I go into my doctor on friday, telling them that I think I have appendicitis, because I checked my symptoms on the internet and they matched. Well the Doctor at my HMO (Kaiser Permenente) send me to another Kaiser office to get a cat scan. Well the Kaiser doc at the cat scan office tells me that "you have no signs of appendicitis, but your white blood cell count is 17000, so you have some type of infection. You should go to the hospital to get some anti-biotics."

I am thinking, why the fuck don't these assholes just prescribe it to me themselves? So I go to the hospital and wait around, and their doc takes a look at me and says "I don't know how your doctor missed this, but you have appendicitis and you need surgery now."

So I have been all doped up on percocet the past few days, and have about 12 staples in my stomach.

Just goes to show that old joke is true. What do you call the guy who graduates last in medical school? Doctor:fawk2:
 
Dude, that sucks, f'ing doctors.
My dad always warned me about hospitals,
if the desease doesn't kill you, they will!
 
I don't trust doctors, I know that may sound a bit bad considering I work in pre-hospital care but I've had doctors on the other end of the phone asking me what I thought the patient had!

Hope you get better soon, Cruci, good to see you back on the board again!
