Lately… it isn’t the Bill that gets me to laugh at the doctors. It is their question of Pain. “On a scale of 0 to 10… what would you say your pain is?” To the average person… they might be balling their eyes out and calling their pain a 8. To me… the same pain might be a 5. They have no idea what my Level 9 or 10 is. Giving birth (decades ago)… was a 5!!!
Laughter may result in convulsions in some people. Laughter may result in choking. Do not laugh and drive. Do not laugh if you are allergic to laughter, or lack a sense of humor. If you experience an adverse reaction to laughter, stop laughing and see your doctor.
Whenever a medical professional would ask me the pain question I used to quip “is that scale linear or logarithmic?” A depressing number didn’t seem to understand the question.

Positivity or insanity laugh?

It looks that patient needs a dentist more than a doctor.

With today’s ridiculous medical costs and insurance situation, I can’t afford to laugh.
