Re: Strat

Actually, my insurance will cover it, too, Naut -- which gives me something else to belly ache about - all that paperwork!

Re:

Most likely, she'll just ask for a note from the doctor making sure they didn't find my head up in there, Kabu.

Re:

Ha! I did survive the bubonic plague but now I think I've got African Sleeping Sickness, BC. Oh well, at least I don't have to quit drinking for that, at least not according to my present doctor, who is also my bass player and a drinking buddy. 

Clearly it pays to find the right doctor...

Strat

I know what you mean! I actually had 4000 ft of garden hose plus camera (probably a Nikon 5000) shoved up my butt - a most unwelcome experience. At least I didn't have to pay for it - it's paid for by our Ontario HIP Insurance, which doesn't just cover hips but other body parts as well...

Well, strat, all I can say, is I'm totally with you one this one! I feel exactly the same way, and have some horrid MD experiences. Nope, I ain't going, least not this month...

Strat you really are priceless and you just know that you will bring out the medical in me. Cancel everthing for a couple of days and get this thing done. You will feel great to know that there is nothing wrong with you and think of all that squeaky clean tubing that's never had a good wash out ever.

They put you to bye byes and when you wake up they give you a coffee and sandwich and you can go home and think up more hilarious butt jokes.

Never know you just might get a kiss anyway. Your beloved will have to drive you home and I am sure she will be kissy and cuddly for such a brave boy.

I just got done with the doctor telling me to change my diet.  "Stop eating this.  Stop eating that."  UGH!   Oh, and this post reminds me of that mammogram my doctor keeps pushing me to get.  gee, thanks strat!

lol... I'm sure glad you survived the bubonic plague.  And love the doctor that suggests the middle of the night call... clearly he's not concerned with lawsuits!
