A Little Medically Induced Rant for Your Friday Reading Pleasure...

Why is it that if I am 2 hours late for a doctor's appointment I would be considered a no show, YET the doctor can make me wait 2 hours before even acknowledging me!!!??

Don't worry, I am not delusional enough, even in my sickened state (no comments) to expect anyone to be able to answer that question.

Then I get in there and my blood pressure is a bit higher than it should be. Lecture begins.... Well let's see...I have a UTI from HELL, I woke up with a migraine and I just sat for two hours waiting to pee in a cup...YOU FREAKING THINK!!!!!! Write me my bloody prescription so I can get the hell out of here!!!!

But the day wouldn't be complete without a stern talking to about my weight. Are you kidding me??? After I proceeded to tell her that I have lost 100 pounds in the last year and a half, knocked 20 percentage points off my body fat percentage, gone from a 56 inch hip to a 43 inch hip and a 49 inch waist to a 38 inch waist, dropped 9 dress sizes and normalized all of my blood levels including my Rhematoid Factor she dropped the subject!! I guess her soap box was feeling a bit shaky! lol

And then to top everything off, Publix is so understaffed that it is taking them 4 hours to fill a prescription today!! Woo Hoo!!

What is it with doctors giving women a hard time about their weight? I'm 5'5" and weigh close to 200 lbs. Not exactly a bean pole and I have a noticeable paunch. Yet I've only had one doctor even make one remark about it, and that was a kind of half-hearted joke about my tummy. Oh, that's right. I'm a guy, so it's not a big deal. :-P
