I’m not one to go to the doctors, but well I needed a new primary care doc. So I found one and hope she will be a good one. Don’t ya just like them first time experiences, just when you think your all organized; you forgot something!!! And yes I do carry a backpack. I have no car, so I walk everywhere. I needed it today for shopping. Just my little quirky doctor’s visit tale!!!! LOL!! [bodytext] => Here I had sat a little while ago, Wondering when I get to show The doctor my medical file To my surprise it was a huge pile! Of course be there half hour early Then give your life history, surely! Ah, hah… what does this mean? A ton of signatures on a hundred pages it seemed, Read that fine print; don’t want to be reminded Of what to come, only to have YOU paying behind it! The insurance two days earlier said now we had a co-pay Yeah, well I forgot that, since we never did it before that way Thankfully the clerk said I could pay After I get out of work the next day! Ok, so all that done, you wait; look around The main desk, kids room, and a big fish tank you found! Oh about 55 gal I'd say, with 4 little fishes and one big one Bubba is his name, enjoying the rays from the sun Well, my name got called; here I go… My first new doctor visit, boy did my blood pressure flow!! Nurse looks at me, I’m all red, my temp is warm Oh that’s just my hot flashes deciding to swarm! I sure did need to be relieved, I had been holding it since I left, so now asked if a PP test was in need! Instructions given, I start to do my business for sure!! Gee, I forgot to lock that dang bathroom door! Boy did I hold on for dear life, just as some stranger opened it!! This time I made sure I locked and used my backpack to hold it!! Finally can relax, seemed forever, that little cup I hold tight!! Just about there, knock knock ... Nurse asked if ” I’m alright!!” “ Leave me alone, I’m doing fine,” I said “(*&(%#@*) ” with a roar!!! Oh, thank god, feel so much better, no mess on the floor!! All done with that, back to the room, and wait… Well my doctor enters, seeing no one at first Because I’m reading on the back of the door, about a kneecap verse. I step out and shake her hand, pleasant, young, understanding Asking all those questions doctors do, but not so demanding I talk, answer as best I can, and then await my fate She has many patients, but has time for each to abate She takes some time out to talk, listens and sincerely cares About me, as I’m comfortable to share Feeling much calmer, hoping she can help, The clues of her writings, tuning to meet My results are some ultrasound tests and blood They get their two vials from my pelt!! This time it hurt, my warm liquid flowing like a flood! Thankfully that needle part done, short and sweet Thanked everyone in the lab, my doc, how they endured my doubt! Off I go to the check out To see my next visit, make appointments I’m not so tense now; I prayed I would make it about In the new doc. office with no disappointments!!!!!
