So, I went to the dermatologist…

I had this skin thing on the back of my neck. Under my hair.

I did some research, picked the doc, hoping for a real one. I go in the office… not bad.. most of the time you go in and they are basically a beauty product shop. But this one is just.. a doc office. Maybe he is real?

Then I go in. Theres the interviewer who tells the doc whats up so he can quickly do some you tube searching.. lol. Then the doc comes in. Shaved head. Ok.

He goes in. Looking. AH Ha! I think I know what this is! (Me: oh good. This will be a quick tube of ointment, and all done!)

Him: You have psoriasis, its incurable! Then his hands go waiving in the air, him explaining how the cells grow slow or something. I don’t remember. I was kind of in a daze.

Im feeling like I’ve seen this movie before.

No scraping.. not tubes of ointments… fungal bacterial… nothing. Just played the incurable card first off.

Hes acting like we are going to be great friends over the years. Tells me to call him Doc K.. instead of kilpack or whatever.

I go home and dig up some old anti-fungal cream and steroid cream and antibiotic ointment. Mixed anti fungal and steroid for two weeks. Then anti biotic and steroid for two weeks. Its been about three months now and everything seems fine.

You may ask why… did he post that here? Lol

We understand why you posted here.......... cause you're thinking about tattooing the doctor's name on you chest (under your chest hair) and want to know which font to use.

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Well at least you picked a doc and not the skin thing.

And both are gone! Lol

But this list of Quacks I’m tatooing down my chest is getting quite long. Might need to go for a smaller font than J-o-h-n is suggesting.

Not what you're looking for?
