The doctor's reaction was due to the tremendous amount of stupid she just encountered.

1: That happened -_-

2: the doctor likely had to vent a few choice words before dealing with yet another SJW.

A doctor I work with asks obese women for urine for pregnancy tests as a joke. Their faces always seem shocked. He 's a good guy.

I'll be honest, I've walked out on patients before.

Every single time it was because I had to leave before I punched them in the throat or said something that would get me kicked out of residency, those patients were THAT insufferable.

I'm guessing this doctor was thinking along similar lines.

Boston University had a study earlier this year suggesting that the immune system has a poorer response in those with obesity. So you would be more susceptible to strep is obese, and have a harder time recovering from an infection.

"Obesity, like other states of malnutrition, is known to impair the immune function, altering leucocyte counts as well as cell-mediated immune responses."

Source. So, yes Mayo Sue. You do get sick more often than normal people. Keep on winning HAES.

"I went to the drs about the flu. The Dr then asked me about the gaping infested whole in the side of my face. I said what, are people with gaping infected holes in the side of their face more likely to get a cold then people without gaping infected holes in their face".

It's the same principle....the dr is being good, identify clear issues in addition to the problem presented, before they get worse.
