Oh, so true. Drain, go to bed, wake up, drain, go to bed, wake up, drain, go to…
Argh.
Dr. “You pee too much.”
Me. “You told me to drink a gallon of non-alcoholic liquids a day, so what do you expect?”
Dr. “mumble-mumble-mumble… You pee too much.”
Me. “So I should only drink 20oz a day plus what I get out of my food?”
Dr. “mumble-mumble-mumble… No. Drink around a gallon a day, just don’t pee so often.”
Me. “Okay, wise guy, you tell my bladder that.”
Dr. “Maybe your prostate’s enlarged and your bladder is small.”
15 minutes later after tests and such…
Dr. “Nope, bladder is big and prostate is small. You pee too much.”
Me, in my head and not outloud (which, by the way, is really hard…) “And I pay you for this???” Outloud. “So, you want me to stop drinking?”
Dr. “No, you just pee too much.”
Dr’s today suck. There’s not two in ten that know WTF it is they’re doing and the biggest % of those are employed at the VA. It’s not JUST VA Dr’s however. I went to a Dr. years ago for shoulder pain. This was when HMO’s first became widespread. The Dr. noted the cracking and popping in my shoulder as he manipulated the joint. I was in my mid forties at the time. He told me flat out “This is normal”. I said to him :please explain to me why one shoulder is cracking and popping and the other shoulder makes no sound when going through the same motions.” I got the three headed stare.
Then there’s the pandemic fiasco which only proves that the medical establishment, in its entirety is totally corrupt.
Then they have the audacity to question why people with two brain cells to rub together don’t believe a word they utter.
Cederq, you’re an old nurse (and other things), just put a catheter in, empty the bag when you get up.
I gotta find it before I can do that…
Ha hahahahaha
The never ending circle. I don’t need an alarm clock most of the time. My bladder does that job.
