cellboy1. I waited an hour in the waiting room, longer than my 20 minute visit with the Doctor. The waiting room was packed. Looked like the cattle call from American Idol. Doc was in a very good mood.
2. All went well. He said all my tests are good, and in greater shape than most of his patients, and to start going back to the gym. Continue with at least 3 aspirin per week, and my usual nightly meds.
3. My foot is fine, just a pinched nerve.
4. I asked him about the posters in the waiting room about getting a pneumonia vaccine (and per![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
grizzlyzone's suggestion). He said normally it is for people over 65, or if immune systems are compromised due to health, or surgery.
5. But since I had it 2 yrs ago, and as a child, why not. So I had the shot on the way out.
6. Then he starts babbling about the importance of checking for testicular cancer, and prostate cancer, as he asked me to drop my drawers. Talking while doing the procedure. I think he babbles about this to make the patient comfortable and get their mind off of what the doctor is doing.
7. Just before he was to "probe" for the prostate, I was thinking of saying, "Usually this involves a movie or dinner before hand. But in this instance, it's OK."
8. But I didn't. Even though he is in a good mood, I might just catch him too off guard. This comment is usually better when getting checked at MagnetSF :)
9. On his way out he asked if I'm still using Levitra. I said, yes, sometimes, off and on, and then said, "Woo hoo!!" He turned at me before closing the door, somewhat red faced, smiling, chuckling, while making the sign of the cross, as if to bless me :)
