Are you guys protected/covered against medical errors/mistakes? We are not, even over obvious ones.

 

[Celery]

Hah! We sign the waivers releasing any responsibilities before we get any procedures.

You're not alone.

 

[Wallaby Dan]

Glad my service gives me all the services i need till i die. Va health care has taken care of me and Deb.

 

[Trotter]

My HMO has a network for medical and they come and go. A lot of them went and never came back..

Buy, hey, if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor, if you like your plan you can... Oh, yeah. I forgot. That was a crock of bull feces.

 

[Celery]

You can say that again.

 

[Smart_Guy]

Okay, had the boil/cyst removal surgery this morning. It was tough. These stitches are painful. Damn it, Mahmoud (my cousin). "It's an easy job", he says

 

[Celery]

He went through it too?

 

[Smart_Guy]

Yeah, and in easy sites unlike mine. Injecting anesthesia and cutting flesh in between my legs then dealing with its after math is different than doing it on the shoulder (where he had it) or many other sites really.


Oh well... more paid sick leave for me

 

[strollin]

Paid sick leave SG? I thought your company hadn't paid you in many months. Has that changed?

I've never had a boil, especially in that tender area but when I was 8 or 9 years old a tick attached itself to one of my testicles and I had to have it surgically removed.

 

[Celery]

Now that's looking on the bright side.

I once had a thorn in the head of my penis. It took a while to work itself out.
