something I always want to do..

[eakers]

everytime I am at the doctor and he is looking in my ear or taking my temperature with the thing that goes in your ear I want to say "Can you see my brains?"

but you know how doctors are always professional and have no sense of humour I am worried he might think I am "special" and then start explaining to me how the inner ear works.

I am also worried he might say "no i can see right through to the other side"

either way, everytime he is doing it I start giggling quietly inside but can never bring myself to ask.

What makes you think doctors don't have a sense of humor?

nah, they do hence why they would say "no, i can see right through to the other side" but all professional like. (that would be so hilarious)

but you know how some doctors when they are working are always in professional mode because everything is so serious so it seems like they have no sense of humour

and yes i have seen the movie patch adams

When someone has something stuck in my ear the last thing I want to do is make them laugh uncontrollably.

Anyone who has to give prostate exams as part of their job better damn well have a sense of humor

When I got my contact lenses my lens fitter told me that no, I couldn't lose the lenses inside my head.

Apparently he gets asked that frequently, & now just tells people without them asking.

Glad to know we are catering to the dumb now.

I know a lotta doctors who have a great sense of humor, my oral surgeon(when I had my wisdom teeth removed) was halarious ... but I guess some do get into a serious mood while actually doing their job.

Yeah.......my dentist is hilariously funny. Makes for some interesting moments while his tools are jammed into my mouth...

 

[CraigRT]

There is a Seinfeld where Kramer has a whole speech about this. In short, if you are ever at a party with a proctologist, plant yourself down next to him and get ready to hear some funny stories - and the all end up with the same punch line "It was a million to one shsot, Doc, A million to one..."

Next time they look in your ear, hold your hand up next to your ear on the other side and say "How many fingers am I holding up?" Hehehe.

I always try to joke with patients, it helps out. I had this poor guy that was just sitting in a cafe eating his lunch and somebody walked in and clobbered him with a baseball bat. (gang thing) We got him all on the backboard and were about to leave the restaurant and I asked the interpreter to ask him if he wanted his lunch in a doggy bag.

Got a small giggle out of the guy, he forgot a minute later from the retrograde amnesia. Those are the fun patients to talk to.

What happened?
Shark bite.
Ohhhh?

A minute later...

What happened?
Shark bite.
Ohhhh?

A minute later...

What happened?
Alligator bite.
Ohhhh?

Etc...

The Ear Canal is sealed off by the eardrum at the other end, so even if your head was 'hollow' ... he wouldn't be able to see thru to the other side, much less see your brain

So when you're at the gyno, do you want to ask if he can see your ovaries?
