everyone will correctly interpret what to you is an obvious question or instruction...
Paging Dr. Google Maps.

Reminds me of an old story:
Lawyer: "You said he was shot in the woods?"
Doctor: "No, I said he was shot in the lumbar region."
We raised a son with Asperger syndrome and he almost certainly would have answered the question similar to the person in your scenario.
