Is it that girls are sick more often than guys or is it that guys just resolutely refuse to recognise the signs that they are sick?

I recall distinctly on one occasion, not my regular doctor (he was on vacation), asking me how on earth I was walking (ingrown toenail) and was I taking any painkillers...

I told him no, I have utter horror of most pills, I don't for example ever recall having a headache per say, so aspirin and paracetamol are entirely foreign to me...

Anyway back to the disbelieving doctor...

Well I said... No painkillers.

But I am drinking alot more.

Snarf.

AND I STILL HAVE TENDONITIS.

Apparently.

Your solution by the way.

Nearest Irish Pub.

HOT WHISKEY.

I like how you said you have an utter horror of most pills. It left me wondering which ones you favor. *smirk*

I've diagnosed myself with an infection in both ears as well as my throat, but have I been to the ER for anything for it? No. I have better things to do.

I can sympathize with wrist pain, Im starting to believe mine is arthritis. And I've heard quite enough "double-clicking my mouse" jokes, thank you.

Would you think I was lying if I said we dont have an Irish pub here? Because Im not lying. We dont need to fake being Celtic or alcoholic, this is Cape Breton.
