Has anyone else but me wondered why the scale in the doctor's office is always 5-10 pounds heavier that the ones we have at home ?
You wantta talk about ethical problems ? What about the heart surgeon who had to do risky by-pass surgery on a malpractice attorney ?
An older man goes to a doctor and gets examined. The doctor tells him that until he recovers, he has to cut his sex life in half.
The old guy smiles and sez, "Which half: thinking about it or talking about it ?"
Like a lot of people, I had that stupid flu this past winter, and while I knew the doctor couldn't do a lot to help, I went to see him, because it was getting pretty severe.
I told him, "Doctor it's so bad, I'm even having trouble breathing."
His reply was hardly reassuring. He said, "Don't worry. I'll give you something to stop that."
Doctors these days are just getting way too specialized. This guy I know has a real bad sinus infection. When it went to his throat, he had to change doctors.
A man is having terrible rectal pains. A friend suggests that tea can be medically helpful in such matters. Since nothing else worked, the man places tea leaves on his anus and waits for relief.
The pains however, become even more intense, so he rushes to the Emergency Room.
The doctor, a young intern from India, takes a look at the man's rear end, then concludes, "I don't know what the problem is yet, but I see from the tea leaves you're going to take a long trip."
