Funny stories. I need to laugh because I just returned from a surgeon's office and had to put another $275 on my credit card. Here's a story for you. When I was younger (much younger LOL) I got a prescription for birth control pills and the instructions were "take one daily by mouth" I stared at the package and smiled as I said to the pharmacist "These are pills. Of course you take them by mouth." He said "Not everyone understands that."

1. A man comes into the ER and yells, "My wife's going to have her baby in the cab!"
I grabbed my stuff, rushed out to the cab, lifted the lady's dress, and began to take off her underwear. Suddenly, I noticed that there were several cabs -- and I was in the wrong one.

2. At the beginning of my shift, I placed a stethoscope on an elderly and slightly deaf female patient's anterior chest wall.
"Big breaths," I instructed.
"Yes, they used to be," replied the patient.

3. One day I had to be the bearer of bad news when I told a wife that her husband had died of a massive myocardial infarct.
Not more than five minutes later, I heard her reporting to the rest of the family that he had died of a, "massive internal fart."

4. During a patient's two week follow-up appointment with his cardiologist, he informed me, his doctor, that he was having trouble with one of his medications.
Which one?, I asked.
The patch the nurse told me to put on a new one every six hours, and now I'm running out of places to put it!
I had him quickly undress, and discovered what I hoped I wouldn't see.
Yes, the man had over fifty patches on his body!
Now, the instructions include removal of the old patch before applying a new one.

5. While acquainting myself with a new elderly patient, I asked, "How long have you been bedridden?"
After a look of complete confusion, she answered...."Why, not for about twenty years -- when my husband was alive."

6. I was caring for a woman and asked, "So, how's your breakfast this morning?"
"It's very good, except for the Kentucky Jelly.
I can't seem to get used to the taste," the patient replied.
I then asked to see the jelly, and the woman produced a foil packet labeled "KY Jelly."'
