I wondered if anyone has any funny stories when visiting their doctor.
I went for an exam the other day and as I was lying there all I hear from my gp was i've got a wonderful view!
I'm not sure whether to take it as a compliment or not! But it did make me giggle afterwards!

I had a similar thing happen when I had to be examined. So much so he took a photo. It was my tonsils.
He wanted to use photo to show his students how big they get. |

After I had my 2nd son I got piles, it took me ages to pluck up courage to go to Doctors as I was embarrassed. Anyway made the appointment thinking would be my own Dr but when I got into the room it was this drop dead sexy Navy Doctor in the white tropical uniform(was in Hong Kong at time)and all he said when I showed him said piles was "Oh Mrs Smith thats a big one Im not going to touch it " |

Years ago went for a smear and was asked if it was ok for a trainee to be there and take the smear.
They had put me with my legs up and me facing the wall. All done never felt a thing.
They said I could get dressed, turned round and the trainee doctor got hold of my hand to help me down. We looked at each other and burst out laughing.
Well Alan, when we played Doctors and Nurses in the school yard, never thought you'd be ding it for real.
Yes I went to Junior school with him

Before I moved south 6 months ago, I'd been with my GP's surgery for some 19 years.
My GP was like an old friend, with a terrific sense of humour, but one thing I recall was him seeing me one morning when I felt really unwell.
"Morning Iain; you really don't look well, what you doing here? You might infect me let alone my patients! Go and see a doctor!"
Or I was in hospital due to have major eye surgery, and as I entered the Operating Theatre to be transferred onto the operating table, the specialist was going through what would happen, in a move to try to keep me calm.
I noticed, via a mirror, there was an "X" marking above my left eye, written on with some liquid. I joked, "Just making sure you have the correct eye, are you?"
His reply was, "No! I've always had trouble (then he did the rest in a pretend stutter) differentiating my rrrrrright fffffrom mmmmmmmy llllleft!"
Apparently, I went pale, as everyone else in the theatre creased up with laughter.
The subsequent operation lasted almost 8 hours, not the 2 hours they expected; it took a further 4 operations over the next 5 months to sort out the problems and if it wasn't for those operations, I'd be blind now! |

"yeah i went in thinking i had stomach cramps... she then told me i was pregnant with a 33week old baby
"
........ imagine my shock when I went to see my doctor thinking I was approaching the menopause and he told me I was pregnant.
We both nearly fell off our chairs but only one of us was laughing. |

I had a lump removed from my face, two surgeons were discussing how the one should do it so's to leave minimum scarring, they were drawing on my face and talking like I wasn't there.... they kept using the word 'flaps' - I got terrible giggles imagining them drawing rude pics on me face... the doc cottoned onto why, so he kept exhagerating the word and kept asking what on earth I was finding so funny. |

Apparently the stage before pre menopausal is a last ditch surge of hormones as the body puts all its eggs in one basket (literally!). Don't you remember being at school with kids who's parents looked like grandparents? Thats why!!
This happened to someone close to me who had spent her whole adult life unable to get pregnant naturally. After three ivf babies she and her hubby had never paid too much attention to contraception. She went to her gp convinced she was pre menopausal, nope, baby number 4.
I was at the docs the same week as the discovery discussing coils... |
