Too Much Information!
I'd been asked a number of times by my specialist and the nurse who arranged my pre-admission check through, "Do you have any other questions?" My standard answer, "No."
But I did have one and last week plucked about the courage to ask my doctor. You see I had a reasonable idea of what a catheter is but thought they can't really insert it right up there on a bloke can they, can they?....Yes, they can!
My doctor proceeded to draw me a detailed diagram of what it would be like. I wish I hadn't asked!
I've just had a friend from New Zealand email me and advise "...the better your knowledge then you can engage with your professional at a higher level and get a better and sometimes quicker result." I'm sure it works well in accountancy and law, Deane but not with the medical profession. Not for me anyway.
That ones definately a case of 'too much information!'
