I have been reading up on some of my old medical records. I am going to take some for Diana to see. She's smarter then me on medical issues but what I find interesting is that they all refer to me as pleasant. Is that a word they all use? I don't remember being pleasant to some of them. LOL

Just wondering. If I could see some of them today, they would wish I was a pleasant person.

I just found this to be interesting. Off the subject a little but I did tell one of my Drs. at the U of C that he was an asshole.

Yes!
"Thank You For Referring Your most Kind and Pleasant Patient". (Interesting, and so on and so forth)....

It's the way doctors start their notes to each other.
It's been a while, for me, but.
I do remember always being referred to like that.
You can kick them in the ****, and they'll still refer to you as kind and pleasant!

Groovy, huh?

When I was still able to practice nursing, that was a regular notation...........

A + O x 3, pleasant and cooperative with care

It differentiates some patients from those with a flat affect, quiet and withdrawn, or downright hostile and belligerent

[dreambeliever128]

You are most likely right on that. I was the first 3 for about 15 years when I first got ill. i was so depressed to the point of being more suicidal, quiet, very withdrawn from everyone, even Bill in a lot of ways.

Pete, if I'd known I could have kicked their *** and still been called pleasant I would have done it. LOL

That is funny cause mine says this pleasant lady too. I bet and not saying you are not cause you seem sweet but it is a standard form the secretary just fills in with slight changes.

[SBOWLING]

I had one that said I was pleasant and kind but my conditon was too complex for him to help. I wanted to kick him in the *** but I decided to save my energy.

Finz,
I always thought it was code. It makes since it should be.

[AintSoBad]

Umm, I wasn't tryin' ta suggust kickin' em.... even though it may have looked that way....

But, they write this way sometimes (I think) to lawyers, and WC, and other ins. people, so's to say, that you're an OK person.

Beyond that, I don't know, and please, don't kick your Doctor on my say so!

Agh!

I was talking to a friend that works in the Drs. office and she said we should be able to sue Drs. for doing nothing for us when they can and won't. I agree. I have seen many like that and I often wonder what they learned in school. Some aren't even qualified in their own field.

Don't worry, we didn't take you litterly. LOL

Many doctors do not take the hippocratic oath anymore. Many doctors are swayed by the insurance industry, lawyers and the DEA. Doctors are pushed into running their businesses like an assembly line, production work and is linked to the particular type of insurance the doctor has signed a contract with. This contract is reflected in the treatment the patient receives and the doctor is not to reveal details of the their contract with the patient.
