Visit with a new DR

[gillettehunter]

I recently picked a new primary care doctor. After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, he said I was doing 'fairly well' for my age (I am in my mid fifties).


Being a little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, "Do you think I'll live to be 90?"


He asked, "Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer, wine or hard liquor?"


Oh no," I replied. "I'm not doing drugs, either."


"Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?"


I replied, "Not much. My former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy."


The doctor then asked, "Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?"


I replied, "No, I don't!"


He asked, "Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have lots of sex?"


"No," I responded!


He looked at me and said...

"Then, why do you even give a shit?"

That pretty much summarized it.

Yes and that's why I opened it to begin with.
But upon reading it, I enjoyed it and am glad I looked at it, even if by mistake.
