I agree with the simple guy as far as everything making sense as normal values for the most common things that are usually measured.
I also stared at the T value of 10.8. One possibility is that you misread the number and you have a slightly elevated body temperature from the usual of 100.8F. The other option for T is that he found something that could be serious and he wants to make sure to bill you for the visit before you expire in 10.8 days.

BP/P/R are as expected but T -10.8 does not make sense.
10.8, neither Centigrade nor Fahrenheit would not be a recorded temperature for a human.
100.8 F would be no surprise.
