Yesterday I had what could have been an excruciatingly embarrassing conversation with my doctor. He called me on my mobile, after I needed to speak to him about something. I was in the car and the line wasn't great, plus I had pulled into a layby to talk and there was a lot of traffic going past so I couldn't hear him properly. Now, before I continue, I have to tell you that I have a crush on my GP. Now I'll continue....
He asked me what was wrong, and after I explained to him he said 'I don't think I've met with you...(pause while he read my notes)...OH...yes I have, of course I have...how could I forget?'
I laughed and said 'You should remember me, I threw my phone at you last time I was with you'. (My phone had slipped out of my hand and hit him last time I walked into his office). So after a few minutes talking and laughing he said 'ouchpotato...can I ask you a question?'. I said 'of course', and he said (or so I thought he said) 'Did I have sex with you when you threw your phone at me?'. I was dumbstruck for a second (whilst imagining all sorts of things!) and I said 'er....pardon?'
He repeated himself, more clearly this time...
'Did I upset you when you threw your phone at me?'
Uh hum...'nuff said!

You're welcome Annie...we all need a giggle sometimes. And it really did make me giggle! It really was just what the doctor ordered

Oh my.... wars were declared for lesser misunderstandings.
But it is decidedly a very amusing story. And now we know why we are not supposed to use our mobile-phones in the car. All sorts of....accidents may happen!
More luck with your next gp!Don't give up!0 -
Oh no...I'm keeping this GP, no matter how red faced I am when I go to see him next! he's the only one in years and years of trying to get a diagnosis who has referred me to a rheumatologist, and has promised we will get to the bottom of it, so blushes or not, my GP he stays!
Of course had I responded with 'I wish' I may well have been filling out registration forms for the other surgery as we speak!0 -
Close your eyes and think of England!0
