You could get away with a lot more in 1969. Ah, the good ole days.

 

Gosh even 1999. I feel bad for kids nowadays between the forever of the internet and feeling pressure to look perfect for instagram.

Had appointment with Quack Injection Doc (QID) today, grrr man.

Sped like an illegitimate male child to arrive right on time, driven we man.

Didn't get called in for half an hour, a bit early for them to be so far behind man.

Was interviewed by Medical Assistant, take basic details she man.

Was later interviewed by Physician's Assistant, take more basic details she man.

After another half-of-half an hour, QID & PA come in, he & she man.

 

QID barely lets us say a word, prattle he man.

(PA is serving as secretary for Electronic Health Records, type she man.)

QID said, "Never in Many,000 procedures that I have performed has this happened, no man."

"The next step is an MRI with contrast, only solution man."

We asked, "Is it possible that we reacted to the steroid or amount of it, huh man?"

QID said, "That is not an issue.  We need a new MRI, with contrast, see man."

We asked, "What will another MRI so soon tell us that the old one can't, huh man?"

QID said, "There may be incidental findings, like a synovial cyst, for example man."

We asked, "Will it answer why the injection procedure failed, huh man?"

QID said, "It did not fail!  There has never been a reaction like this, no man."

We (getting urinated) asked, "Do you plan to treat the MRI, or treat the patient, huh man?"

QID said, "The next step is an MRI with contrast, only solution man."

We (silently):  "The next step is an arrogance-ectomy for you, you butthole man."

 

So we paid $Many for no answers, no clinical exam, and a bunch of preaching, grrrrRRRRRR man.

 

Later, our fizzicle therapist came over, mobilized us, helped us feel better about wasted experience above, and didn't charge us for the visit, redeem our faith she man.

That is terrible. See a different doctor this guy is a quack! 

 

I'm guessing he screwed up the shot and needs the MRI to show what he hit.

Being the age I am is almost worth it in that sense alone.

Miserable night last night. Dog pacing and panting, Himself sleeping of course. The only thing that would quiet her was for me to sit at my desk, she would go under that into her bed and fall directly to sleep. As you would do with a baby, I quietly tried to sneak back to bed. Resulting in instant on, pacing and panting. I sat up until after 0300. No wonder I am tired.  The sun is out today, very nice out there. Trouble is we are due for more weather tonight, after dark again.

 

Himself (aka Chickie) is having a wonderful time yakking back and forth with his mates from 1969. Some of the stories they are swapping make me wonder how they never got into real trouble. Teenagers   He will have to get used to people calling him Bill again, not his name. That was what he used to be called before his Mother did the change-all-the-kids-names-first-last-middle because she got remarried. 

 

Oh poor doggie.  My late terrier was terrified of storms. He panted, paced, shivered, pawed me to hold him and nothing would calm him down. I tried Thundershirts, doggie downers, you name it, nada. If the smoke detector went off he thought it was sirens and started to shake and pant.

 

We have more storms predicted for tonight too but not severe like last night. Spouse and I spent 45 minutes in the city parking garage waiting out the worst of the storm last night. Didn't want hail damage to the car or drive in torrential rain.

there must be some aspect of forced socialization that they are trying to accomplish under the "team building"

Way to get oneself excused is to enter the room with wild eyes and exclaim, "I hate people, animals, and things, si man!"

Or, more simply, "There is no 'i' in 'team,' so I'm outta here, bye man!"

1.  Guy is chief of entire spine center at large clinic, with outside professorships, egad man.

      Clinic sent us evaluation forms, and we absolutely barbecued him, vulcanized man.

2.  We shall use the MRI in this way, great idea D ma'am.
