Why do they stick stickers on the front of you chart at clinic... then cover the front with the lab work, xray, ect paperwork paperclipped over the front of it. due to my sever allergy to iodine there are 5 sticker on my chart..
my heart almost stopped (not literally) well maybe yes literally. I went to the infusion lab yesterday my 4th trip in there to have a pint of blood drained off and thrown in the trash again, not sure who was more scared me or the nurse when I saw the betadine swab headed to my arm, didnt realize I yelled but evidently the aftermath proved I must have yelled the NOOOOOOO and jerked my arm away from her and pushed her betadine soaked swab and hand away from me. I snatched the drape she had put under my arm and started trying to wipe off what had already been swiped onto my inner elbow area... another nurse came running over and started with alcohol helping get it wiped off. Thank God for benedryl in my bag on Johnny Walker Red. Lucky only rash and itching left of it.
I appologized for scaring the --- out of her but ya know she never said she was sorry for putting it on me. I actually tried to make a joke that "been thinking of getting tatooed "allergic to iodine" put on my body. guess bracelets and BIG stickers are not enough
