- Whow... is this one of those tablets that once you start taking it, you have to take it for the REST of your LIFE?
... No. You don't have to. Just stop whenever you want to increase your chance to cop a heart attack or a stroke!
I don't understand this frequently heard comment about preventative medicines. It's like two guys get stuck in quicksand. One guy grabs a tree branch and the other guy continues to sink but manages to yell out: "Hey, don't grab that, if you do, you have to hang on to it forever ...".

Things that bug me: #1
-It's just a referral, Doc. My "normal" doctor is away, I know you don't like to do this ... but the receptionist at the specialist wants a referral, can you fax it over ?
...Errr , who are you?
-I'm new to this practice.
...Who's the specialist?
-Some lung physician in town, don't you have a list I can look at and find out his name ?
... What's is the problem?
-It's a long story, I only need a referral!
... OK! Let me get this right... You want me, your "abnormal" doctor, to write a legal document to someone I don't know, discussing about someone I don't know, who has a complicated problem I also don't have a clue about ?
-Yes, Can you also back date it to yesterday and fax it now, please ?
