I cracked a joke with my Doctor, PRE-Op

You know how they get you to fill out about a million papers durring pre-op tests? Well I recently turned 18 (legal age) and so I was filling them out, signing this and that and all of a sudden I realized that all these papers "hidden" in the middle were asking me if I wanted to participate in a study on C Difficile (Sp?) I found that hilarious. So when I saw my doctor he asked me if I signed everything and I said "Yup, and I got the advertisements too." LOL he didn't find it funny at all. Infact, he went into a twenty minute speal on why medical tests are important. I still find it hilarious. ;)

C Diff is the one thing that u shouldn't crack a joke about, that is a serious matter, but good luck

In serena's defense: I don't think she was making a joke out of c diff. She thought it was funny how the paper was stuck in the midst of all the others kinda like she would just sign it without reading it. I recall doing stuff like that with my parent's for school papers . . You are right tho, c diff is very serious. Holly

lol yeah that's what I meant. I don't mean to belittle c difficile. I just found it funny- because I was soooooo close to just signing it and I was like waaaait a minute....

I think its funny how they stuck it in the middle of the packet! Like you're not gonna read it it before you sign it LOL Sneak it in and they won't know we;re testing 'em right? Holly

What is C diff

never mind I googled it .ewwwww

I just had C-Diff and was hospitalized for 10 days!  No fun!

random bit of info: I am a nurse, and at the hospital I work at, for the SEVERE cases of C Dif, we do fecal infusions. Yes, that is a feeding tube down into your small intestines feeding you poo from your friends and family... and they wonder why there's a nursing shortage!
