Default OT - Medical stuff in MIA/WPB - ENT, Mammography and Colonoscopy

Subject: OT - Medical stuff in MIA/WPB - ENT, Mammography and
Colonoscopy

Hi, all,

My apologies for being off topic, but this is the fastest way to
get the info from other satisfied cruisers...

OT - Medical stuff in MIA - ENT, Mammography and Colonoscopy


We're going to be in Miami for a while, to attend to some medical
stuff, before we head out to the Bahamas. Actually, there's some
possibility that we'll be in West Palm, so this applies to both
areas.

We need recommedations for an ENT who does nasal resections and
"roto-rooter" - sinus resections - surgeries.

Likewise, Mammograms and Colonoscopies.

If you have satisfactory experience with any of these proceedures
(or know other satisfied users) in either of those areas, please
respond directly to me skipgundlach at gmail dot com.

Thanks.

We now return you to your regular programming.

You're kidding, right? A satisfactory experience with massive
laxatives, anal douches and probes up the gazoo? :(

You've clearly been going to the wrong practitioner. A small
purgative, emptying your colon, no enema or douch, and enough feel-
good meds to have you semi-conscious, but a side effect of not
remembering a thing when it's over.

Midazolam is a wonderful drug.
You wouldn't believe the number of patients I've sent for tests who, when
asked how it was, actually deny they have had it and think they are still
waiting for it. They usually believe us when we show them the pictures of
the inside of their colon/stomach/whatever ;-)

WARNING: This product warps space and time in its vicinity.
WARNING: This product attracts every other piece of matter in the
Universe, including the products of other manufacturers, with a force
proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to
the distance between them.
CAUTION: The mass of this product contains the energy equivalent of 85
million tons of TNT per net ounce of weight.
HEALTH WARNING: Care should be taken when lifting this product, since
its mass, and thus its weight, is dependent on its velocity relative to
the user.
ADVISORY: There is an extremely small but nonzero chance that, through a
process known as "tunneling," this product may spontaneously disappear
from its present location and reappear at any random place in the
universe, including your neighbor's domicile. The manufacturer will not
be responsible for any damages or inconvenience that may result.
COMPONENT EQUIVALENCY NOTICE: The subatomic particles (electrons,
protons, etc.) comprising this product are exactly the same in every
measurable respect as those used in the products of other manufacturers,
and no claim to the contrary may legitimately be expressed or implied.
CONSUMER NOTICE: Because of the "Uncertainty Principle," it is
impossible for the consumer to find out at the same time both precisely
where this product is and how fast it is moving.
NOTE: The most fundamental particles in this product are held together
by a "gluing" force about which little is currently known and whose
adhesive power cannot therefore be permanently guaranteed.
ATTENTION: Despite any other listing of product contents found hereon,
the consumer is advised that, in actuality, this produce consists of
99.999999999999% empty space.
HANDLE WITH EXTREME CA This product contains minute electrically
charged particles moving at velocities in excess of five hundred million
miles per hour.
READ THIS BEFORE OPENING PACKAGE: According to certain suggested
versions of a grand unified theory, the primary particles constituting
this product may decay to nothingness within the next four hundred
million years.
PUBLIC NOTICE AS REQUIRED BY LAW: Any use of this product, in any manner
whatsoever, will increase the amount of disorder in the universe.
Although no liability is implied herein, the consumer is warned that
this process will ultimately lead to the heat death of the universe.
NEW GRAND UNIFIED THEORY DISCLAIMER: The manufacturer may technically be
entitled to claim that this product is ten-dimensional legal rights
above and beyond those applicable to three-dimensional objects, since
the seven new dimensions are "rolled up" into such a small area that
they cannot be detected.
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO PURCHASERS: The entire physical universe, including
this product, may one day collapse back into an infinitesimally small
space. Should another universe subsequently re-emerge, the existence of
this product in that universe cannot be guaranteed.
PLEASE NOTE: Some quantum physics theories suggest that when the
consumer is not directly observing this product, it may cease to exist
or will exist only in a vague and undetermined state.
THIS IS A 100% MATTER PRODUCT: In the unlikely event that this
merchandise should contact antimatter in any form, a catastrophic
explosion will result.

During the last of the little contact I had with the PO of my boat he told
me that their entire cruising season had just been wiped out because the
doctor or technician managed to poke the probe through his colon and
hospitalize him with peritonitis.

I would define a satisfactory experience as not having something like that
happen.

The technique to avoid that is don't joke about the procedure not being as
bad as going to the dentist while the doctor is doing the procedure. It
tends to elicit a lot of laughing at the wrong moment.

Huum... for the nose job? West Palm Beach. Look, the place is loaded with
very rich people who have
very large noses. If you get the drift..

The colon ? Miami. There are lots of assholes in Miami so the doctors are
familiar with them.

As for the boobs? Have that done when you get to the Bahama's.

Where did Anna Nicole Whatshername go for medical help? That's right, the
Bahama's.

And she had two of the most beautiful boobs [ ok, so what if they were
fake ] in the world.

Just don't invite any family members to visit you while in the Bahama's
medical tent.

It just does not work out.
