John was a clerk in a small chemist shop but he was not much of a salesman. He could never find the item the customer wanted. Peter, the owner, had had about enough and warned John that the next sale he missed would be his last. Just then a man came in coughing and he asked John for their best cough syrup. Try as he might, John could not find the cough syrup. Remembering Peter’s warning he sold the man a box of laxative pills and told him to take them all at once. The customer did as John said and then walked outside and leaned against a lamp post. Peter had seen the whole thing and came over to ask John what had happened. “He wanted something for his cough but I couldn’t find the cough syrup. So I substituted laxatives and told him to take them all at once,” John said. “Laxatives won’t cure a cough,” Peter shouted angrily. “Sure they will,” John said, pointing at the man leaning on the lamp post. “Look at him! He’s too afraid to cough…” |

“The patient was worried. “Are you sure it’s pneumonia, doctor?” he asked, “I’ve heard of cases where a doctor treated a patient for pneumonia, and he ended up dying for something else.” “Don’t worry,” said the doctor. “When I treat a patient for pneumonia, he dies of pneumonia.” |

In Response to Re: Joke thread! Medically related only please!: This probably doesnt count as a joke, more like a funny story. My GP told me he was examining an elderly man's chest and went behind him to listen to his chest. He began to pull his shirt up but it was really hard to come untucked from the patients trousers. He pulled harder and only when he had pulled the shirt up to his upper back did he realize that he was actually pulling on the poor patient's underpants.. Talk about ATOMIC WEDGIE!! Posted by Vivienne_E Really a good funny story! |
