Guest guest Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 , I had a severe allergic reaction from IV iodine contrast during a CT scan. So i went around this past winter with IODINE ALLERGY in bold sharpie on the inside of one arm and Sharon's cell phone number on the other. I had MANY compliments from various ER staff at how smart that was. Not to toot my own horn, in fact I was afraid of being in a traffic accident, or just going into hepatic coma. Anyone with encephalopathy can become completely disoriented with no warning. Check out this post from Beth, a nurse blogger. Included is my comment to her. By the way she linked my blog to hers, I was so excited.(it's down on the bottom of her blog list) http://www.pixelrn.com/2007/07/dear-patient.html ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Park yourself in front of a world of choices in alternative vehicles.
