No kidding

Mrs. Morton: "Yes, ether makes me lose consciousness."

    My favorite answer to that question thus far has been...

    "Yes, caffiene keeps me awake."

    Hmm, I like that one.

    Another favorite of mine--I'm allergic to lasix, it made me pee too much.

    I think she is related to my patient who's children were allergic to water. If she left them in the tub too long, their skin wrinkled...

    Better than presenting a list of 500+ medications and when you ask them what kind of an allergy it was, they say something like "oh, I had an upset stomach"...

    Clearly, I have a severe allergic reaction to ethanol. It has all sorts of physiological effects, along with some social mistakes and that incident with the neighbor girl a couple of years ago...

    Damn.

    Once I invited some friends over for dinner and asked them all if they had any food allergies or problems I should be aware of.

    One responded, "I'm not very fond of ground glass."

    Been using that since!

    medschoolodyssey, my father's friend believed until his dying day that he was allergic to ethanol because the first time he drank he had six beers in a row and threw up. Tru fax.

    Ha ha, medschoolodyssey. Reminds me of a line I heard once: I'm allergic to alcohol. Every time I drink I break out in handcuffs.
