My wife is allergic to certain medications. They’re listed on her medical record at Carle. Have been for several years now. Plus each visit to the doctor she fills out the form stating what she’s allergic to. And answers the same question from everyone who deals with her.
What type of allergic reaction you ask? It will crash her blood pressure. Fortunately she was in the hospital when we discovered this fact several years ago. Her room filled up fast with medical personnel who soon stabilized her.
So if you were a doctor prescribing medicine to her, would there be any particular ones you’d NOT choose? I kinda thought so too. Well, today the doctor prescribed medicine she’s allergic to. And the pharmacist said, “it’s only got a small amount (of the medicine you’re allergic to).”
Isn’t that like a chef serving up dinner and saying, “it only has a slight amount of poison.” Enjoy.
