All of my doctors have something like, "If this is an emergency, please hang up and dial 911" when you call.

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I think if your first instinct isn't to call a medical professional when your lips melt, there isn't much hope for you.
The one that always gets me is when drug commercials say "and if you experience [excessive bleeding/heart attack/death] while taking [drug], call your doctor." As if you wouldn't normally call your doctor over something as minor as that, but you know, since you're on this drug, you may as well.
Makes me wonder how many people when, say, their lips are melting decide to call and make an appointment for ... two weeks? ... in the future. Although there's probably been at least one.
I knew a woman who walked around on a broken foot for a week because she didn't want to go to the ER. She kept insisting it was just a sprain. She was finally convinced to go when it got worse instead of better. I can totally believe a "bad rash" not being enough to send some people to the hospital until their skin starts falling off.
I suppose. There was that guy with the 132 lb. scrotal tumor who didn't see a doctor until it was almost as big as the rest of him. If I wake up with horrible shooting pains in my groin one day, the only question will be if I should put on pants before going to the ER.
He's got big balls and he cannot die... His insurance may deny...
Wait, this is Boxed Set. How did this happen? Do all our conversations eventually turn to weird medical conditions?
You know, I've heard that as you get older, more and more your conversations will focus on your health.

When we get down to talking about our bowel movements I'm leaving.

I'm 64 ... waiting for this to kick in ....
I'm finally caught up on Preacher, and I'm still loving Tulip.
Her time spent with Pining Church Secretary was a lot better than the constant Pepe le Pew act with Jesse.
Yes, that was a very nice scene with them.
