High Blood Pressure

Went to the doctor for my yearly physical.

The nurse starts with certain basics.

How much do you weigh?" she asks. "115," I say.
The nurse puts me on the scale. It turns out my weight is 150.

The nurse asks, "Your height?"
"5 foot 8," I say. The nurse checks and sees that I only measure
5' 5-1/2".

She then takes my blood pressure and tells me it is very high.

"Of course it's high!" I scream, "When I came in here I was tall
and slender! Now I'm short and fat!"

She put me on Prozac.
