I Have The Coolest Doctor....EVER!!
I love my primary physician.
I first met Dr. T about a year ago. I was unhappy with my previous service. I got some better insurance. I upgraded big time.
At on of our first visits he was entering some info into his tablet (physicians are so techie now) and he kept screwing up. He dropped a couple of f-bombs and we both laughed.
I got a good story out of it....and a good doctor.
That leads to yesterday's visit.
A few days ago I hurt myself doing the laundry. Really! I'm serious!
It's a front loading washer. I bent over to toss in some sheets and couldn't get back up. Pain in the front lower left area.
After two days of not being able to tie my shoes, long naps and valium, I decided I better see my doctor.
I was worried about a hernia and that was the first thing he checked. All good. Phew.
He gets me on the exam table and starts the poking and prodding. OW! He found the spot. Pulled groin muscle.
Who pulls a groin doing laundry? Me! Oy! Sigh!
Here's how the next conversation went: H: I took a 200mg Ibuprofen and it feels a little better. Dr.T: Phhht....600mg's 3 times a day. H. That's okay for my liver and kidneys? Dr.T: Would I tell you to take it if it wasn't? H: eyeroll
He tells me to give it about a week and everything would be fine. I'm stuck on the table and asked for a hand to get down. His final words..."Can I get you a walker?"
I love this guy. Best doctor EVER!!
