Alcoholism + paraplegic bee (4 vs 6 legs) + trapezius + umbilicus + me on a Sunday afternoon (Where did you get that pic? Damn you Google Street View!) = .... ?
I must admit I liked the "innie flash" element. The guy, believe it or not, was the mayor of Portland Oregon (my original home town.) That picture is on posters titled "Expose Yourself to Art." You can look it up. I think it was the picture that led to his election. As it were.
I'm a mostly retired general surgeon. With this blog, my intention is to inform, entertain, and possibly educate the reader about surgery, and about the life and loves of a surgeon: this one, anyway.
In an amazing coincidence, I've also written a book, "Cutting Remarks; Insights and Recollections of a Surgeon." It's about my surgical training in San Francisco in the 1970s, aimed at the lay reader with the goal of entertaining with good stories, informing with understandable details of surgical anatomy, procedures, and diseases. Knowing you, I bet you'd enjoy it. In fact, if you like Surgeonsblog, you'll absolutely love the book!
What I say here is as true as I can make it, based on my experience as a surgeon. Still, in no way is it intended as specific medical advice for any condition. For that, you need to consult your own doctors, who actually know you. I hope you'll find things of interest and amusement here; maybe useful information. But please, please, PLEASE understand: this blog ought not be used in any way to provide the reader with ideas about diagnosis or treatment of any symptoms or disease. Also, as you'd expect, when I describe patients, I've changed many personal details: age, sex, occupation -- enough to make them into no one you might actually know. Thanks, and enjoy the blog.
