that having had one a few years ago, I was doing my best to make bads jokes to the GI doc. I was watching the same monitor that he was and adding editorial remarks. I didnt know this MD - he was a specialist that I had been referred to - and I must say, he COMPLETELY ignored my comments. He probably regretted not giving me more demoral!!

That's ok, Lucia. I handle frightening and awkward situations with my weird sense of humor too. The nurses usually laugh, but you're right; the doctors are sometimes stonefaces.

Those where funny! I cant believe the doctor didnt say anything or at least snicker. I guess they have to stay focused.
