I just saw a patient who was waiting for his IVF ( in vitro fertilisation) treatment, and he seemed very tense and nervous. I asked him the reason, and he seemed very embarassed and hesitant. After considerable prodding, he finally blurted out, " Doctor, I am very scared about the possibility of my sperm being mixed up with someone else's in the IVF lab ".
I took him in the lab and showed him how we ensure this doesn't happen, after which he was much happier and very relieved.
The moral of the story is simply - The doctor cannot read your mind ! Let him know what your worries are, so he can allay them - after all, that's his job !
Remember, there is no such thing as a stupid question. " The only stupid question is the one you don't ask !"
Hi there " Dr Aniruddha Malpani, MD " --- I was in the search engines researching SEO Software when I came upon your blog..... I don't know if you are out of place in the engines, or I am out of place and just don't realize it :-)
