medical advice


Recommended Posts

My doctor of 20 years just retired, and sold his practice to

a new young GP. After two visits to my new doctor, and exhaustive Lab tests,

he said I was doing 'fairly well' for my age. (I just turned sixty-something.)

 

A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't

resist asking him, "Do you think I'll live to be 80?"

 

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

 

"Oh no," I replied. "I've been told I can't have any more tobacco or alcohol!"

 

Then he asked, "Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?"

 

I said, "Nope... my former doctor said that all red meat is off my diet!"

 

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

 

"No, I don't. I try to minimize UV exposure." I said.

 

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

 

“No." I said...

 

He looked at me and said, "Then, why do you even give a ****?"
