Folks, I suggest everybody go look through their medical records. I was handed, at my HMO, what I thought was a copy of paper containing the referral for some routine tests, the annual checkup kind, but when I looked at it a while ago, I saw that I had, by accident, been handed a copy of a synopsis of my medical history. This synopsis contains three startling items. One, in three places, it said I have a risk factor of tobacco use. Two, it said I have suffered, on three occasions, a sexually transmitted disease. Three, it said I have a risk factor of hypertension.
I have never smoked a cigarette in my life. I have never had a sexually transmitted disease in my life. I have low normal blood pressure.
I will be shortly paging through both my medical records and my husband's in a search for more oddities, and suggest you all do the same. |
