Charts can be misplaced or, worse yet, switched with someone else's.

This happened to me as well (docs wort of made these decisions without informing me during my wisdom tooth extraction) and I reacted <i>reeeaeaaaalllyyy</i> poorly to the anesthesia. It would be nice to know what it was in case I need to avoid it in the future. Why don't they let the patients in on this????<br /><br />Anyway, that aside, I'm glad to hear that you're recovering.

They made me irritable and the euphoria rush was really disconcerting, like to the point where I was sure I could easily become addicted.<br /><br />I can see the writing-on-lower-abdomen being much better than trying to write on your cervix, especially when it comes to looking at the writing later. But I don't get why docs have to write on your person instead of on your chart. I guess to keep from mixing you up and pulling out your appendix unnecessarily?<br /><br />Sleep well!Jason Thibeaulthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01595673310069068735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38764987.post-65078784097001807042009-11-05T13:58:33.770-06:002009-11-05T13:58:33.770-06:00Enjoy your nap and thanks for the update.
