Last year’s annual physical started with a female Physician Assistant asking questions, reviewing prescriptions, taking my vitals, and examining my extremities. Then she left to get the doctor for “the rest of the exam”.

They returned and both put on gloves. I asked if I should glove also. He said no, drop your pants. He examined the front side while explaining what he was doing, then told her to do the exam. As she began I asked “You’ve done this before?” She replied “No. This is my first” (she is in her 20s and married so I assume familiar with the area) and told the doctor what she felt. Then the doctor told me to get on the exam table and assume the position. We continued with the exam as above, him first, then her, while I groaned “Two for the price of one”.

Several months later I was in for a blood test review. My doctor walked in with four PA’s just to get see my reaction.

And you think your exam was tough. 🙂

p.s.
For the record, after a career in education and training, I told my doctor I am always willing to be of help.

We, of course, laughed at your postal worker joke. We sent it to our postal friends who also had a good laugh. We certainly need it on snow days when we deliver one piece of junk mail to a hard-to-get-at mailbox. But the show must go on….
Thanks for brightening up a postman’s life.

Funny funny again..

Are you familiar with RJ? He has this weekly show, Bravo nights…in it, executives and regular joes come and sing aside from the regular guests..sponsored by Bravo..a male supplement..alam mo na for what purpose.
.Ang catch phrase niya “Happy wife, happy life”..syempre when you use bravo, satisfied in bed yung wife daw or that is the theory (LOL)..Met him one day in Rockwell thru a mutual friend..Told him I watch his show pero I am disturbed by his happy wife yak yak..Ask ko , whatever happened to the “happy Husband”, is he a myth lang and does not really exist? His wife was there too and she asked what it was about …nakisakay lang so sagot niya parang ..”does not exist” and we all had a good laugh..Pag uwi nun baka sabihan si RJ..”bakit ka nagrereklamo sa ibang tao pa?” LOL!!

Good Morning Raoul, TGIF joke funny 😂lol. Hope you’re ok with physical. All mine have been with mostly female Doctors. One of my last times she wanted to check my colon but it never happened because I kept screaming and laughing every time she tried so she finally gave up and just went with a stool sample 😂😂😂 lol . Thank God because that felt weird lol. Hope all is well brother.

Really like this issue as I am on my way to Keck USC. For a Cat Scan and Covid check for surgery next week. Funny when I first tried a scan my claustrophobia would cause fear of going into the tube. Now after many scans I am comfortable doing it.
Same thing with blood draws and exams. One lady that draws blood is so funny ,you never feel the needle penetrate your vein.
Thanks for getting me smiling this morning! Tom of Pasadena

Dear Raoul:

Pain is a bugger for sure and seeing a doctor who isn’t your gender is tough for all of us, but until the recent past, it’s all women were examined by. You try lying on your back with your legs spread apart and put in stirrups! Humiliation to the max for sure especially if you’re giving birth!
I hope whatever you have has a simple fix. When’s your appointment with your doctor? See you Monday if you’re better. Heather
