Yogurt & Lots of Water

HER GYNECOLOGIST RECOMMENDED hiist in New York is French Dr Jean Claude Vigneron: ONLY BY APPOINTMENT So I made one

'You like New York better than Paris?' I asked

'In Paris, I dared to keep a car'

'My father is a urologist, too'

'Then he neron said, 'if he didn't knoas wrong with you'

'It's nonspecific,' I said I knew the history of my ailment well 'Sometimes it's nonspecific urethritis, once it was nonspecific prostatitis Another time, I had the clap - but that's a different story Once it was just a coerm But always, nonspecific'

'It looks very specific to neron said

'No,' I said 'Sometimes it responds to penicillin, sometimes sulpha does the trick Once, Furadantin cured it'

'There, you see?' he said 'Urethritis and prostatitis don't respond to Furadantin'

'Well, there,' I said 'You see? It was so else that time Nonspecific'

'Specific,' Vigneron said 'You can't get much more specific than the urinary tract'

He showed me On his examination table I tried to be calm He handed me a perfect plastic breast, as lovely a one as I've seen: realistic color and texture, and a fine, upstanding nipple

'My God '

'Just bite on it,' he said 'Forget about me'
