I went to the doctor for my Addisons disease and he fussed at me the whole time i was there.

Since 2017 i gained 50 pounds. 2017 was when i had my knees replaced.

He told me i had to lose 40 pounds.

My grandson is spending the summer with me and was in the room and when the doctor left he told me the doctor was intense. LOL

    He cares.
    Mines a hard * with me too.
    He's usually 99.9% right right though

    ?Doctor chewed me out...?
    As well he should. Your family needs you to be around a while.

    I miss doctors like that. No BS, and right to the point.
    An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it.

    I was looking around the waiting room at the doctor's office last week and approx. 75% of the people in there were over weight and not by a little. If I were a doctor I probably wouldn't have any return customers because if I were one I have to tell them "FAT-* why are you wasting your money coming to me when you know what your problem is????"

    Went to see my doc a couple weeks ago to review some bloodwork and xrays he'd ordered back in May.
    When he came in he said "I have good news and bad news".
    I asked for the good news first.
    He said, "Well, according to my notes, you have 6 weeks to live".
    I told him I couldn't imagine the bad news being much worse than that.
    He then told me, "I wrote these notes in your chart 6 weeks ago"!
    Arrivederci gigi
