Excuse Me, But What's Wrong With You?

I know how much y'all enjoy my stories from work so I thought I'd add a little something else to make you giggle.

Part of my job entails me finding diagnosis codes for the visits. Every once in a while I come across a bizarre code that makes me laugh, so I thought I'd share some of the crazy diagnosis's I've come across.

Artificial vagina
bird face
beer drinkers heart
black hairy tongue
cheese itch (another term for a yeast infection perhaps?)
devil's pinches (it didn't specify where he pinches, so be careful)
dirt eating child
fat disturbance
lone star fever
Monday fever (I get this every week, maybe I should be concerned)
romanus lesion (watch out the lesion that roams your anus!)
hysterical spasm (I didn't see a code for docile spasm)
spastic child (seriously, there's a code for a spastic child!)
spastic constipation ( isn't that a contradiction in terms?)
watermellon stomach
wandering tongue rash ( watch where you put your tongue on someone with a rash!)

I really hope none of you ever experience any of illnesses, but if you do you'll have to forgive me if I giggle at you!

We call my brother's watermelon stomach, a pot belly. Maybe these are the 'politically correct' terms(?).

Those are priceless. I may have watermelon boobs. Or more likely banana boobs! I used to know a guy with grapenuts.

lone star fever? What. the hell. is that? Like if you leave Texas for any length of time? Hey wait, didn't you just move from Texas? You moved from somewhere to Utah, and in my mind's eye it was from somewhere south....wasn't it?
