If I could I would take umbrage but Jude has already taken it apparently, so,since it's not available, I won't.
 
PHranque, oops, forgot the silent 3, I know very well it was tongue in cheek, sadly though, I have found it to be oh so true, as you also know.
 
Trev comes with me these days only because I don't drive anymore, so, he has no choice, neither do I.
 
I don't bother with specialists any more though, I just visit my gp for prescriptions.  Since I have been going to him for over 20 years, he knows me very well and knows I would rather he said, "well, what do you want me to do?"  than to pretend.

Patti and the many others who have e-mailed me,

My e-mail was written tongue in cheek- a joke even?

But there was a study done in the 1970's that showed that women complaining of chest pain to male physicians were more likely NOT to have as thorough lab/ekg/echocardiograms/etc than men of the same age.
