[QUOTE="RAPS_od, post: 981887, member: 132477"] I'm laughing so hard I'm crying over these. This stuff drives me nuts, too. I have three instances: [LIST] [*]Me: I'm getting a cold. Dr: Oh, take horehound and honey. Always helps me! Me: Are you diabetic? Dr: No, are you? [*]Me (at the tender age of 15): I'm concerned about my weight. I think I need to see the dietitian. Dr: Well, you could always take up smoking... (Just as a side note, I did take up smoking and didn't lose a pound. When I told the doctor, he asked me why I took up smoking!) [*]I'm in the emergency room due to a hypoglycemic incident. Two nurses and two doctors come in. One doctor takes my hand; the others all look sad and sympathetic. Me: What's going on? Dr: Well, I don't know how to tell you this. Me: Oh God... Dr: Have you ever been tested for diabetes? Me: Oh dear God! [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
