1. A man comes into the ER and yells, "My wife's going to have her
baby in the cab. I grabbed my stuff, rushed out to the cab,
lifted the lady's dress, and began to take off her underwear.
Suddenly I noticed that there were several cabs -and I was in
the wrong one.

2. At the beginning of my shift I placed a stethoscope on an elderly
and slightly deaf female patient's anterior chest wall. "Big
breaths, "I instructed. "Yes, they used to be," replied the
patient.

3. One day I had to be the bearer of bad news when I told a wife
that her husband had died of a massive myocardial infarct. Not
more than five minutes later, I heard her reporting to the
rest of the family that he had died of a "massive internal fart."

4. During a patient's two week follow-up appointment with his
cardiologist, he informed me, his doctor, that he was having
trouble with one of his medications. "Which one?! " I asked.
"The patch. The nurse told me to put on a new one every six
hours and now I'm running out of places to put it!" I had him
quickly undress and discovered what I hoped I wouldn't see.
Yes, the man had over fifty patches on his body. Now, the
instructions include removal of the old patch before applying
a new one.

5. While acquainting myself with a new elderly patient, I asked,
"How long have you been bedridden?" After a look of complete
confusion she answered..."Why, not for about twenty years -
when my husband was alive."

6. I was caring for a woman and asked, "So how's your breakfast
this morning?" "It's very good, except for the Kentucky Jelly.
I can't seem to get used to the taste" the patient replied. I
then asked to see the jelly and the woman produced a foil packet
labeled "KY Jelly."

7. A nurse was on duty in the Emergency Room, when a young woman
with purple hair styled into a punk rocker Mohawk, sporting a
variety of tattoos, and wearing strange clothing, entered. It
was quickly determined that the patient had acute appendicitis,
so she was scheduled for immediate surgery. When she was com-
pletely disrobed on the operating table, the staff noticed that
her pubic hair had been dyed green and above it there was a
tattoo that read, "Keep off the grass." Once the surgery was
completed, the surgeon wrote a short note on the patient's
dressing, which said, "Sorry, had to mow the lawn."

8. As a new, young MD doing his residency in OB, I was quite
embarrassed when performing female pelvic exams. To cover my
embarrassment I had unconsciously formed a habit of whistling
softly. The middle-aged lady! upon whom I was performing this
exam suddenly burst out laughing and further embarrassing me.
I looked up from my work and sheepishly said, "I'm sorry. Was
I tickling you?" She replied, "No doctor, but the song you were
whistling was, "I wish I was an Oscar Meyer Wiener".
