I was always shocked when I went to the doctor's office and they did my X-ray and didn't find that I had eight more ribs than I should have or that my blood was the color green.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There's nothing you can do about busted ribs. You just have to wait for them to pop back into place again.
I had a test on my kidneys a few weeks back and found out I have two.
Too many radiologists still believe there is a risk from a chest x-ray. Few radiologists can explain radiation to the patient in words the patient can understand.
Too often you see someone fall, break a rib, go in to the doctor and discover a tumor.
The doctors x-rayed my head and found nothing.
I have a huge rib cage, which is why I can hold a note out until I'm blue in the face... because I have such a big lung capacity.
When I told my doctor I couldn't afford an operation, he offered to touch-up my X-rays.
That was just kind of a surprise when the doctor said, 'We did a biopsy on your appendix, and you have cancer.'
Rumors, stories... I'm used to them. I got my ribs removed, I was on 'The Wonder Years'... You know there's a different story every day.
I heard that I have three ribs, that I have more surgeries than Cher - whatever they say, they say; I know who I am.
