WTF My wife scheduled me for a physical.

My dad has diabetes (recently diagnosed), my uncle was just diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, which I haven't even had the chance to research, so I guess she figures I need to be checked out. I've been calling the doc's office but keep getting a busy signal.

I'm sure there's a million answers to this but just in case there's a "standard physical," what should I expect?

I'm a little concerned because i'm on test 250mg/week. I doubt he runs that type of lab. Probably cholesterol and the like, right?

Go get checked, homey. Pancreatic cancer is absolutely nothing to fuck with.

They may - and very well should - check both your liver and kidney functions. Um...I'm going to take a mad stab and say they should be fine...or there should be no indications of abnormality due to 250 mgs of TE a week.

I wish I could have skipped my last inj (or two) and asked to check my levels. I doubt he'd do anything though.

After doing some reading, it sounds like the surgery required for my uncle is pretty nasty. This guy is a little off. Mom says he came back from Nam that way. He's a good guy but does just enough to survive and has been semi-homeless as far as I can remember. I do remember that he stayed with us when i was real young. Him and my old man would fist fight in the front yard. Damn...

Believe it or not, I knew a guy that survived. That's how I found out about that pitiful statistic. It is a very painful death from what I learned also. Michael Landon is a case in point....Father William Cunninham too for you guys from Detroit (Founder: Focus Hope).

Oh, i'm going. My only fear is that it's at 8:30 and i'm not sure what the weather is going to be for that poor doc down there. I'm usually in the shitter at that time.
