There are these fantastic discharge prescriptions that aren't actual prescriptions.
Things like rest and drink plenty of water and Nana's chicken soup.
Take Tylenol or Motrin for a fever.
And then if things a week later are still in the same place or things worsen, then call me back and then we treat with antibiotics.
I really was drawn to the idea of how important the choice of what drug was the key decision, what drug is right for this patient.
I pretty immediately realized that regardless of what nonspecific garbage was listed on the allergy list,
It really changed care, and I just got totally distracted as to, like, does it need to change care?
Why is there a two-tier system?
If you have an allergy, you treat with this, but everyone else who doesn't have an allergy gets this.
I realized that what we were calling allergy was mostly side effects.
Something way too big to hammer in the nail.
Some sort of mallet is like, you know, I don't do tools and hardware.
Sure.
Maybe could get the job done, but by kind of making a mess.
If I were to see something like five patients for this a week myself...
And I've been doing it for over a decade.
We're near 3,000 patients.
I've seen probably 20 allergic.
Yeah, they present to my clinic at the suggestion of their primary or their surgeon or themselves.
Yeah, I would say it's probably been 3,000 patients that I've seen myself in.
