olderndirt Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Went to my cardiologist for my six monthly check-up. My problem is stable Angina which really isn't a problem unless you try to be energetic for too long. This bi-annual visit always begins with the usual back and forth - a bit of stethoscope work and on into about fifteen minutes banter about the state of mostly everything. Six months before our next review of the world at large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lifejogger Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Sounds like it was a good visit OND. I am due for my yearly visit to the Urologist soon, not my favorite place to go, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsy Pilot Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Just got my checkup and the damn doctor said that I probably will last another 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc_Z Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Have mine early next month. Doctor's office left first message reminding me of it, more will come. I wonder if they do that for younger patients? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawrence aldrich Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 A patient was examined by a doctor who confessed he had good news and bad news. The patient said give it to me straight, doc. Doctor: the good news is that you have 24 hours to live. Patient: That's the good news !! What is the bad news? Doctor....I was supposed to tell you yesterday.

flyingleaf Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Heck I probably shouldn't say this but I will anyway. My Doc. doesn't have an ounce of humor, however I made him laugh out loud one time. He came in the examination room and asked me: "Karl are you still smoking?" I said:" Yes I do" so he said:" Don't you know smoking will kill you slowly?" I looked at him and said:" Well Doc I'm not really in a hurry". He could not stop laughing but gave my holy heck anyway.

I visit my GP and Cardio guy every six months - GP wants me die with perfect numbers and the Cardio guy says "see you in six months" which in itself is quite encouraging.
