with a big glass of water when you wake up. Take the blue pill with a big glass of water after you eat lunch. Then just before going to bed, take the red pill with another big glass of water.'
Startled to be
put on so much medicine, the man stammered, 'L...........L.......L.........Lummee, Doc, exactly what is my problem?'
The doctor replied, 'Arnie, you're not drinking enough water.'

The Five Best, Clean and Hilarious Conversations Overheard in
Hospital
Doctor : Are you on HRT? Patient : No, income support.
Overheard in Sunnyside Clinic, Fratton, as a receptionist
spoke to an obviously hard-of-hearing client, 'No Mrs Jones, not
the HEARSE, I'm sending the NURSE.'
A consultant at St Mary's Hospital, Portsmouth, England tells me
that while passing through a frantic ENT [Ear, Nose and Throat]
clinic, he overheard this curious bit of conversation:
Senior surgeon (angrily) : 'For goodness sake, nurse, get me
my auriscope.' [a medical device which is used to look into the
ears].
Distracted young nurse : 'But doctor, I don't even
know your star sign.'
A former radiologist from Northern Ireland working at the Royal
Belfast hospital tells that years ago, kitted up in leaden apron and
gloves, he was conducting a radiographic examination of a woman's
abdomen.
Finding that her clothing was
causing some opacity on the fluorescent screen, he remarked,
'Would you pull down your knickers, please?'
The patient
did nothing so he repeated the request. He then heard her say,
'I'm so sorry, doctor. I thought you were talking to the nurse.'
While I was waiting to see the orthodontist at Queen
Alexandra Hospital, a woman came out of his surgery smiling. Nodding
to me, she said, 'Thank goodness my work is completed. I'm so
relieved to have found a painless dentist and one who's so gentle
and understanding too.' When seated in the dentist's chair, I
related the incident to him. He laughed heartily and explained, 'Oh,
that was just my Mother.'
