About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

While it's the opposite situations in hospitals.

Torn uterus as a labour complication? Have some ibuprofen! Oh your husband has a stiff neck? He gets a prescription drug to handle the unimaginable pain.

Why use lidocaine on women during catherization? Surely the length of the urethra is more important than the diameter!

A study found out that women were more likely to die than men in surgery, when operated on by a male surgeon. Female surgeons are a safer bet. Turns out you shouldn't go into surgery when you are sick. And women weren't taken seriously by male surgeons as much when mentioning not feeling too well.

Got me thinking again about how many people in medicine assume you're lying all the time, is this projection? Are doctors constantly lying so they assume everyone else is? Why is it so hard to just believe people, jfc...

I'm so goddamn sick of having to fight a system that's meant to support me...

Why is it so hard to just believe people, jfc…

I'm not a doctor, I fix computer issues. But the people having the issues do lie all the fucking time, because they want to shift blame, get faster service, or simply hide the mistakes they made.
I could imagine it's similarly frustrating for doctors.

Reminds me of ER doctors saying that somehow men always seem to fall onto all sorts of things when they sit down naked and those things get accidentally lodged up their asses.

Yeah, it would be so much better if everybody was just upfront about it during anamnesis:

How, do you think, did this contraption become lodged in your rectum?
I put it up my ass.
Why did you put it up there?
It was an experiment.
What was the purpose of this experiment?
To find out what I can put up my ass.
